Esteban Krotz. Alteridad y pregunta antropológica
Alterity and the anthropological question.The situation of cultural contact is the place of origin of the “anthropological question”. The meeting between paleolithic groups, travel and imperial expansion are three exemplary forms of this situation. The “anthropological question”, whose central category is “alterity”, is a way of studying this type of situation. Thus, anthropology reveals itself as a specific way of conceiving socio-cultural phenomena which is different from other social disciplines.

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.

First of all it analyzes the relationship which refers us to epistemological aspects; and then, the consequences derived from a pluralist vision applied to political projects and its repercussions in the field of ethics or morals. The author also introduces ideas regarding the profound meaning of the notion of pluralism and its relation to the debate on the construction of new projects of social interaction, which recognize, from the beginning, the existence of the conflict.
