the political status and rights of indigenous people in Chiapas since 1990? I am studying the change in political status and the rights of the indigenous people of Chiapas after the Zapatista rebellion in 1994, as well as after the agreement on the San Andres Accords in 1996. I am very interested in the causes, scale, scope, and effectiveness of the San Andres Accords, which was signed by the Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional (EZLN) and the Mexican government in 1996. The San Andres…

Americans were wanting this land; it was easy for them to take this land as well. Mexicans would have to go to court…

Mexico has had obtained a huge reputation of having bad presidents, the people don’t even vote for this very reason, they know that the nation will not change. However, there was a time that the people used to think differently. They used to believe in those promises, that time occurred in the revolution and ended around the 50’s.
