Abstract

ALVAREZ RODRIGUEZ, Irene María. Heritage, Money and Knowledge among a Group of Miners in Sierra de Catorce, San Luis Potosí. Desacatos [online]. 2019, n.59, pp.114-129. ISSN 2448-5144.

The objective of this text is to analyze how a group of artisan miners ensure their social identity survival. I appeal to the concept of heritage, which I understand as a kind of social relation that connects the continuity of a collectivity with the reproduction of knowledge and money.

Keywords : heritage; mining; knowledge; techniques; money.
