| Sumario: | This article has the purpose of making visible a not much explored is-sue: the right of indigenous peoples in Mexico to maintain and develop their own legal systems according to their own worldview, customs, traditions and cultural identity. Which is protected by the constitutional and conventional rights to autonomy and self determina-tion. I must make a disclaimer that it is not the intention of this article to exhaust the breadth and diversity of this subject with the following reflections, since it would be im-possible to carry out such a task. Therefore, my primary objective will be to open debate and dialogue on a right that, in my opinion, is considered essential for indigenous peoples to be able to maintain their way of life. |
