    Metropolitan management in the Metropolitan Area of the Valley of Mexico: between ... / L.A. SALINAS-ARREORTUA Metropolitan management in the Metropolitan Area of the Valley of Mexico: between legality and political will Luis Alberto Salinas-Arreortua Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Abstract Metropolitan management is one of the great challenges because of the economic, social, and above all political complexity that it represents. In the case of Mexico, it is an issue that attracts attention, however, there is no consensus on the most efficient type of metropolitan government, which, if we bear in mind, is the need for metropolitan management. However, it is important to mention that the formation of an administrative structure that manages a metropolitan area based on political-administrative boundaries and on a certain scale has been a problem for urban and metropolitan management. The objective of this text is to provide elements for the discussion of a metropolitan management for the Metropolitan Zone of the Valley of Mexico, considering mechanisms for the construction of relationships and actors at different scales, under the current legal conditions. Key words: Metropolitan management, metropolitan government, scale policy, legal conditions and political will. Resumen Gestión metropolitana en la Zona Metropolitana del Valle de México: entre la legalidad y la voluntad política La gestión metropolitana constituye uno de los grandes desafíos por la complejidad económica, social, y sobretodo política que representa. Para el caso de México, es un tema que suscita aten- ción, sin embargo, no hay un consenso sobre el tipo de gobierno metropolitano más eficiente, lo que si se tiene presente, es la necesidad de una gestión metropolitana.

  • Mexico's Indigenous and Folk Art Comes to Chapala
    Mexico’s indigenous and folk art comes to Chapala Each year Experience Mex‐ECO Tours promotes a trip which we call the ‘Chapala Artisan Fair’, but this is much more than just a shopping trip; so what’s it really all about? The Feria Maestros del Arte (Masters of Art Fair) is the name given to this annual event in Chapala, and also the name of the non‐profit organization which puts in an incredible amount of work to make it happen. In 2002 an amazing lady called Marianne Carlson came up with the idea of bringing some of the artists and artisans she came across in rural Mexico to Ajijic to sell their high quality traditional work. After a successful first fair, with 13 artists being very well received by the public, Marianne decided to make this an annual event. Providing an outlet for traditional Mexican artists and artisans to sell their work, the Feria Maestros del Arte has provided many families with the opportunity to continue creating Experience Mex‐ECO Tours S.A. de C.V. | www.mex‐ecotours.com | info@mex‐ecotours.com their important cultural representations by allowing them to pursue this as a career, rather than seeking alternative employment. Here is their mission as a non‐profit organization: “To preserve and promote Mexican indigenous and folk art. We help preserve these art forms and the culture that produces them by providing the artists a venue to sell their work to galleries, collectors, museums and corporations. We promote regional and international awareness to the value of these endangered arts.” The efforts made by the Feria committee and its many volunteers mean that the artists and artisans not only have a chance to generate more income in a few days than they may otherwise generate in a year, but also the chance to be recognized by buyers and collectors from around the world.

  • Elizabeth and Harold Hinds
    Elizabeth and Harold Hinds Imholte Hall, University of Minnesota-Morris Imholte Hall, Main Floor Walk-in Display Huichol yarn art. This piece depicts a ceiba tree with a bird. Beside it a man shoots a bow and arrow. Other insect- like forms fly about. These hallucinatory images are traditional for the Huicholes, who used peyote to bring on visions. Originally a traditional art form, yarn paintings became popular as tourist art. This piece was purchased at Tlaquepaque, a town just outside of Guadalajara, in the 1970’s. The story on the back reads: Los Huicholes no conocían el maíz en tiempos antiguos. Una vez un niño se enteró de que había gente allende las montañas “que tienen algo que llaman maíz,” y fue en su busaca. En camino se encontró con un grupo de hombres que le dijeron que (h)iba a comprar maíz y el, confiando, les acompañó. Lo que no sabía es que esa gente eran en realidad hormigas (los insectos en esta ilustración). La Gente Hormiga que ro(b)e todo lo que encuentra. Al llegar la madrugada se despertó. Bajo un gran pino y descubrió que le habían roido (robado) toda la ropa, el cabello e inclusive las cejas, y que solamente le quedaban el arco y las flechas. Oyó que un pájaro se pasaba en un árbol, y le apuntó con una flecha, pues tenía hambre. El pájaro le reveló que era Tatey Kukurú Uimári, Nuestra Madre Paloma Muchacha, la Madre del Maíz. Le dijo que siguiera a su casa, donde le daría maíz. Translation: The Huichol people didn’t know about maize in ancient times.

  • Migración En Tierra Caliente: Una Perspectiva Sobre Tlatlaya
    Migración en tierra caliente: una perspectiva sobre Tlatlaya Adhir Hipólito Álvarez INTRODUCCIÓN EL NIVEL DE IMPORTANCIA QUE SE BRINDA a cada investigación tiene mucho que ver con el objeto de estudio, para este caso se considera que la cul- tura evidencia la identidad individual y colectiva en cualquier grupo social, es decir, que la estructura de una sociedad en particular posee manifestaciones de subjetividad individual y colectiva. Bajo este supuesto teórico, el trabajo presenta los resultados de una investigación etnográfica llevada a cabo en la municipalidad de Tlatlaya, Estado de México, particularmente en la comunidad de Río Topilar. Se parte de un análisis de los cambios asociados a la dimensión cultural de la migración transnacional en su espacio comunitario, es decir, donde acontece la experiencia de los sujetos migrantes. Para ello, aquí asumimos que cada tipo de migración social de forma documentada o indocumentada impone peculiaridades propias a los casos de estudio. Entonces, es pertinente señalar que dada la gran cantidad de población expulsada, el impacto social y el problema huma- no manifestado en los diversos grados de estructuración social y cultural que genera la migración de un país a otro, constituye una justificación de los estudios culturales de la migración. IDENTIDAD Y CULTURA MIGRANTE: MIGRACIÓN EN RÍO TOPILAR LA COMUNIDAD DE ESTUDIO, denominada Río Topilar, perteneciente al mu- nicipio de Tlatlaya, Estado de México cuenta con 125 pobladores según 255 Conapo (2005), y prácticamente la mitad de las personas se encuentran residiendo en Estados Unidos, tanto hombres como mujeres; es decir, un aproximado de 63 personas que en su mayoría oscilan entre 20 y 40 años de edad, tiempo en el que el ser humano suele ser mas productivo para el trabajo, y que, en lo individual y lo colectivo reconstruyen su es- pacio vital y de cotidianidad en términos de su cultura e identidad.
