| 15724. AMERINDIANS IN ARGENTINA. This paper examines the fact that only about one percent of the current total population of Argentina consists of Amerindians; this is attributed to harsh and uncaring treatment on the part of European explorers and settlers in the early history of the nation. Various factors are discussed, including forced labor, the introduction of new diseases, the mass immigration of Europeans, and the late 19th Century campaign to eliminate Amerindians in the pampas region. 11 pages, 36 footnotes, 8 bibliographic sources. |
