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 contain the rebellion, but not to defuse it. Zapatista and government relations are currently in stalemate
