要約:Femenine indigenous migration towards cities located in Northern Mexico, without disregarding the conflicts entailed by the process, is generally conceived as an active subject in the social–cultural construction at the places of destination, where the power relations and the resignification of culture in the new context play a key role. The aim is to analyze the power relations of the Mixtecan Street vendors, specifically and concretely in the public space, for which reason the case of the interface between Women and the State is analyzed herein. The basis for our study resides in the fluid, multidimensional, relational conception of power, where there are no a priori “powerful” figures, nor figures deemed external to social networks; there are also no relationships based on submission. Rather, we see that the exercise of power entails exercising it and relinquishing it at once (Villarreal, 1994, 2000). It is also based on a conception where social capital may be generated in social networks, and is negotiated.
