Do you have an opy? Politics and identity among the Mbya-Guarani of Argentina and Eastern Paraguay

The book focuses on the lively debates generated by the laws among both Guaraní communities and pro-Indian groups, analyzing most particularly how the Guaraní developed new political forms and strategies with respect to the larger society and how the latter, by displaying different positions taken with respect to pro-Indian laws, underwent a process of social consciousness and identity construction
