PEREZ-VARGAS, Noel  y  MENDEZ ESPINOZA, José Arturo. Rural and indigenous youth practices of symbolic production. The case of Santa María Atexcac, Huejotzingo, Puebla. LiminaR [online]. 2020, vol.18, n.2, pp.173-185.  Epub 10-Dic-2020. ISSN 2007-8900.  https://doi.org/10.29043/liminar.v18i2.765.

The main objective of this ethnographic research is to understand the meaning behind young people’s participation in the bands and dances of Santa María Atexcac, Puebla, and appreciate the factors that influenced their emergence and what interests are pursued therein. We found that the meaning of the bands and dances has to do with territorial tensions that exist between young people and adults. In addition, one main interest of young people that generates tension involves their search for a place within the social space of Atexcac.

Palabras llave : indigenous youth; symbolic practices; social space; territorial transformations.
