III. Rural Workers and Indigenous People
Hector Diaz-Polanco. La Rebelion Zapatista y la Autonomia. Mexico: Siglo-Veintiuno Editores, 1997. Hector Diaz-Polanco, a researcher at the Centro de Investigaciones y Estudios Superiores en Antropologia Social (CIESAS) in Mexico City and an advisor to the Zapatista Army of National Liberation (EZLN), has been one of the foremost interpreters of autonomy movements in Latin America and one of the strongest advocates of regional, territorial and political autonomy for the Indian peoples of Mexico. A Dominican by birth, Diaz-Polanco spent time in Nicaragua as an advisor to the regional indigenous movements there.
In this book Diaz-Polanco argues that the EZLN-led Chiapas rebellion of 1994 put the issue of autonomy at the top of the political agenda in Mexico. As Diaz-Polanco sees it, one of the greatest contributions of the EZLN was to link the Chiapas Indians' demand for autonomy with the national struggles for democracy and social justice, and to link the guerrillas and the Indian movement to the broader struggles of Mexican civil society.
This comprehensive book discusses the history of the indigenous peoples' autonomy struggles in Mexico since the conquest, the contemporary social and economic situation of the Indians of Mexico, and the political struggle between the Indians and the Mexican state. Diaz-Polanco examines the autonomy agreements between Greenland and Denmark and between Nicaragua and its costal regions as models for future autonomy agreements in Latin America and other parts of the world.

    Elections in Mexico: Indigenous Suffrage Under Protest
    By Araceli Burguete, from Abya Yala News, Vol. 8, no. 3
    Fall 1994
    Abya Yala News, Araceli Burguete is a Chiapas native as well as Technical and Research Coordinator for the Independent Indian Peoples Front. The Mexican Constitution was modified in 1992 to include certain new Indigenous rights. Unfortunately, this reform has never been implemented, and Indigenous forms of social organization and democratic representation still lack legal recognition. Despite many efforts to pass legislation guaranteeing Indian representation in congress over the past three years, none have been adopted because Indigenous organizations still lack allies to support these proposals. Thus, Mexico's Indigenous peoples have access to the nation's congress only through participation in the political parties. At the same time, there is ample consensus among the nation's Indigenous organizations that the political parties are not adequate mechanisms for bringing Indigenous representatives to congress. This conclusion has been reinforced by the marginal placement of Indigenous demands in the political parties' agendas, in addition to the absence of Indigenous representation in their leadership structures. Faced with this situation, Indigenous people have become increasingly doubtful about working through the political parties. Consequently, the traditional parties have gradually lost political control within the country's Indigenous regions.

    The first humans in the Americas were descendants of northeast Asian nomads who migrated across the Bering Strait perhaps as early as 30,000 B.C. Archaeological evidence testifies to the presence of early hunters and gatherers in Mexico around 10,000 to 8000 B.C. During the next few thousand years, humans domesticated indigenous plants, such as corn, squash, and beans. With a constant food supply assured, people became permanent settlers. Villages appeared as the number of people and food supplies increased. By 1500 B.C., the early inhabitants were producing handmade clay figurines and sophisticated clayware. Throughout its long history of human habitation, the Valley of Mexico drew people from Mesoamerica who were attracted by its abundant sources of water, easy communication, and plentiful game and vegetation. The valley was a corridor through which many migrating groups passed and sometimes settled. During the pre-Columbian era, the valley was in constant turmoil except during times of central authority and political hegemony.
    The last nomadic arrivals in the valley were the Mexica, more commonly known as the

    NATIONAL PROFILE OF THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLES OF MEXICO INTRODUCTION
    General Overview of the Indigenous Populations of Mexico
    1. The discovery of the Americas in the sixteenth century revealed to the European invaders two great civilizations: the Inca in the Southern Hemisphere, and the Mesoamerican in the Northern Hemisphere. The latter was characterized, until colonization began, by all the elements commonly associated with "advanced civilizations." These included a great concentration of sedentary populations; sophisticated political organization of hierarchical states; intensive agriculture; monumental constructions including temples, and civil structures; a great tradition of sculpture and pictorial art; hieroglyphic writing; the use of sophisticated calendars, and; mathematical computation. It also included a variety of social classes, centralized religious systems with priestly castes. 2. To the north of this Mesoamerican civilization, was the zone of hunters and gatherers, known as arid-America. In this zone, with desert ecology, its inhabitants successfully adapted to the limited resource base and harsh environment through a primarily nomadic economy, with a low demographic density and limited sedentarized settlements. In contrast to the Mesoamerican civilizations, they had a relatively simple social and political structure; a low level of technological development and simple knowledge of architecture as well as relatively unsophisticated artistic, religious and intellectual expressions.

    Cheap labour
    Labour is a lot cheaper in Mexico than in the Unites States, so it is cheap and convenient for American companies to have their products made in Mexico. Not surprisingly, a lot of the factories that made these products were built near the US/Mexican border. These factories are known as "maquila" or "maquiladora". SWEATSHOP: (n) a place where people work very hard for very low pay. Since the North American Free Trade Agreement was signed in 1994, the number of maquila has grown very fast and they are spreading to other parts of the country. Some maquila have only a few workers, others have more than a thousand. Some maquila are registered, but many more are "underground". THE NORTH AMERICAN FREE TRADE AGREEMENT (NAFTA) is an agreement between the United States, Canada and Mexico to ensure unrestricted trade and investment between thses countries.

