@article{Murillo-Licea_2019, title={Indigenous territoriality and water, beyond watersheds}, url={https://revistaselectronicas.ujaen.es/index.php/atma/article/view/4509}, DOI={10.17561/at.14.4509}, abstractNote={<p><em>Water management in Mexico has been organized in river basins (at least on paper, from a planning and not from a reflection on concrete actions), which are territorial units defined by the naturalness of geography. However, there are other types of territorialities that are indigenous, where water plays an important role. The objective of this article is to make an account of the main dimensions of indigenous territoriality in Mexico, considering the anthropological literature and the field work carried out by the author in several indigenous regions in Mexico, for more than 15 years. In the knowledge of indigenous territoriality, elements derived from cultures and the worldview are taken into account, including: the role of mountains and water; a relational or connectivity logic between elements of the landscape and sacred places; the supernatural beings; ritual circuits and territorial dynamism and borders or interpenetration areas. The author advocates for the recognition of these other territorialities within the framework of cultural diversity.</em></p>}, number={14}, journal={Agua y Territorio / Water and Landscape}, author={Murillo-Licea, Daniel}, year={2019}, month={Dec.}, pages={33–44} }
