JABLONSKA ZABOROWSKA, Aleksandra. Sociocultural Role of School Shelters in the Eyes of the National Indigenist Institute. Iztapalapa. Rev. cienc. soc. humanid. [online]. 2021, vol.42, n.91, pp.67-92.  Epub 01-Nov-2021. ISSN 2007-9176.  https://doi.org/10.28928/ri/912021/atc3/jablonskaa.

The objective of the essay is to critically analyze the discourse about the sociocultural role that the school shelters created by the National Indigenist Institute (INI) have played, based on the materials that are part of the Film and Video Collection Alfonso Muñoz, at the National Institute for Indingenous Peoples, including some produced by the Ethnographic Audiovisual Archive. Discourse is a contextualized social practice, therefore, changes in social policies of successive Mexican governments have also modified INI’s discourse on health, nutrition and education of indigenous children. The early assimilationist and assistentialist discourses, over time gave rise to the formal incorporation of multiculturalism, in tune with the project of neoliberal democracy. The analysis seeks to situate INI´s discourses within the framework of the political struggle for the representation of indigenous education in the last thirty years.
