Abstract
The article addresses Rarámuri cosmogony and the causes of forced migration within this community. It is a descriptive essay that integrates ius-historical, documentary, and phenomenological techniques. The main arguments revolve around the threat posed by the destruction of the Rarámuri traditions and natural environment, which affects their sense of belonging and their right to self-determination. These factors, exacerbated by violence and forced displacement, result in the migration of the communities to nonindigenous territories. The research highlights the need to recognize and protect the rights of this community to prevent their cultural and territorial disappearance.
期刊介绍:
Latin American Policy (LAP): A Journal of Politics and Governance in a Changing Region, a collaboration of the Policy Studies Organization and the Escuela de Gobierno y Transformación Pública, Tecnológico de Monterrey, Santa Fe Campus, published its first issue in mid-2010. LAP’s primary focus is intended to be in the policy arena, and will focus on any issue or field involving authority and polities (although not necessarily clustered on governments), agency (either governmental or from the civil society, or both), and the pursuit/achievement of specific (or anticipated) outcomes. We invite authors to focus on any crosscutting issue situated in the interface between the policy and political domain concerning or affecting any Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) country or group of countries. This journal will remain open to multidisciplinary approaches dealing with policy issues and the political contexts in which they take place.
