PEREZ RUIZ, Ramón. Intercultural processes in an indigenous community in Chiapas from an EMIC view: realities and challenges. Sinéctica [online]. 2016, n.47. ISSN 2007-7033.

The prefix inter culture analyzed for several decades has triggered various debates and academic positions and defined "inclusive" education policies in response to cultural diversity; however, multiculturalism, rather than a conceptual polysemic category is analyzed here as interethnic and social practices between tsotsiles Q'anjob'ales, cohabiting in the same community. The aim of this paper is to analyze the scope, limitations, and conceptual and procedu-ral challenges of multiculturalism and its articulation with social, cultural and educational practices in Nuevo San Juan Chamula, a multicultural community in the southern border of Chiapas, Mexico. It is organized into two themes: the first analyzes the different perspectives of analysis of multiculturalism and, second, identifies and analyzes some social and educational aspects from the concrete practices of indigenous people. This work is based on literature review, ethnographic observation at school, in the family and in the community and in interviews with tsotsiles and Q'anjob'ales community elders.

Palabras llave : Multiculturalism; relational; functional; critical; intercultural education.
