Description - Indigenous Autonomy in Mexico by Cal Y. Mayor

Indigenous Autonomy in Mexico is an important collection of essays and will be compulsory reading for those who wish to have a better understanding of the dynamic processes of change in Mexico and its indigenous peoples at the end of the millennium. With an introduction by Rodolfo Stavenhagen the book relates different experiences and proposals relative to the issue of indigenous autonomy. International and constitutional aspects of autonomy are analyzed. A feminine view is provided. Significant cases of local autonomy and the struggle of indigenous peoples for their resources and environment in the face of a mistaken, badly planned government policy for infra-structural development are presented. With analysis, cases and proposals, Indigenous Autonomy makes a worthy contribution to anyone interested in the Mexican debate on indigenous autonomy.
