Abstract
ZEPEDA TORRES, Annel and CRUZ MORALES, Juana. Political Praxis and Adaptation Strategies: A View from the Alliance of Rainforest Cocoa Producers. Rev. pueblos front. digit. [online]. 2022, vol.17, e604. Epub Apr 17, 2023. ISSN 1870-4115. https://doi.org/10.22201/cimsur.18704115e.2022.v17.604.
This paper first addresses the concepts of clientelism, paternalism, and simulation theoretically and then observes and analyzes these concepts in the case study of the Alliance of Rainforest Cocoa Producers, a non-profit organization, the members of which are in Maravilla Tenejapa, Chiapas. Based on the specificities of this case study, the paper aims to identify whether clientele, paternalistic, and simulation practices are in fact simple political practices or have become part of adaptation strategies to face a changing public policy.
Keywords : political practices; rural organization; public policies.
