요약Across the Americas, Indigenous peoples continue to experience the enduring legacies of colonial dispossession, cultural erasure, and political exclusion. In response to this structural marginalization, Indigenous communities have adopted a wide range of strategies to navigate, negotiate with, or reject the authority of the settler state. These responses range from full assimilation and participation within state institutions to radical demands for autonomy and self-determination. While political science has increasingly recognized the importance of Indigenous politics, much of the existing literature continues to treat Indigenous populations as internally homogenous actors, often flattening the complexity of Indigenous identity and political behavior.This dissertation challenges assumptions of Indigenous homogeneity by investigating the sources of political and identity-based variation within the Mapuche people of Chile, the country's largest Indigenous group, representing approximately 10% of the national population. The Mapuche provide a compelling case for analyzing within-group variation: despite a shared history of dispossession, Mapuche communities pursue diverse political strategies. Some Mapuche individuals fully assimilate and identify primarily with the Chilean nation-state. Others straddle Indigenous and national identities, participating in democratic institutions to advocate for their communities. And others reject the Chilean state altogether, framing it as as an illegitimate settler-colonial occupier and mobilizing for territorial and political autonomy.This variation raises a fundamental set of questions: Under what conditions do Indigenous individuals choose to identify with, reject, or act independently of the state? Under what conditions do Indigenous communities engage with institutional channels such as voting, and when do they pursue counter-institutional forms of mobilization? And finally, how do state policies, particularly those tied to development and redistribution, shape Indigenous people's orientation toward the state?To address these questions, this dissertation presents three empirical papers, each of which examines a different dimension of the relationship between state policy and Indigenous political behavior: identity formation, collective secessionist mobilization, and electoral participation.The first paper, Extraction and Political Identity: The Effects of Chile's Forestry Plantations on Indigenous Identity, develops a novel theory linking extractive development to the erosion of national identity among Indigenous peoples. I argue that the expansion of extractive industries generates political alienation through three interrelated mechanisms: (1) environmental degradation that undermines traditional Mapuche livelihoods and cosmologies; (2) material resentment toward a state that facilitates corporate enrichment while continuing patterns of Indigenous dispossession; and (3) historical resentment, as contemporary extraction replicates the violence of past land loss during the colonial period. Using original data on industrial forestry subsidies under Chile's Decree Law 701 and two surveys on identity, I show that municipalities receiving higher levels of forestry subsidies have significantly higher rates of Mapuche-only identifiers. These findings suggest that state-supported extraction contributes to a rejection of Chilean national identity in Indigenous areas.The second paper, Extraction and Self-Determination: The Effects of Chile's Forestry Plantations on Self-Determination Events, investigates the emergence and spatial variation of the Mapuche self-determination movement. While not all Mapuche support autonomy claims, segments of the population have engaged in direct actions, ranging from land occupations and road blockades to arson attacks and peaceful demonstrations, challenging the legitimacy of the Chilean state. Frequently framed in public discourse as the "Mapuche Conflict," these actions are better understood as part of a broader political project of decolonization. Drawing from the same theoretical framework employed in the first paper, I argue that extractive development can trigger territorial resistance by rendering Mapuche livelihoods and worldviews incompatible with the state. Using spatial data on forestry subsidies, infrastructure investment, and a geocoded dataset of self-determination events from 1990-2021, I demonstrate that municipalities with higher levels of subsidized forestry are significantly more likely to experience both violent and non-violent Indigenous self-determination mobilization.The third paper, Land Subsidies, Land Back, and Voter Registration among the Mapuche in Chile, shifts from extraction to redistribution to assess whether the state can foster Indigenous political incorporation through land restitution. Building on the policy feedback literature, I argue that redistribution influences political behavior by shaping how Indigenous communities interpret the state's legitimacy and responsiveness. I examine two types of land policies under Article 20 of Chile's Indigenous Law: Article 20(a), which provides land to individual families based on need, and Article 20(b), which provides communal land restitution to Indigenous communities based on historical claims. While both aim to return land, they differ in design and symbolic meaning. I argue that 20(a) fosters closer ties to the state by positioning recipients as small landowners, while 20(b), with its land-back framing and bureaucratic hurdles, may deepen distrust in state institutions. Using a difference-in-differences design, I provide causal evidence that only 20(a) is associated with increased voter registration among Mapuche individuals, suggesting that the institutional design of land policies conditions their political effects.Together, these three papers offer an empirically rich and theoretically grounded account of how state interventions shape Indigenous people's orientation toward and engagement with the state. By moving beyond assumptions of Indigenous uniformity, this dissertation demonstrates that Indigenous political identity and participation are not static but are contingent on state policies, historical memory, and the material realities of territorial governance.

