Preferred term

tribal governance  

Definition

  • Indigenous peoples are the original inhabitants of a geographic space that was subsequently taken from them by outside peoples either by conquest, occupation, settlement, or some combination of all three. The social and political organizational structure of some indigenous peoples has historically been referred to as “tribal,” a problematic term not only for its inconsistent usage but also for the negative connotation often associated with it.
