Honorable Mention for the 2019 Thomas McGann Book Prize from the
Rocky Mountain Council for Latin American Studies Mexico's National
Indigenist Institute (INI) was at the vanguard of hemispheric
indigenismo from 1951 through the mid-1970s, thanks to the
innovative development projects that were first introduced at its
pilot Tseltal-Tsotsil Coordinating Center in highland Chiapas. This
book traces how indigenista innovation gave way to stagnation as
local opposition, shifting national priorities, and waning
financial support took their toll. After 1970 indigenismo may have
served the populist aims of President Luis Echeverria, but Mexican
anthropologists, indigenistas, and indigenous people themselves
increasingly challenged INI theory and practice and rendered them
obsolete.
