En particular, interesa saber cómo se estructuró el proceso de toma de decisiones dentro de este grupo, tomando un caso de estudio, el de Tepalcatepec, durante la primera fase de su movilización. Con base en un marco teórico sistémico y a través de una metodología cualitativa, se reconstruye la cadena de decisiones organizativa desde dos puntos de vista: 1) la formación de una línea de mando funcionalmente diferenciada; 2) la emergencia de procesos de toma de decisiones en un contexto de tensión y conflicto.]]></p></abstract>

More specifically, we are interested in studying how the decision-making process was structured within these groups. We use as a case study the town of Tepalcatepec during the initial stage of mobilization. Based on a systemic theoretical framework and using a qualitative methodology, we reconstruct the organizational decision-chain from two viewpoints: 1) the formation of a line of command functionally differentiated; 2) the emergence of decision-making processes in a context of tension and conflict.]]></p></abstract>
