GROS, Christian. América Latina: ¿identidad o mestizaje? La nación en juego. Desacatos [online]. 2002, n.10, pp.127-147. ISSN 2448-5144.

In this article the author examines the place granted to the Indian peoples in the Latin-American countries national project, during the period from their Independence to the current constitutional reforms. He then goes on to analyze what the recognition of the historicism of the indigenous peoples can signify: when they establish themselves, how a new ethnic "actor" intervenes and in what sense the State modifies its Indian affairs policy. Lastly, he explores the possibility of our facing the effective construction of new frontiers in the heart of nations which from now on will be designated as "multi-cultural".
