FIGUEROA, Isabela. Marginal legislation, misappropriation of native indians land, civilization in process: Ecuador and Colombia. Nómadas [online]. 2016, n.45, pp.43-57. ISSN 0121-7550.

This text concerns written legislation that both deprived native Indians of their lands and established the process of Internal Colonialism in Ecuador and Colombia until the 1990s in order to identify some of the approaches used by these nations to regulate both the subjectivity of indigenous peoples and the possession of their lands since 1835. It concludes that the Indian Legislation, as well as the Indians themselves, was in a state of lawlessness that was not included in their constitutions; therefore it was used for different purposes, using strategies to regulate the subjectivity of the native Indians and their lands with the objective of misappropriating their property and thus establishing the concept of sovereignty in both countries.

Palabras clave : colonialism; legislation; misappropriation; indigenous lands; Ecuador; Colombia.
