          Abstract

          A partir del teatro indígena, se exploran las razones por las cuales el relativismo no ha alcanzado un poder absoluto, pese a ser la ideología dominante en la época moderna. Se revisan los argumentos que han servido para contrarrestar peso a la influencia del relativismo en las interpretaciones sobre el teatro y el arte. Lo que se busca es motivar a la reflexión más que dar respuestas concluyentes, se examinan tan sólo algunos pasajes relevantes de la historia del teatro indígena contemporáneo, las categorías que tanto académicos como gente del común han empleado para designarlo, los criterios con los cuales se le ha evaluado; se evocan experiencias significativas del teatro universal, haciendo ver cómo la definición o la valoración del teatro es intrínseca a la concepción que se tiene del Otro.

          Translated abstract

          From the perspective of indigenous theater, this essay explores the reasons why relativism has not achieved absolute power, despite its position as the dominant ideology of modern times, by reviewing the arguments that have served to counterbalance the weight of the influence of relativism on interpretations of theater and art. What it seeks is to motivate people to reflect, instead of presenting conclusive answers, through the analysis of a few relevant passages from the history of contemporary indigenous theater, the categories that both scholars and common folk have used to designate it, and the criteria that have been used to evaluate it. The article evokes significant experiences from universal theater to demonstrate how the definition or appraisals of theater are intrinsic to one's conception of the Other.
