TORRES-MAZUERA, Gabriela. Flexibility and rigidity of the ejido as a form of land tenure. Relac. Estud. hist. soc. [online]. 2014, vol.35, n.139, pp.257-279. ISSN 2448-7554.

Despite the restrictions imposed by Mexico's Agrarian Law, the ejido form of land tenure has allowed the co-existence of diverse forms of appropriation and land use. However, this flexibility has been marked by an ongoing process of individualized appropriation of ejidal lands. The objective of this study is to contribute to the discussion surrounding the conditions of normative plurality in the context of ejidos. The distance between de jure and defacto rights with respect to the forms of accessing and appropriating ejidal lands is the entry point for a reflection on the conditions that determine the conversion, or resistance, to the individualized appropriation of ejidal lands in southern Yucatán, and the significance of this transformation for the actors involved.

Palavras-chave : ejido; property relations; privatization; normative plurality.
