SANCHEZ MARTINEZ, Luvia M.; PARRA VAZQUEZ, Manuel R. e ZAMORA LOMELI, Carla B.. Autonomy of Latin American Indigenous Peoples. Comparative Case Studies between Chilón (Mexico) and Charagua (Bolivia). Latinoamérica [online]. 2022, n.75, pp.93-121. Epub 22-Nov-2022. ISSN 2448-6914. https://doi.org/10.22201/cialc.24486914e.2022.75.57501.
In 2017, the Autonomous Peasant Native Indigenous Government was set on operation in Charagua, located in the Guaraní region of the Bolivian Chaco. During that same year, tzeltales from Chilón in the south of Mexico began their legal process for the recognition of their right to self-determination. This article provides an analysis and comparison of two indigenous autonomy projects: one under construction, the Community Government in Chilón; and another one in full operation, the Peasant Indigenous Autonomy of Charagua. The present analysis, made from the Resource Mobilization Theory approach, showed that both autonomic experiences share some similarities in their strategies, resources and actors. The conclusion is that there are a few patterns of behavior in the collective action of both experiences. Nonetheless, the structure of political opportunities determines the autonomic movements’ success.
