QUIROS-SOLIS, Pablo. El problema indígena en Severo Martínez Peláez y Mario Payeras. InterSedes [online]. 2021, vol.22, n.46, pp.1-27. ISSN 2215-2458.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/isucr.v22i46.47124.

Severo Martínez and Mario Payeras were two Guatemalan intellectuals who addressed different aspects of the political problem in their country. Martinez was interested in the problem of the oppressed during the colonial era, as a space of resistance and struggle; while Payeras, in his political texts, was concerned with analyzing the indigenous to integrate them into the National Liberation guerrilla project that he led. This marks some conceptual differences in their respective analyses. This paper seeks to understand the approaches of both in order to point out the uses they give to the conceptualization of the indigenous problem.
