Abstract

BURGUETE CAL Y MAYOR, Araceli. De organizaciones indígenas a partidos étnicos: nuevas tendencias en las luchas indias en América Latina. LiminaR [online]. 2007, vol.5, n.2, pp.144-162. ISSN 2007-8900.  https://doi.org/10.29043/liminar.v5i2.256.

In this collaboration it is examined the recent transformations of the electoral policy in countries of South America, with emphasis in Ecuador and Bolivia, by virtue of the increasing incorporation of indigenous organizations in the fight by the political power, which has given rise to a new type of parties: the ethnic parties. With this trasfondo, I review the positionings of the main theoretical paradigms in the study of the social movements, as opposed to the relation between the political parties and the social movements. And I explore tracks that can give account of the scenes of construction of “ethnic parties” in Mexico.

Keywords : Indigenous organizations; social movements; political parties and ethnic parties.
