abstract:
The 'admission' of the rights of indigenous peoples affects the choices made by Latin American governments, promotes a reworking of the relationship 'man-nature', maintains a review of the 'individualism of contemporary culture', aims to rethink the management of 'common goods' and promotes the development of a sense of 'intergenerational justice'. According to the A., these are some of the milestones associated to the admission of the rights of indigenous peoples in Latin American constitutions, and that keep the essay going by the identification of some principles and operational rules common to several chthonic traditions of Latin America (Sumak Kawsay, Suma Quamaña, Lekil Kuxlejal, Ñande Reko). They jointly emphasize for scholars of Latin American law the need of the political anthropology of law, as well as the emersion of new elements for the identity of Latin America law system.
