Natural Common Resources Management in Indigenous Territories in Mexico and Paraguay

Abstract

"This paper exposes research results about indigenous territories in two Latinamerican countries, both with common natural resources managed by human local groups. We depart from these resources’ management as a common in a sustainable way, rather than being exploited in a disordered manner and eventually destroyed. Comparative research aims to reflect about tensions to use and conserve commons natural resources based in collective actions, and how internal pressures about this are managed."
