VAZQUEZ-GARCIA, Verónica. Gender and ejido privatization in San Salvador Atenco, Mexico. Perf. latinoam. [online]. 2020, vol.28, n.55, pp.325-348. Epub 02-Jul-2020. ISSN 0188-7653. https://doi.org/10.18504/pl2855-013-2020.
Thanks to the agrarian reform of 1917, about half of Mexico’s territory is in the hands of peasants. However, most landholders are male and the ejido faces the challenge of privatization. Using documental and ethnographic data, this paper examines the gender dynamics of land privatization in the municipality of San Salvador Atenco, Estado de México. Drawing on the insights of feminist political ecology, it is argued that social practices regarding land privatization reproduced power relations based on gender, class and age.
