GOMEZ, Mariana. Procesos organizativos y participación política de mujeres indígenas en México: voces de activistas y abordajes en la bibliografía. Mora (B. Aires) [online]. 2014, vol.20, n.2, pp.00-00. ISSN 1853-001X.

Since the nineties an increasing Indigenous Women Movement, compound of heterogeneous organizational processes and modalities of political participation, of different scale and range, is expanding in different regions and states of México. Between September and November of 2012 I travelled to México to see up close these processes and to make a research of the more important bibliography about the topic: those that focus on the emergence of autonomous organizational processes and the other one that concentrate in the inclusion of indigenous women in the formal party politics and in the "gobiernos de usos y costumbres" in the communities. In both cases the women must avoid many obstacles and gender prejudices to maintain in their conquer places and in the spaces build. Even so the indigenous women transformed in social and political actors: they changed their subject positions and their started processes of construction and politization of new gender, class and ethnic identities, and in the present they are creating their own polity of reprentation. This article makes a summary of the Indigenous Women Movement in Mexico, considered the role played by the women in the Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional (EZLN) as a central precedent.
