Nothing is by itself. My point was that restricting the discussion to BM or short-term contraction of economy is limiting.

Dipankar, TSJ: looks like you are right. I've been using the term that I was told is the preferred one i.e. Native American. But I find that many prefer 'American Indian' to Native American.
So we are in for terms like American Indian, Indian Indian, and Indian American .
