This dissertation discusses how the INI has promoted development programs and indigenous rights at the local level. Based on the study of everyday practices of employees at INI, I discuss how between 1988 and 1998 the Mexican state not only redefined its responsibilities as a promoter of development, but also, by doing so has established a new set of rules governing how development should be achieved and what the object of development is. The following ethnography of INI workers shows how bureaucratic practices and discourses of indigenismo and mestizaje reproduce structures of power that shape the lives of both Indians and non-Indians.

520 $a This dissertation discusses how the INI has promoted development programs and indigenous rights at the local level. Based on the study of everyday practices of employees at INI, I discuss how between 1988 and 1998 the Mexican state not only redefined its responsibilities as a promoter of development, but also, by doing so has established a new set of rules governing how development should be achieved and what the object of development is. The following ethnography of INI workers shows how bureaucratic practices and discourses of indigenismo and mestizaje reproduce structures of power that shape the lives of both Indians and non-Indians.
520 $a I argued that indigenismo is a central element of the racial ideology and political project of mestizaje, in which "the state" justifies its hegemonic presence, its agendas, and its priorities, by identifying itself as mestizo and defining the Indian "other" as the object of intervention. That is, indigenismo not only defines indigenous identity as subject of integration, emancipation, and so on, it also defines the identity of the mestizo---the indigenista---as the redeemer, the developer.
520 $a The Indian and the indigenista are two faces of the same coin, and the existence of both is necessary to justify the Mexican state's modernizing project. As long as this relationship is not interrogated under the critical light of the historical social sciences, the everyday practices of indigenismo will persist. That is, as long as state power is based on the control over the definition of "others", we will continue to experience its insidious everyday effects.
