Abstract

NUCAMENDI MENDEZ, Andry Yanarel; BRINGAS-RABAGO, Nora L.  and  VERDUZCO CHAVEZ, Basilio. Socioterritorial Conflicts in Valle de Guadalupe, Baja California, Mexico: An Approach from Trust Networks. Frontera norte [online]. 2023, vol.35, e2347.  Epub Apr 15, 2024. ISSN 2594-0260.  https://doi.org/10.33679/rfn.v1i1.2347.

This article analyzes, from a relational perspective, interactions between participants of various trust networks and explains their role in preserving the agricultural and rural profile of Valle de Guadalupe, Baja California and its consolidation as the most important wine region in Mexico. Semi-structured interviews and newspaper content analysis were used to study various land use conflicts recorded between 2000 and 2020. Contention scenarios, action repertoires, and outcomes of previous experiences were identified. The results show a diversity of trust networks using a diverse set of mechanisms ranging from participatory innovation to patronage and discretionary appropriation. As the valley has become the country's leading wine tourism destination, these networks have made progress in conflict resolution and land protection, but still face emerging tensions due to tourism and real estate development.

Keywords : socioterritorial conflicts; trust networks; wine region; Valle de Guadalupe; Mexico.
