Aronsson, Inga-Lill / Impresiones de un proyecto de reasentamiento.
Impressions of a resettlement project.
The first impressions of an anthropologist who has witnessed the re-settlement process which is taking place in Zimapán (Mexico) are discussed. The author points out that there are very few successful re-settlements - and Zimapán is no exception. Therefore it is legitimate to question the working methods, the epistemological presuppositions, the organization and the training of those who participate in them, before the relocation take place, because towns and people with particular life perceptions are at stake.

Pérez Quijada, Juan / Reacomodos. Treinta años después.
Re-settlements. Thirty years later.
The Miguel Alemán reservoir was built in 1957, destroying the habitat of the mazateca culture, which was separated from its original land, to which little by little those who did not adapt to their new home returned, but are now facing a different sociocultural situation, with new sectors, economic groups and factions, which would enter the political arena in later years. This document follows-up the evolution of the populations of the reservoir (since it was built until the decade of the eighties) from an economic variable which arose from fishing, up to today social and political organization.

Molina Ramos, Eduardo / Faccionalismo y poder en Arroyo Tambor: el impacto de la presa "Miguel de la Madrid Hurtado" sobre un microproceso político.
Factions and Power in Arroyo Tambor: the impact of the “Miguel de la Madrid Hurtado” reservoir, on a political micro-process.
Molina states that the construction of reservoirs responds more to a political decision than to a technical one, which brings together the interests of the nation with a “patriotic” content regarding “well-being” and “national development” with the region’s objectives where they are projected. For his analysis he takes the case of the Arroyo Tambor community and divides its scenario in three dimensions; l) the level of responsible institutions, 2) in the area affected locally and regionally, and 3) an intermediate.

Gallart Nocetti, Ma. Antonieta y Patricia Greaves Laine / Una experiencia de monitoreo del reasentamiento de población por la construcción de los proyectos hidroelétricos Aguamilpa y Zimapán.
A monitoring experience of the population resettlement for the construction of the Aguamilpa and Zimapán hydroelectric projects.
When the World Bank recognized that re-settling populations also created, they defined a new relocation policy according to which the social impact of hydroelectric projects in Aguamilpa and Zimapán (Mexico) would he evaluated. Gallart and Greaves describe this process in detail and underline the difficulties facing this type of work. Lack or hiding of information, lack of decision making power, lack of communication between executor and monitor, coordination before, during and after the physical relocation of the population, etc.
