Zuni Pueblo is an Indigenous self-governing community in present-day New Mexico that has maintained communal governance, land stewardship, and consensus-based decision-making for centuries. Social and political life is organized through councils, religious societies, and collective rituals that regulate land use, conflict resolution, and community responsibilities. Zuni governance represents a living system of cultural sovereignty and non-state democracy rooted in ancestral law and territorial continuity.
