  • The Impact of Second Republic Labor Reforms in Spain

    Open AccessGeorge A CollierCHAPTERHistory and Power in the Study of…2018

    What is the relationship between legislation and legal change? And how does one best come to understand the experience oflegal change for those whose lives legislation affects? When we examine such issues concerning how legal institutions and processes reach into, shape, and are shaped by daily affairs in the lives of communities and individuals, we must consider questions of power, of meaning, and above all of their historical interplay.

  • Familia y tierra en varias comunidades mayas

    Open AccessGeorge A CollierARTICLEEstudios de Cultura Maya2012

    Este ensayo, al estudiar la organización de la familia y su relación con los patrones hereditarios en varias comunidades mayas, acepta el ciclo doméstico como paradigma fundamental, pero su enfoque es más bien el de aclarar el carácter de dependencia, obediencia y respeto recíprocos de autoridad y control, y de trazar su expresión en las formas ciclo doméstico y de la tenencia de tierra, herencia y residencia

  • To See with Two Eyes

    George A Collier, George CollierARTICLEHispanic American Historical Review2005

    Most observers equate Mexico’s indigenous autonomy movement with the Zapatista rebellion of 1994 and the Zapatistas’ efforts to redefine indigenous relationships to the Mexican state. Mattiace’s welcome study underscores the origins, development, and diversity of Mexico’s indigenous autonomy initiatives, including those outside the Zapatista movement.Mattiace understands indigenous autonomy mobilization as a cultural politics enacted by people wh…

  • The Zapatista rebellion in the context of globalization

    George A Collier, Jane F CollierARTICLEThe Journal of Peasant Studies2005Citada por: 9Referencias: 5

    This article examines how globalization both stimulated and restrained the Zapatista rebellion. Globalization and structural adjustment led Mexico to cut back social programmes while beefing up military response to social protest. But as the Zapatistas rose in rebellion, neoliberal planners had already shifted tactics to shore up the weakened state through formal 'democracy' and 'human rights'. Such resort to the 'rule of law' has helped Mexico c…

  • Zapatismo Resurgent Land And Autonomy In Chiapas

    George A CollierARTICLENACLA Report on the Americas2000

    The repeal of land reform legislation in 1992 robbed many peasants not just of the possibility of gaining a piece of land, but, quite simply, of hope. For the Zapatistas, this was the straw that broke the camel’s back, leading them to launch their January 1, 1994 uprising

  • Socio-Economic Change and Emotional Illness among the Highland Maya of Chiapas Mexico

    Open AccessGeorge A Collier, Pablo J Farias Campero et al.ARTICLEEthos2000Citada por: 7Referencias: 4

    This paper analyses the relation of processes of socio- economic differentiation and change to the well-being and health of families within highland Maya communities and to the lived experience of emotional suffering, as defined by local categories of mental illness. We specifically analyze how highland Maya Indians of central Chiapas, Mexico, experience the contradictions of a rapidly changing economy, social relations, politics, and culture in …

  • Differentiation, Radicalization, and the Emergence of the Zapatista Rebellion in Chiapas

    Open AccessGeorge A CollierARTICLEPoLAR Political and Legal…1998Citada por: 1Referencias: 12

    Over three decades, southeastern Mexico has experienced social and economic changes that restructured agriculture, exacerbated class divisions, and increasingly politicized ethnic relations in a region with a large indigenous population. The Zapatista rebellion of 1994 both reflected these processes and sharpened the economic, social, and political divisions growing out of them. It also refocused opposition to the political structures through whi…

  • Reconfiguring Ethnicity, Identity and Citizenship in the Wake of the Zapatista Rebellion

    Open AccessLynn Stephen, George A CollierARTICLEJournal of Latin American…1997

    Four years after the Zapatista uprising, this group of articles examines the gains and losses which have emerged out of that political opening. Focused on three arenas: 1) the indigenous autonomy movement in Chiapas, Oaxaca and nationally, 2) movements for indigenous women's rights and 3) retrenchment, factional divisions and infighting in communities, these articles underscore how the larger political and economic context both helped and hindere…

  • Reaction and Retrenchment in the Highlands of Chiapas in the Wake of the Zapatista Rebellion

    Open AccessGeorge A CollierARTICLEJournal of Latin American…1997

    The Zapatista movement initially coalesced pan‐indigenous identities in broad alliances that raised hope for progressive political and social change in Chiapas. Yet broad alliances have also exposed the movement's grass roots to new and sometimes unwelcome inroads of power. As illustrated in this case study of current events in Zinacantan. in Chiapas's central highlands, these inroads have sometimes seemed to sharpen local‐level conflict and dise…

    El presente trabajo se ocupa de la rebelión zapatista surgida en la selva lacandona de Chiapas y zonas colindantes, región que se distingue de los Altos de Chiapas por su colonización reciente, su débil control por parte del PRI, su elevado índice de afiliación a organizaciones y a políticas opositoras al PRI y su protestantismo. Las causas del alzamiento provienen de los trastornos ocasionados al sector agrícola, los que son consecuencia del "bo…

  • The long haul in Mexican trucking

    Open AccessRobert R Alvarez, Robert Alvarez et al.ARTICLEAmerican Ethnologist1994Citada por: 25Referencias: 18

    Northern Mexican truckers use personal networks, patronage, and trust to organize their long-haul produce trade, in contrast to more corporative styles and organization of highland Maya truckers in Mexico's south, who also ship to and from Mexico's central produce markets. Yet both groups of entrepreneurs traverse their respective borderlands into alien markets (across the U.S.-Mexico border into Los Angeles, or into Mexican national markets form…

    Se trata de la política de indígenas Tzotziles y Tzeltales de Chiapas dentro del marco del estado. Alternaciones en la política indigenista y agraria del estado Mexicano influyen al caracter fragmentario y faccional de la vida política de pueblos indígenas, deprimiendo conciencia de clase y subrayando un clientelismo y un caciquismo bastante restringidos en su poder
