Resumen:
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.
