How Did The Arbenz Land Reform Impact Indigenous Communities? In this informative video, we discuss the Arbenz land reform in Guatemala and its impact on indigenous communities. This reform, implemented through Decree Nine Hundred in 1952, aimed to transform Guatemala's economy by redistributing unused land from large estates to local peasants, including indigenous groups. For centuries, these communities faced challenges in accessing land due to historical injustices stemming from the Spanish conquest.

By 1954, approximately one hundred thousand families benefited from this reform, significantly increasing land ownership among indigenous populations. This shift not only boosted agricultural production but also contributed positively to the national economy. However, the reform faced considerable opposition from large landowners and foreign interests, leading to a political coup that reversed many of the gains made.
