PAZ FRAYRE, Miguel Ángel. The tohono o'otham, a culture in extinction: racialization and identitary strategies. Relac. Estud. hist. soc. [online]. 2014, vol.35, n.140, pp.229-266. ISSN 2448-7554.

This article seeks to analyze the category of 'culture in extinction' applied to the case of the Tohono O'otham people of Sonora by different governmental institutions. It is set in the historical, social and political context of this people. Here, the categorization imposed alludes to one of the forms in which racialization operates as a function of governmental policy, as is evidenced in both the processes of the configuration of ethnic identity and in the contemporary use of the maternal language within the group.
