Description
The land reform in Mexico that followed the Revolution of 1910-17 helped to reconstitute peasant communities in the lowland areas of Oaxaca as a complement to the peasantries that had persisted from early colonial times at the higher altitudes. This book examines the history, production systems, and life styles of these communities, focussing in particular on their structure, ethnic movements, and political participation.
