no more domination

American Stereotypes? American Indian culture, whether Andina, Mexico, Amazon, Mapuche, Patagonia. In recent history has been a thousand times decimated, losing cultural patterns of identity and worldview. Based on these processes of acculturation and cultural assimilation by modern states and markets, I believe that American stereotypes come from a history of cultural domination based capitalist consumer lifestyles promotes artificialised and controlled.

If we were to talk about American stereotypes rather refer to them as cultural impositions tend to differentiate the indigenous cultural tradition of modernity and their new values, individuality, competition, segregation.

Chilean stereotypes? To say about the Chilean is friendly to strangers, which is "turncoat"is that some modest (in contrast with other Latin Americans) are just tricks of the imposition of modernism and European influences in the process of conquest and domination.

Thus I prefer to discuss the lost culture in the modern process of domination in the hands of the market rather than cultural patterns acquired in this process
