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.

It is also based on a conception where social capital may be generated in social networks, and is negotiated. La migración indígena femenina hacia ciudades del norte de México, sin perder de vista los conflictos presentes del proceso, generalmente es concebida como un sujeto activo en los lugares de destino, donde las relaciones de poder y la resignificación de la cultura en el nuevo contexto desempeñan un papel fundamental. El propósito es analizar las relaciones de poder de las vendedoras ambulantes mixtecas concretamente en el espacio público; para lo anterior, se analiza el caso de interfaz: las mujeres y el Estado. Nos basamos en una concepción de poder fluida, multidireccional y relacional, donde no hay figuras “poderosas” a priori ni externas a las relaciones sociales, y donde el ejercicio del poder implique ejercerlo y cederlo a la vez (Villarreal, 1994, 2000); Así como en una concepción donde el capital social se genere en las relaciones sociales y se negocie. Lo anterior permitirá desmitificar la idea de que el poder y el empoderamiento son lineales y visualizar a las mujeres mixtecas como sujetos capaces de ejercer poder. 2013-01-01 2021-06-03T03:33:37Z 2021-06-03T03:33:37Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Analytical research; qualitative; event analysis Investigación analítica; cualitativa; análisis de caso https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/78 10.21670/ref.2013.27.a04 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12930/6433 spa https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/78/121 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/78/122 Derechos de autor 2014 Estudios Fronterizos, Revista de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades application/pdf text/html Universidad Autónoma de Baja California Estudios Fronterizos Revista; Vol. 14 No. 27 (2013); 97-122 Estudios Fronterizos; Vol. 14 Núm. 27 (2013); 97-122 2395-9134 0187-6961
