The Reorganization of the Huichol Ceremonial Precinct (Tukipa) of Guadalupe Ocotán, Nayarit, México Translation of the Spanish by Eduardo Williams
FAMSI © 2007: Víctor Manuel Téllez Lozano The Reorganization of the Huichol Ceremonial Precinct (Tukipa) of Guadalupe Ocotán, Nayarit, México Translation of the Spanish by Eduardo Williams Research Year : 2005 Culture : Huichol Chronology : Modern Location : Nayarit, México Site : Guadalupe Ocotán Table of Contents Abstract Resumen Linguistic Note Introduction Architectural Influences The Tukipa District of Xatsitsarie The Revolutionary Period and the Reorganization of the Community The Fragmentation of the Community The Tukipa Precinct of Xatsitsarie Conclusions Acknowledgements Appendix: Ceremonial precincts derived from Xatsitsarie’s Tuki List of Figures Sources Cited Abstract This report summarizes the results of research undertaken in Guadalupe Ocotán, a dependency and agrarian community located in the municipality of La Yesca, Nayarit. This study explores in greater depth the political and ceremonial relations that existed between the ceremonial district of Xatsitsarie and San Andrés Cohamiata , one of three Wixaritari (Huichol) communities in the area of the Chapalagana River, in the northern area of the state of Jalisco ( Figure 1 , shown below). Moreover, it analyzes how the destruction of the Temple ( Tuki ) of Guadalupe Ocotán, together with the modification of the community's territory, determined the collapse of these ceremonial links in the second half of the 20th century. The ceremonial reorganization of this district is analyzed using a diachronic perspective, in which the ethnographic record, which begins with Lumholtz' work in the late 19th century, is contrasted with reports by missionaries and oral history. Similarly, on the basis of ethnographic data and information provided by archaeological studies, this study offers a reinterpretation of certain ethnohistorical sources related to the antecedents of these ceremonial centers. -
Organized Crime and Terrorist Activity in Mexico, 1999-2002
ORGANIZED CRIME AND TERRORIST ACTIVITY IN MEXICO, 1999-2002 A Report Prepared by the Federal Research Division, Library of Congress under an Interagency Agreement with the United States Government February 2003 Researcher: Ramón J. Miró Project Manager: Glenn E. Curtis Federal Research Division Library of Congress Washington, D.C. 20540−4840 Tel: 202−707−3900 Fax: 202−707−3920 E-Mail: [email protected] Homepage: http://loc.gov/rr/frd/ Library of Congress – Federal Research Division Criminal and Terrorist Activity in Mexico PREFACE This study is based on open source research into the scope of organized crime and terrorist activity in the Republic of Mexico during the period 1999 to 2002, and the extent of cooperation and possible overlap between criminal and terrorist activity in that country. The analyst examined those organized crime syndicates that direct their criminal activities at the United States, namely Mexican narcotics trafficking and human smuggling networks, as well as a range of smaller organizations that specialize in trans-border crime. The presence in Mexico of transnational criminal organizations, such as Russian and Asian organized crime, was also examined. In order to assess the extent of terrorist activity in Mexico, several of the country’s domestic guerrilla groups, as well as foreign terrorist organizations believed to have a presence in Mexico, are described. The report extensively cites from Spanish-language print media sources that contain coverage of criminal and terrorist organizations and their activities in Mexico. -
Metropolitan Management in the Metropolitan Area of the Valley of Mexico: Between
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. -
Climate Action Plan for the City of La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico: a Tool for Sustainability
The Sustainable City X 439 Climate action plan for the city of La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico: a tool for sustainability A. Ivanova, A. Bermudez & A. Martinez Universidad Autonoma de Baja California Sur, Mexico Abstract As a result of its coastal location and severe water scarcity condition, the city of La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico, is extremely vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. The purpose of this paper is to present the main findings of the Climate Change Action Plan for the City of La Paz and Neighbouring Areas (PACCLAP): first, the vulnerability to climate change and the adaptation measures suggested; and second, the local greenhouse gas emissions inventory and the recommended mitigation measures. In this study the methodology specified in UNEP (2008) was applied, Methodology for Assessment: GEO Cities. Manual for Application, Version 3; UNEP (2009), Training Manual on Vulnerability and Adaptation to Climate Change for Geo Cities, UN-Habitat (2010), Planning for Climate Change: A Resource Guide for Urban Planners and UNEP (2011) IEA Training Manual, Climate Change Vulnerability and Impact Assessment in Cities. The greenhouse gas emissions inventory (LGHGEI) was carried out following the revised 1996 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s guidelines for greenhouse gas inventories (IPCC, 1997a; IPCC, 1997b; IPCC, 1997c). The main results show that the water scarcity is the principal vulnerability for the city, followed by the sea level rise; and that the transport sector must be the priority in the mitigation strategy. The proposed climate actions (e.g. catch of surface water in dams, reduce leakage losses in the water system; efficient fuel use; and, emissions mitigation trough grid connected systems) are directly related to the Municipality Development Plan, thus making the PACCLAP a valuable instrument to support current and future decision makers in the formulation of public policies to foster the sustainability and improve the wellbeing of the local society. -

Range Expansion of the Whitenose Shark, Nasolamia Velox, and Migratory Movements to the Oceanic Revillagigedo Archipelago

This study provides evidence of the occurrence of this species at the Revillagigedo Archipelago (18899′186′′N 112808′44′′W), Mexico, using acoustic telemetry and videos taken from 2014 to 2016. We report here movements from a coastal location (National Park Cabo Pulmo) to a group of oceanic islands (Revillagigedo Archipelago) by one single individual, supporting the idea of the potential connectivity of sharks between the Gulf of California and the Revillagigedo Archipelago. This report extends the known distribution of N. velox to 400 km off the mainland coast of the Americas, thereby increasing the knowledge of the distribution of a species commonly reported in fishery landings of the Eastern Pacific. -