    Who We Are... The Center for World Indigenous Studies (CWIS) is an independent, non-profit [U.S. 501(c)(3)] research and education organization dedicated to wider understanding and appreciation of the ideas and knowledge of indigenous peoples and the social, economic and political realities of indigenous nations. The Center fosters better understanding between peoples through the publication and distribution of literature written and voiced by leading contributors from Fourth World Nations. An important goal of CWIS is to establish cooperation between nations and to democratize international relations between nations and between nations and states Dr. Rudolph C. Ryser, Ph.D. (a member of the Cowlitz Tribe ) and Chief George Manuel (1929-1989) of the Shuswap Nation founded CWIS as an independent organization in the Spring of 1984 in response to calls by the Conference of Tribal Governments in the United States and the World Council of Indigenous Peoples for a documents center. Concerned with the advancement of ideas for solving social, economic and political problems in the Fourth World, the Center for World Indigenous Studies links voluntary contributors world-wide and conducts original research, education, conflict resolution symposia and conferences benefiting constructive relations between nations, and nations and states.

    The Zapatista Movement
    With a primary goal of localized indigenous autonomy, the EZLN (Zapatista National Liberation Army) took over five cities in the southern Mexican state of Chiapas on January 1, 1994. The start of the uprising coincided with, and was in retaliation to, the signing of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). Over the ensuing ten days, the army ransacked government buildings and burned files, mostly concerned with land ownership, but killed no one. In retaliation, the Mexican army attempted to end the uprising with aerial bombings of villages and mass murder of prisoners, leaving over 150 indigenous people dead, many of whom were women and children.
    The situation of Mexico's indigenous peoples had been worsening since the country's debt crisis in 1982, with the state of Chiapas having the worst levels of disease, poverty, infant mortality, and life expectancy of any state in the country. The reform of Article 27 of the Constitution, by ex-President Salinas, loomed to worsen the situation further still. Article 27 protected community-owned land from privatization. This Amendment opened the rich land of Chiapas to US agribusiness and large area landowners who had increased their strong-arm tactics. The signing of NAFTA loomed to worsen the plight of the indigenous people even further. All of this meant one thing: Indigenous people would be forced off their land.

Among the better-known examples of the latter are the colorful cotton textiles produced in the Guatemalan highlands, marketed both locally and in industrialized countries. Also in Guatemala, seasonal labor on the growing number of coffee plantations along the Pacific coast became increasingly important throughout the first half of the 20th cent. Beginning in the 1930s and 40s, improved communications throughout the Maya region opened many new and often local economic opportunities for wage employment and commercial activity.

    Integrated Systems Division
    Falls Church, Virginia Abstract 1. Introduction In his famous dissenting opinion in Olmstead v. U.S., 277 U.S. 438 (1928) , Justice Louis Brandeis called the right to be let alone "the most comprehensive of rights and the right most cherished by civilized men." Justice Brandeis's ruling could just as easily apply to the right of indigenous peoples to be let alone from intrusive central government "development" and surveillance programs. The increasing use of satellites to survey lands and oceans for natural resources comes at the expense of many indigenous peoples to freely conduct various activities on their ancestral lands. Many indigenous tribes maintain a certain kinship with the territory upon which they live. This kinship runs deep and in some cases has an important religious significance for the people concerned. 2. Geographic Information Systems (GISs) and Indigenous Lands Indian leaders contend that those who operate GISs must be sensitive to the traditions surrounding their lands. Many Indian tribes feel that certain data must remain private and not be released to the general public. Data security and privacy controls therefore become problematic. Tribal officials such as the Colville Confederacy leadership feel that certain data cannot be treated as regular data. Information on hunting and gathering areas has a spiritual significance for the Indians that is perhaps unappreciated by statisticians in cold, gray and distant computer rooms (Marchand and Winchell, 1994, 51).

    Indigenous Peoples on the Border
    Indigenous peoples who have been on the North American continent much longer than Mexico, the United States of America and Canada are adversely affected by these countries’ international boundaries.
    The Jay Treaty and the Treaty of Ghent protect the right of tribes whose lands are bisected by U.S.-Canadian border to cross between the two countries. The same protection was not explicitly guaranteed to tribes divided by the U.S.-Mexican border. The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo separated the Kumeyaay Indians of California from the Kumiai of Baja California. The Gadsden Purchase separated Tohono O'odham and other tribes in Arizona from their relatives in Sonora, Mexico.
    For many years, indigenous peoples crossed easily between Mexico and the United States, because they were known to border agents and secured inexpensive border crossing cards. Growing restrictions on immigration to the United States over the last decades have made it more difficult for tribes to maintain cross-border ties. Immigration and customs agents often question the border crossings of tribal members, who may lack the documents and finances necessary for passports and visas. The Texas Band of Kickapoo Act of 1983 was passed to allow the Kickapoo to cross freely between Texas and Mexico, where they reside. In recent years, the Tohono O’odham, the Cocopah, and the Yaqui people and the Kumeyaay in California have lobbied to secure their rights to travel across their ancestral lands.
