Supports for Ethnic Identity in a Changing Mexican Village
Nelson, Cynthia
Ethnicity, 5, 1, 33-41, Mar 78
The Mexican village of Erongaricuaro, Michoacan, is both culturally and structurally mestizo. In this article a case is made for the existence of Tarascan ethnicity as a self identifying construct of the villagers. The phenomenon of ethnicity is explored from a broad anthropological (as well as from a local ethnographic) perspective. (GC)
