| Sumario: | The direct confrontation at local level between the Latin-American indigenous communities and the transnational companies supported by its legal and state systems without mediation of the national states as well as the migration forced by the cessation of support to the rural population and production has taken the indigenous Latin-American peoples to a new situation. In this new situation the ethnic social integration has no roots, is fragmented, and becomes more complex in a systematic confrontation that spreads not only on the national level but worldwide. Therefore, while it is a new structural situation, which in turn generates new forms of integration, conscience and action that go beyond the original identifications and ethnic differentiations with political movements which advance from local to global positions, from local representation to multiethnic, multiclass, national and even Latin-American regional, we can say that the Latin-American ethnicity like a form of specific social integration has turned into a new class of the global system, and that, filling the spaces left by the national states, its political movements are turning into referents, but especially options, for all social classes and social groups that are excluded from the functionality and the new social engineering imposed by the modernizing projects of such globalization |
