Article Title:Tourism, indigenous peoples and cultural heritage in Mexico and Chile
Abstract:
This article explores the incorporation of indigenous peoples into the heritage and tourism processes in Mexico and Chile. Both countries have had different historical developments, that could even be considered diametrically opposed to one another, with respect to their native peoples. However, in recent years both have coincided in developing State policies for the recognition of certain rights to cultural diversity. The increasingly frequent use of traditions, ceremonies, dances, music and other indigenous cultural expressions by the tourism industry, contrasts with the lack of recognition of the native peoples' collective rights over their territories. The touristization of the indigenous regions is a conspicuous example of how neoliberal multi-culturalism in Latin America incorporates indigenous peoples using specific premises and conditions at the same time as it excludes them by using other equally specific, protocols.
