ALONSO BOLANOS, Marina; GUTIERREZ SANCHEZ, Javier; LEDESMA DOMINGUEZ, Fermín e TADEO CASTRO, Rosalba. Ethnography of Eating Habits and Power in Indigenous Regions of Chiapas. Estud. cult. maya [online]. 2020, vol.56, pp.261-291. Epub 09-Dez-2020. ISSN 0185-2574. https://doi.org/10.19130/iifl.ecm.2020.56.2.0010.
The objective of this article is to contribute to the ethnographic knowledge of eating habits in Tsotsil, Tseltal, Zoque and Ch’ol regions of Chiapas in the context of cultural diversity and power relationships. It shows that food as a dynamic social fact is a research field in which different scales and levels of social and political power are expressed. Likewise, inequalities between State, market system, national society and Indigenous people are manifested in the eating habits, as well as among particular regional and local contexts. The anthropological category of “control” is proposed in order to explain the relations between social experience of production and consumption of food.
