MENDIETA MIRANDA, Maximiliano. The principle of equality and non-discrimination. Approaches to the structural discrimination of the Paraguayan State towards indigenous peoples. Derecho glob. Estud. sobre derecho justicia [online]. 2018, vol.4, n.10, pp.153-180.  Epub 14-Out-2020. ISSN 2448-5136.  https://doi.org/10.32870/dgedj.v0i10.199.

The aim of this article is to provide delimitations to the concept of structural discrimination in the context of the indigenous peoples that inhabit the Republic of Paraguay. In this sense this material studies the causes and consequences of structural discrimination. The methodology is based on the study and documentary review with a qualitative approach.

The indigenous peoples who live in Paraguay are in a situation of vulnerability due to structural discrimination of the Paraguayan State towards them. This is reinforced through actions or omissions that, observing the findings, generate an important gap in relation to access to human rights if the non-indigenous population is compared with the indigenous population.

In this context, it can be observed the privileges which received those who exploit the land through agribusiness to the detriment of the indigenous world views on the lands.

Palavras-chave : Human rights; indigenous peoples; ancestral land; racial discrimination; structural discrimination; Paraguay.
