危地马拉玛雅研究院院长[2]作为一位多产的学者和公共知识分子,科伊蒂深深影响了关于玛雅文化和政治权利的辩论。许多主流文化的拉丁美洲人将他与玛雅人最自信的要求联系在一起,直接挑战他们长期存在的种族特权。为了表达他们对这些挑战的焦虑,他们经常区分他们赞同的原则,如文化平等的想法,以及他们与暴力和冲突有关的”极端”玛雅要求。当被要求详细说明时,他们往往会转向个人:“啊,Demetrio Cojti,例如,他是100%激进的。3 1998年,我与Cojtl讨论了Arzi政府(1996-2000)对玛雅人的政策中机会和拒绝的矛盾组合,他简洁地总结道:“以前,他们只是告诉我们'不'。现在,他们的反应是‘是的,但是’。“当科伊蒂后来接受了新当选的波蒂略政府的教育部副部长一职时,猜测占了上风。他“卖光了”吗?他是来测试”是的,佩罗”的极限吗?为玛雅人控制国家的时期积累经验?波蒂略执政三年(2000-2004),我与一些拉迪诺学校的教师共进午餐,他们参加了2003年反对新自由主义裁员的教师罢工。当我提到几年前他们把科伊蒂描述成一个激进分子时,他们嘲笑道:“他现在是政府的一部分,比其他人更糟糕。"
" Dean" of Maya studies in Guatemala. 2 A prolific scholar and public intellectual, Cojti deeply influenced the debate on Maya cultural and political rights. Many dominant culture ladinos associated him with the most assertive of Maya demands that directly challenge their long-standing racial privilege. To express their anxieties about these challenges, they often distinguished between principles they endorsed, like the idea of cultural equality, and" extreme" Maya demands that they associated with violence and conflict. When asked to elaborate, they would often turn personal:" Ah, Demetrio Cojti, for example-he is 100% radical." 3In 1998, I talked with Cojtl about the contradictory mix of opportunity and refusal in the policies of the Arzi administration (1996-2000) toward Maya, which he summarized succinctly:" Before, they just told us' no.'Now, their response is' si, pero'['yes, but']." When Cojti later accepted the post of Vice Minister of Education in the newly elected Portillo government, speculation reigned. Had he" sold out"? Was he out to test the limits of" si, pero"? Gaining experience for a time when Mayas would control the state? Three years into the Portillo administration (2000-2004), I lunched with some ladino schoolteachers-participants in the teachers' strike of 2003 against neoliberal downsizing. They scoffed when I remarked that, a few years earlier, they had described Cojti as a radical:" He's part of the government now, even worse than the others."
