Translation note: In the Southern Cone—Chile, Uruguay, and Argentina—the phrase used for Indigenous peoples (pueblos originarios) is “Originary peoples.” The term “First Nations” (used primarily in Canada) is the closest in English but not quite the same. The author notes the imprecisions involved in translating Indigenous concepts from Mapuche to Spanish, which is a settler language. These imprecisions are replicated in the translation to English.
