De la resiliencia a la transformación de las organizaciones. caso campesinos ecológicos de la sierra madre de Chiapas
This article analyzes the origin and development of peasant organizational processes oriented towards the production of fair trade organic coffee in the Biosphere Reserve El Triunfo, Chiapas, Mexico; as well as the elements that make it possible for them to remain. From the perspective of social constructivism, and making use of qualitative methodology, the trajectory of the peasant coffee organization CESMACH (Ecological Farmers of the Sierra Madre de Chiapas, Civil Society) is examined. We found that the development and permanence of this peasant organization is based on shared subjectivities, permanent collective actions, its own norms, self-management and adaptive capacities, appropriate value chains and the redistribution of benefits which impact the fulfillment of the vision, mission and principles of both the peasant association and those of the natural protected area. It can be considered an exceptional case, because of the support and external resources received in its beginnings, but without creating dependency.
