Description
Summary:This article proposes to analyse the place of Andean indigenous peoples in one of the policies of the Plurinational State: indigenous native peasant justice. Beyond the laudatory discourse regarding the indigenous population, some aspects of the plural justice system established by the 2009 Political State Constitution highlight a complex relationship between the government and indigenous representative bodies. The symbolic recognition of these peoples, long marginalized and excluded from power, overshadows a major fragmentation of the indigenous world in this country as well as a fantasized vision of indigenous people by state authorities, which contributes to destabilizing the daily resolution of local conflicts in rural Andean communities.
