Summary:

Indigenous societies today face difficult choices: can they develop, modernize, and advance without endangering their sacred traditions and communal identity? Specifically, can their communities benefit from national education while resisting the tendency of state-imposed programs to undermine their cultural sovereignty, language, and traditions? According to Lois Meyer and Benjami;n Maldonado, these are among the core questions being raised by Indigenous societies whose comunalidad-or communal way of life-is at odds with the dictates of big business and the social programs of the state.-publisher description.
