CRUZ RUEDA, Elisa  y  SANTANA E., Ma. Eugenia. Legal recognition of cultural diversity without the exercise of rights?. Rev. pueblos front. digit. [online]. 2013, vol.8, n.16, pp.218-255. ISSN 1870-4115.  https://doi.org/10.22201/cimsur.18704115e.2013.16.78.

This article presents a review of how the rights of indigenous people and their communities have been legally recognized at a national and international level, as well as the legal and factual implications this has. From this review, an analysis is derived of how the juridical-anthropological construction of the concepts of pluriculturality and multiculturalism took place. It also shows what still needs to be done to attain an effective recognition of cultural diversity that can lay the foundations of an actual recognition and exercise of rights. Within this context, anthropological investigation may be a tool to help formulate public policies within and favoring diversity.

Palabras llave : pluriculturality; multiculturalism; indigenous rights; anthropological investigation.
