TORRES ALVAREZ, Martha Marisol; TRENCH, Tim; MARQUEZ ROSANO, Conrado  e  BELLO BALTAZAR, Eduardo. Environmental Governance, from Where? The Overlapping of Public Action with Local Cultural Frameworks. Región y sociedad [online]. 2021, vol.33, e1429.  Epub 20-Set-2021. ISSN 2448-4849.  https://doi.org/10.22198/rys2021/33/1429.

Objective: to contrast the “universal” discourse of the principles of “good environmental governance” with local perceptions of these principles in order to discuss their efficacy in relation to cultural frameworks. Methodology: using the grounded theory through mixed methods, in a placed called La Suiza de Chiapas in Montecristo de Guerrero municipality, the local meanings of governance principles were recovered and were measured in the Grupo Intercomunitario de Acción Territorial (Territorial Action Intra-community Group) (case study). Limitations: the case study’s particularities. Results: at least two of the problems that environmental governance claims to solve: the lack of horizontality in public action and the weaknesses in directive ability are explained and analyzed. Value: the study promotes a better discussion of environmental governance as a model of intervention. Conclusions: the universal principles of this governance do not always coincide with local perceptions and the actor’s responses reflect their cultural particularities and historical experiences.
