Ana Paula de Teresa. Procesos de diferenciación socioeconómica en la comunidad agraria
Processes of socio-economic differentiation in the agrarian community.Regardless of the profound deterioration the Mexican agricultural land has been suffering over the past 25 years, the agricultural workers’ sector still holds an important place in the productive, social and political fields. This essay presents some hypothesis on the conditions that have made the reproduction of the agricultural worker’s sector possible throughout time. After studying four communities in the Central Valleys of Oaxaca it shows that, as agropecuarian activity stops being the economic basis of land workers’ subsistence, mechanisms are developed which lead to the retention and/or selective expulsion of the rural population. This phenomena, apart from decreasing the pressure on the resources, generates a socio-economic differentiation process which is expressed both at a demographic level as well as productive and occupational ones.

Sergio Pérez Cortés. Violencia y gobierno de sí mismo
Violence and government of itself.As violence has become a problem and for many it is a synonym of “lack of morals”, the author wonders if it is not necessary to distinguish between the different types of violence, its causes, authors, and, even if the systematic condemnation of the transgressors is too easy an answer. It offers his ideas on the existing link between violence and its government, considering that violence is a complex phenomena and that this is only a partial explanation. It does not intend to present a phenomenology of violence; it leaves pure and simple criminality apart, and centers both on the link between violent action and conduct norms which are impressed on and demanded from the citizen, as well as in the understanding and surveillance this citizen exerts on himself to contain the violence.

José González and Regina Leal. Demanda comercial y manejo de recursos en una comunidad indígena campesina
Commercial demand and handling of resources in an indigenous agricultural community.Market relations established with the socio-economic environment where they are immersed, are a very important element in the dynamics of indigenous agricultural communities. In the case of the community of Santa Catarina del Monte, the commercial insertion takes place with the markets of the cities of Texcoco and Mexico. This insertion, seen from a temporary perspective, causes a series of adjustments in the handling of natural resources. These can be observed in the change of strategies so as to be able to adapt to the demand of products in the market. This essay presents a diachronic revision of the different forms and changes in the handling of natural resources as a response to the commercial demand in the markets of Sonora, La Merced, Jamaica and the Central de Abastos, for these are the main commercial centers of the region.
