Abstract (lang="eng")
The author explores issues relating to indigenous justice systems and legal developments for indigenous peoples. She discusses constitutional reforms in Latin America which have established legal recognition of indigenous justice in the Andean region and application of ethnic pluralism principles in Ecuadorian and Bolivian constitutions. She discloses that years of lobbying by organizations favoring indigenous peoples have resulted to these reforms. She also acknowledges the way international human rights laws such as the United Nations (UN) Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples influenced states policies in Latin America.
