 Cacique - Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre
El término cacique, palabra de etimología taína (parcialidad de la etnia arawak) pasó a ser un concepto aplicado por los españoles a ciertas personalidades de las culturas originarias centroamericanas y sudamericanas, con esto se refería a las personas que tenian poder.
Por otra parte la palabra "cacique" y "caciquismo" ha sido usada en la España decimonónica para aludir despectivamente a "caudillos" y líderes de la convulsionada Península Ibérica de esos tiempos.
De un modo similar, en otros países (por ejemplo Argentina) se usa muchas veces figurativa y peyorativamente la palabra "cacique" para aludir a quienes detentan el poder de "redes clientelares" aunque nada tengan que ver con los pueblos originarios de América.
