- Patricia Safa. Vida urbana, heterogeneidad cultural y desigualdades sociales: el estudio en México de sectores populares urbanos. Safa. Patricia. Urban life. cultural heterogeneity and social Inequalities: the study of the popular urban sectors In Mexico. Facing the influence of the explanations about the popular culture (that is to say. the practices and beliefes that belong to the people) and of the theoretical incapability to understand the change processes which characterize our society as wel las its complexity. Safa proposes in this article to formulate new questions and points of view that can explain the cultural phenomena in big cities. analysing the processes which lead the peopleto solve their needs. according with certain objective conditions that the city offers. In this way. she points his atention in two fundamental aspects: the fissures of the paradigmes and the search of new roads from the homogeneous to the diversity of the practices; and the analysis of urban life for the study of cities of multiple history, acceses and uses. For the author. these subjects are the main challenges that the antropological research faces in big cities like Mexico City.

Las ladrilleras de Cholula: características demográficas y organización socioeconómicahot!
- Roberto D. Shadow/María J. RodrÍguez-Shadow. Las ladrilleras de Cholula: características demográficas y organización socioeconómica. Shadow. Robert D. y Rodriguez-Shadow. Maria J.. The Cholula brickworks: demographic characteristics and socio·economic organization. Starting from the regard of the doubtless changes that can be observed in the rural life. and having in account that the handcraft production has always been a distintive feature of the peasant duties (until now contemplated as a complementary activity to the farm tasks). the authors observe a phenomenon where the traditional relations of induction and incorporation of the rural sector with the city are being expanded and redefined: we now deal with nexus. merchandise flow and value transferences that take forms that go further than the food supply and limited amounts of handcraft (the study case is the one of production of raw material for the construction industry in Cholula. Puebla). Everything that implies changes in the use of the local resources, the demographic profile, the working force exploitation, the social organization and the class structure in the productive communities.

- Mariángela Rodríguez Nicholls. Los rituales políticos son mucho más que puro principio del placer: 5 de mayo en el Peñón de los Baños. Rodriguez Nicholls. Mariangela. The political rituals are much more than just a pure pleasure principle: May 5th at Peñon de los Baños. Assuming that the question of the civic and political rituals are used to remember outstanding facts and to create a major historical conscience. the author describes the way that at EI Peñon de los Baños is developed the festivity of the "Batalla de Puebla" (The Battle of Puebla). when the mexicans were defeated by the French invaders on the 5th of May of 1862. The performance of the Battle of Puebla permits to set the model of how the civic-popular parties gather the most decisive facts and founders of the history of a determined place and how. eventhough they pretend to exert a pedagogic action. the different participant sectors and spectators have different perceptions. far from the historic "true". However. the civic-political rituals serve as an introductory instrument to the knowledge of a society and its different chapters that must be remembered and. even more. elaborated by those who consume them.
