Abstract

TUAZA CASTRO, Luis Alberto. Comunidades indígenas de la provincia de Chimborazo, Ecuador:: permanencia de la sombra del régimen de hacienda. Anthropologica [online]. 2014, vol.32, n.32, pp.191-212. ISSN 0254-9212.

This paper analyzes current indigenous politics, from an approach to the indigenous communities historical process in the area of Guamote Totorillas, Ecuador. It is argued that after the dissolution of the hacienda system new forms of indigenous leadership emerged. The pervasiveness of ancient forms of leadership stemming from the hacienda system, though, prevent communities efforts to achieve unity and the design of a long term political project.

Keywords : communities; finances; politics and leadership.
