Resumen
FLETES OCON, Héctor B.. La reinvención de una vocación regional agroexportadora: El corredor costero de Chiapas. LiminaR [online]. 2009, vol.7, n.2, pp.164-183. ISSN 2007-8900.
Based in anthropological perspective, this work analyses production processes, social representations and discourses that in different moments have given to the Chiapas' Corredor Costero, particularly to Soconusco, a quality of export-oriented agriculture. It is argued that besides of material elements, the region is constructed by a set of symbolic representations that assert the regional identity and power. The reinvention of an "export-oriented agriculture"' regional vocation manifests the capacity of social local actors to respond to different problematic situations. But it also expresses the social groups' unequal participation in reproducing those symbols and of the exclusion in agrifood chains.
