Abstract
Este artículo tiene como objetivo examinar el impacto y las consecuenciassociales contemporáneas del mantenimiento del sistema de organización social denominado
«reserva indígena» en Canadá. Mediante un estudio de caso, se explora cómo
la política organizacional y la estructura institucional contemporánea en las reservas
indígenas canadienses están alimentando problemas psicosociales y de salud mental
como, por ejemplo, abuso de sustancias psicoactivas, depresión, negligencia parental o
violencia doméstica. Tres características estructurales se identifican como problemas
inherentes en la estructura organizacional de las reservas contemporáneas: el desempleo
estructural, la dependencia de programas de asistencia social y el faccionalismo
comunitario.
