      ab: The writer discusses how constructions of Native American drinking serve to reinforce and reproduce colonial images of the Indian. He argues that most of what is known about Native American drinking is a form of colonial knowledge that emerges from a process wherein cultural beliefs and practices, biological entities and processes, and social interactions and pathologies are constructed through various institutions, disciplines, and intellectual images. He maintains that colonial knowledge attributes devalued characteristics and features to a specific group of people, in this case American Indians, in order to keep the colonized in a subjugated position relative to the colonizer.
