I PARTE Laura Collin Harguindeguy Antropología This paper analyses the social construction of identity, in order to identify the elements that cause the constitution of a negative self-identity among Indian peoples. Also, to point out how the devaluation was provoked by western people, and to underline some of the factors that influence in the devaluation process. Therefore the author remarks how the process works out against Indian societies and to the advantage of western societies.
