While much has been written on indigenous policy in Bolivia and Ecuador, the indigenous presence in the Argentine experience has been largely overlooked, perhaps because of the strong state-led homogenizing tradition that has obscured the country's multiethnic character. A study of state formation and indigenous policy in northwestern Argentina focused on the Programa Social Agropecuario, launched during the 1990s, and its replacement, the Secretaría de Agricultura Familiar, established in 2006 under a new political model, shows an opening up of opportunities for indigenous organizations. At the same time, a private sector with excessive power persists. Strategies targeting the indigenous as a group have been useful for reversing the devastating effects of 1990s neoliberalism, but the formal incorporation of indigenous people into the state's structure risks the loss of their political and historical particularities. Si bien se ha escrito mucho sobre las políticas indígenas en Bolivia y en el Ecuador, la presencia indígena en la experiencia argentina ha sido en gran medida ignorada, quizás debido a la fuerte tradición homogeneizadora que, dirigida por el estado, oculta el carácter multiétnico del país. Un estudio sobre la formación del estado y política indígena en el noroeste de Argentina, usando como ejemplos el Programa Social Agropecuario (que fue lanzado en la década de los 90) y su sustituto, la Secretaría de Agricultura Familiar (que fue establecida en 2006 bajo un nuevo modelo político) muestra una apertura de oportunidades para las organizaciones indígenas. Al mismo tiempo, persiste un sector privado con un poder excesivo. Las estrategias dirigidas a los indígenas como grupo han sido útiles para revertir los efectos devastadores del neoliberalismo de la década de los 90, pero la incorporación formal de las comunidades indígenas a la estructura del estado trae el riesgo de la pérdida de las particularidades políticas e históricas de esas comunidades
