Summary:

Traces the historical background of Zapatismo, which emerged from the amalgamation of indigenous resistance in Mexico, particularly in Chiapas. This social fabric comprises three main historical-political-cultural forces: indigenous political action rooted in communal identity and organization, pastoral action influenced by Liberation Theology, and the emergence of armed insurgents in resistance. These forces coalesced into a potent historical block with significant social pressure capabilities, culminating in the Zapatista uprising on January 1, 1994. The book critically analyzes the conception and political praxis of Zapatista autonomy as a strategy for territorial defense, examining its various dimensions at local, national, and international levels.
