This paper attempts to show how the representation of the 1994 armed uprising in Chiapas by the Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional was molded from that year forward, not by internal dynamics but by a sector of the intellectual left and by the Mexican civil society. That not being the case, sympathetic intellectuals could join the armed group, but were unable to define politics and practice in a manner that adequately captured the sense of the movement. Regardless, the political stance and formation survived in the armed group in Chiapas.

Palabras llave : neozapatism; indigenous; Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional (Chiapas, México); guerrilla.
