Description
Summary:This article examines the social relations linked to land regulation in a context marked by a drug-based political economy and repression. The local implementation of the National Certification Program of Land Rights under the Ejido system (Procede) serves to analyze the relationship between local stakes and individual strategies. Using the account of the local population, local archives and direct observations, I analyze the key transformations in the economy of the sierra, the power relations within a regime of communal land use and the experiences of military repression. I argue here that the drug-based political economy which has pushed Badiraguato to the marginality, is inseparable from the state practices of criminalization. This research is based on 18 months of ethnographic studies carried out between November 2013 and June 2015 in the municipality of Badiraguato (Sinaloa, Mexico).
