The rapid decline of indigenous languages represents one of the most troubling topics within applied linguistics. Teachers’ implementation of indigenous language planning through their pedagogical practices is a significant but under-researched issue. This ethnographic study examines a Maya language program (i.e., professional development) for 1,600 teachers in the Yucatan’s Intercultural Bilingual Education (EIB) system, and K-12 schools in Maya-speaking communities where they worked. Using longitudinal data (2010-2016), analysis centered on the creation and promulgation of the Norms of Writing for the Maya Language (2014) and related language policy. Findings illustrate: 1) the importance of increasing the quantity of Maya-speaking teachers, and 2) a clash between widespread orthographic variation in Maya and teachers’ standard language-culture. The new standard has not been implemented in EIB, which still does not in practice require Maya proficiency of teachers. This research discusses possible benefits and risks of a standard Maya for EIB.

<p class="Textofarticle" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10px;">Este art&iacute;culo enfatiza la importancia de develar la relaci&oacute;n entre lenguaje, educaci&oacute;n y globalizaci&oacute;n. Enfoc&aacute;ndonos en el caso de la Educaci&oacute;n Intercultural Biling&uuml;e en Chile y sus esfuerzos de revitalizaci&oacute;n del mapudungun, argumentamos que es posible desafiar la influencia negativa de la globalizaci&oacute;n si se hace expl&iacute;cita la relaci&oacute;n entre lenguaje, educaci&oacute;n y globalizaci&oacute;n. Igualmente se incluye la noci&oacute;n de globalizaci&oacute;n desde abajo (Appadurai, 2000) como lente principal para dicho argumento. Junto con esta propuesta, son centrales para este estudio las contribuciones de Freire (1970) y Bourdieu (1994). A trav&eacute;s de dichas perspectivas se analizan tres problemas derivados de la ausencia de un examen cr&iacute;tico de la globalizaci&oacute;n.

Focusing on the case of Intercultural Bilingual Education in Chile and its efforts to revitalize Mapudungun, we argue that the negative influence of globalization could be reduced if we make explicit the relationship between language, education and globalization. In this respect we include the notion globalization from below (Appadurai, 2000) a main lens for our argument. Along with this proposal, central to this study are the contributions of Freire (1970) and Bourdieu (1994). Through these perspectives, we analyze three problems arising from the absence of a critical analysis of globalization.

Este trabajo hace referencia a la oportunidad que puede representar la educación intercultural para la resignificación de las identidades de género, etnia y clase. Se reflexiona a partir de la investigación sobre educación realizada en el municipio de San Andrés Larráinzar o Sakamch’en de los Pobres, Chiapas. A partir de los resultados de investigación se argumenta que en el contexto actual en que se está practicando la educación intercultural bilingüe en Chiapas y en el marco de políticas educativas que no son construcciones propias de los pueblos indígenas significan nada más nuevas imposiciones simuladas con los discursos de respeto a la diversidad cultural.   SUMMARY This paper refers to the opportunity that can represent the intercultural education for re-meaning the gender, class and ethnic identities. The work is a reflection from the investigation made in the municipality of San Andrés Larráinzar or Sakamch’en in Chiapas. From the results of investigation is argued that in the present context that the intercultural bilingual education is practicing in Chiapas and in the context of educational policies are not people’s own constructions, mean nothing more new impositions simulated with the speeches of respect for cultural diversity.
