The Rise of Ethnic Politics in Latin America explores why
indigenous movements have recently won elections for the first time
in the history of the region. Raul L. Madrid argues that some
indigenous parties have won by using inclusive populist appeals to
reach out to whites and mestizos. Indigenous parties have managed
to win support across ethnic lines because the long history of
racial mixing in Latin America blurred ethnic boundaries and
reduced ethnic polarization. The appeals of the indigenous parties
have especially resonated in the Andean countries because of
widespread disenchantment with the region's traditional parties.
The book contains up-to-date qualitative and quantitative analyses
of parties in seven countries, including detailed case studies of
Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru.
