摘要:This article examines Indian boarding schools in postrevolutionary Mexico and Bolivia, considering similarities in their removal from city to countryside, but also the very specific way each national elite discussed Indian education. It also focuses on relationships between Mexican and Bolivian educators, and their views on the other country’s experience in the field. As the analysis suggests, these experiences and debates are quite revealing of widespread ideas about the city (modern and civilized) and the countryside (primitive and backward), and about the countryside as the Indian natural proper place.