■520    ▼aAcross  the  Americas,  Indigenous  peoples  continue  to  experience  the  enduring  legacies  of  colonial  dispossession,  cultural  erasure,  and  political  exclusion.  In  response  to  this  structural  marginalization,  Indigenous  communities  have  adopted  a  wide  range  of  strategies  to  navigate,  negotiate  with,  or  reject  the  authority  of  the  settler  state.  These  responses  range  from  full  assimilation  and  participation  within  state  institutions  to  radical  demands  for  autonomy  and  self-determination.  While  political  science  has  increasingly  recognized  the  importance  of  Indigenous  politics,  much  of  the  existing  literature  continues  to  treat  Indigenous  populations  as  internally  homogenous  actors,  often  flattening  the  complexity  of  Indigenous  identity  and  political  behavior.This  dissertation  challenges  assumptions  of  Indigenous  homogeneity  by  investigating  the  sources  of  political  and  identity-based  variation  within  the  Mapuche  people  of  Chile,  the  country's  largest  Indigenous  group,  representing  approximately  10%  of  the  national  population.  The  Mapuche  provide  a  compelling  case  for  analyzing  within-group  variation:  despite  a  shared  history  of  dispossession,  Mapuche  communities  pursue  diverse  political  strategies.  Some  Mapuche  individuals  fully  assimilate  and  identify  primarily  with  the  Chilean  nation-state.  Others  straddle  Indigenous  and  national  identities,  participating  in  democratic  institutions  to  advocate  for  their  communities.  And  others  reject  the  Chilean  state  altogether,  framing  it  as  as  an  illegitimate  settler-colonial  occupier  and  mobilizing  for  territorial  and  political  autonomy.This  variation  raises  a  fundamental  set  of  questions:  Under  what  conditions  do  Indigenous  individuals  choose  to  identify  with,  reject,  or  act  independently  of  the  state?  Under  what  conditions  do  Indigenous  communities  engage  with  institutional  channels  such  as  voting,  and  when  do  they  pursue  counter-institutional  forms  of  mobilization?  And  finally,  how  do  state  policies,  particularly  those  tied  to  development  and  redistribution,  shape  Indigenous  people's  orientation  toward  the  state?To  address  these  questions,  this  dissertation  presents  three  empirical  papers,  each  of  which  examines  a  different  dimension  of  the  relationship  between  state  policy  and  Indigenous  political  behavior:  identity  formation,  collective  secessionist  mobilization,  and  electoral  participation.The  first  paper,  Extraction  and  Political  Identity:  The  Effects  of  Chile's  Forestry  Plantations  on  Indigenous  Identity,  develops  a  novel  theory  linking  extractive  development  to  the  erosion  of  national  identity  among  Indigenous  peoples.  I  argue  that  the  expansion  of  extractive  industries  generates  political  alienation  through  three  interrelated  mechanisms:  (1)  environmental  degradation  that  undermines  traditional  Mapuche  livelihoods  and  cosmologies;  (2)  material  resentment  toward  a  state  that  facilitates  corporate  enrichment  while  continuing  patterns  of  Indigenous  dispossession;  and  (3)  historical  resentment,  as  contemporary  extraction  replicates  the  violence  of  past  land  loss  during  the  colonial  period.  Using  original  data  on  industrial  forestry  subsidies  under  Chile's  Decree  Law  701  and  two  surveys  on  identity,  I  show  that  municipalities  receiving  higher  levels  of  forestry  subsidies  have  significantly  higher  rates  of  Mapuche-only  identifiers.  These  findings  suggest  that  state-supported  extraction  contributes  to  a  rejection  of  Chilean  national  identity  in  Indigenous  areas.The  second  paper,  Extraction  and  Self-Determination:  The  Effects  of  Chile's  Forestry  Plantations  on  Self-Determination  Events,  investigates  the  emergence  and  spatial  variation  of  the  Mapuche  self-determination  movement.  While  not  all  Mapuche  support  autonomy  claims,  segments  of  the  population  have  engaged  in  direct  actions,  ranging  from  land  occupations  and  road  blockades  to  arson  attacks  and  peaceful  demonstrations,  challenging  the  legitimacy  of  the  Chilean  state.  Frequently  framed  in  public  discourse  as  the  "Mapuche  Conflict,"  these  actions  are  better  understood  as  part  of  a  broader  political  project  of  decolonization.  Drawing  from  the  same  theoretical  framework  employed  in  the  first  paper,  I  argue  that  extractive  development  can  trigger  territorial  resistance  by  rendering  Mapuche  livelihoods  and  worldviews  incompatible  with  the  state.  Using  spatial  data  on  forestry  subsidies,  infrastructure  investment,  and  a  geocoded  dataset  of  self-determination  events  from  1990-2021,  I  demonstrate  that  municipalities  with  higher  levels  of  subsidized  forestry  are  significantly  more  likely  to  experience  both  violent  and  non-violent  Indigenous  self-determination  mobilization.The  third  paper,  Land  Subsidies,  Land  Back,  and  Voter  Registration  among  the  Mapuche  in  Chile,  shifts  from  extraction  to  redistribution  to  assess  whether  the  state  can  foster  Indigenous  political  incorporation  through  land  restitution.  Building  on  the  policy  feedback  literature,  I  argue  that  redistribution  influences  political  behavior  by  shaping  how  Indigenous  communities  interpret  the  state's  legitimacy  and  responsiveness.  I  examine  two  types  of  land  policies  under  Article  20  of  Chile's  Indigenous  Law:  Article  20(a),  which  provides  land  to  individual  families  based  on  need,  and  Article  20(b),  which  provides  communal  land  restitution  to  Indigenous  communities  based  on  historical  claims.  While  both  aim  to  return  land,  they  differ  in  design  and  symbolic  meaning.  I  argue  that  20(a)  fosters  closer  ties  to  the  state  by  positioning  recipients  as  small  landowners,  while  20(b),  with  its  land-back  framing  and  bureaucratic  hurdles,  may  deepen  distrust  in  state  institutions.  Using  a  difference-in-differences  design,  I  provide  causal  evidence  that  only  20(a)  is  associated  with  increased  voter  registration  among  Mapuche  individuals,  suggesting  that  the  institutional  design  of  land  policies  conditions  their  political  effects.Together,  these  three  papers  offer  an  empirically  rich  and  theoretically  grounded  account  of  how  state  interventions  shape  Indigenous  people's  orientation  toward  and  engagement  with  the  state.  By  moving  beyond  assumptions  of  Indigenous  uniformity,  this  dissertation  demonstrates  that  Indigenous  political  identity  and  participation  are  not  static  but  are  contingent  on  state  policies,  historical  memory,  and  the  material  realities  of  territorial  governance.
