TORRES OREGON, Fredyd; HERRERA TAPIA, Francisco; VIZCARRA BORDI, Ivonne y LUTZ BACHERE, Bruno Henri. Etnografía institucional del Proyecto Estratégico de Seguridad Alimentaria (PESA) en una comunidad mazahua. Nueva antropol [online]. 2015, vol.28, n.82, pp.51-81. ISSN 0185-0636.
This study examines how poor farmers in Mexico are institutionally usurped by policies whose purpose is to improve the situation of their food consumption, through programs such as the Strategic Project for Food Security (PESA). The study is based on an ethnographic institutional viewpoint which analyzes the implementation of PESA in a highly marginalized rural Mazahua community in the State of Mexico: San Luis la Manzana, Municipality of Villa Victoria. It was found that these kinds of projects go hand and hand with the creation of bureaucratic structures which legitimize discourse on food security. The results suggest that rural families do not necessarily improve their food security through these programs and that instead practices of clientelism are accentuated through institutional intervention.
