Desafiando Leviatãs: experiências indígenas com o desenvolvimento, o reconhecimento e os estados.

Abstract

The work brings together works resulting from rigorous empirical research and launches innovative analytical perspectives on indigenous participation in politics, its relationship with justice and the State and the obstacles generated guaranteeing indigenous rights through the hegemonic model of development. The works demonstrate, on the other hand, the collective struggle of indigenous peoples and movements for greater inclusion, recognition and participation in national societies and, on the other hand, the resistance of governments and states to embrace and implement the rights indigenous peoples to their lands, resources and identities.
