| Sumario: | Faced with the serious economic, social and political problems faced by Mexico, this country saw the Zapatista National Liberation Army (EZLN appear in the 1990s). The rebels defended, above all, the indigenous causes, claimed the end of the political hegemony of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) and fought against neoliberalism. At the same time, moving away from the Mexican institutional political scene, EZLN assisted several indigenous communities in the Region of Selva Lacandona, Chiapas, to organize themselves so that they could self-govern themselves, regardless of the state. In this sense, the present work intends to analyze the experience of zapatista indigenous self-government, through the autonomous municipalities, Aguascalientes and Caracoles located in the Region of Selva Lacandona, in Chiapas. |
