Abstract

The Dule Revolution of 1925 was an uprising of the Guna indigenous people in the San Blas region of Panama, in response to government oppression and the imposition of assimilationist policies. Through this movement, the Gunas managed to consolidate their autonomy, an act that represented a brief but significant conflict for this indigenous Panamanian community.

 

This event not only reaffirmed their cultural identity and self-determination, but also established the basis of the current system of governance of the Comarca Guna Yala. This paper analyzes the causes, development, and consequences of the revolution, contextualizing it within the indigenous struggle in Panama and Latin America.
