The communities had their own militias and cavalry for self-defence, and Spanish settlers were forbidden access. The Jesuits allowed for the Indians' religious practices and beliefs in their teaching of Christianity, and the missions gave them protection from the slavery practised outside. It was, however, their very success which led to their downfall, as they came to be regarded as a rival by the cities of Buenos Aires and Asunción. The missions were finally closed in 1767, leaving over 100,000 Indians to their fate. This Jesuit utopia in the jungle was undoubtedly a paternalistic affair, but it has acquired an almost mythical status with the passing years. A recent manifestation of this is the 1986 film “The Mission”.* * *f mission* * ** * *misión n mission -
