La reacción de los pueblso indígenas de Los Altos de Guatemala a la política social del régimen conservador de Rafael Carrera, particularmente a lo largo de la década de los años cincuenta del siglo XIX, permite establecer que dicha política continuó el proyecto liberal anterior de incluir a los indígenas en la vida cívica de la República mediante la realización de obras públicas diversas en sus pueblos. Tales obras incluyeron la creación de escuelas y promovieron un discurso de "progreso", pero ejercieron una constante e irritante presión fiscal y amenazaron el mando interno de los pueblos. La resistencia indígena se hizo cada vez más fuerte, y desembocó en piques y violencia, no menos que en la aparición de figuras mesiánicas indígenas que parecen marcar con aún mayor contundencia el deseo de restaurar la autonomía que se perdía.

A reação dos povos indígenas de Los Altos da Guatemala à política social do regime conservador de Rafael Carrera, particularmente ao longo da década de 1850, permite-nos estabelecer que essa política deu continuidade ao projeto liberal anterior de inclusão dos indígenas na vida cívica da República por meio da implementação de diversas obras públicas em suas aldeias. Essas obras incluíam a criação de escolas e promoviam um discurso de "progresso", mas exerciam uma pressão fiscal constante e irritante e ameaçavam o controle interno das aldeias. A resistência indígena tornou-se cada vez mais forte, culminando em conflitos e violência, principalmente no surgimento de figuras messiânicas indígenas que parecem enfatizar ainda mais fortemente o desejo de restaurar a autonomia que estava sendo perdida. Tal autonomia, e não os conflitos pela terra em si, constituía o problema central das comunidades. Dentro de um horizonte definido... Sección Etnohistoria, Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas.
