Book Description

October 1986
The Mapuche Indians, although continually under great pressure from Chilean social forces, have managed to retain significant traditional characteristics despite centuries of contact and conquest. In this vivid, consciousness-raising account, the author details the conflict between the forces for change and those for stability. Within the framework of this struggle, the complex relations between the Mapuche and the Chileans, and the adaptation of the Mapuche to their contemporary economic, political, and social environment are emphasized.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thorough Cultural Introduction, December 1, 2010
This review is from: The Mapuche Indians of Chile (Paperback)
Faron does an excellent job of thoroughly touching upon all aspects of Mapuche culture. His informative style is not only educational but also entertaining. The factual prose is interspersed with anecdotal narrative, brining the lives, culture, and history of the Mapuche into the lives of people who may never get to experience them first-hand.
