Abstract

The relationship between Mapuche indigenous people and the Chilean state has been the focus of an increasing number of books within Chile and abroad, all of which probe how the Mapuche have responded to past and present government policies. These publications are written by Mapuche and non-Mapuche academics, trained in the disciplines of anthropology, history, literature and sociology and, unlike previous historiography, they focus on Mapuche actors’ political negotiations with the state. The Mapuche in Modern Chile: A Cultural History by Joanna Crow dialogues with these publications and adds a new dimension to them by focusing on identity debates and cultural politics.
