Resumo:This article focuses on an historical analysis of the Yucatan Peninsula and how it was constructed as a region from the beginning of the Spanish conquest, building upon the region’s distinctive characteristics such as the physical setting and the constant presence of a large Mayan population. I will examine, from a selection of texts, the conditions that gave rise to the inception of three socio-economic models that drove the development of capitalism and explain the region’s modernity from the 1970s onward. These models are: “seignorial”; that which remained linked to the agricultural businesses of the nineteenth century; and that which corresponds to present-day capitalistic practices.
