Este libro es una apuesta del autor por condensar en varios capítulos un conjunto de temas variados que han contribuido a la formación de un entramado social que, desde tiempos inveterados, ha sido formado por aborígenes, negros y mestizos de todos los colores. Se trata de una investigación, soportada sobre información documental y de la tradición oral, que nos permite conocer cómo se fue construyendo la vida económica, social, política y cultural de un municipio y de parte de su vecindario, así como los aportes de la mujer al desarrollo de esa zona. Sin lugar a dudas, es un libro esclarecedor de la historia de una zona del Magdalena, bañada por el río Magdalena y varias ciénagas, entre ellas la de Zapayán, subregión en la que el agua ha jugado un papel fundamental en el poblamiento, el desarrollo económico, la vida social, y la formación de la identidad cultural.

Transitions from authoritarian to democratic governments can provide ripe scenarios for the emergence of new, insurgent political actors and causes. During peaceful transitions, such movements may become influential political players and gain representation for previously neglected interests and sectors of the population. But for this to happen, insurgent social movements need opportunities for mobilization, success, and survival. This book looks at Mexico's Zapatista movement, and why the movement was able to mobilize sympathy and support for the indigenous agenda inside and outside of the country, yet failed to achieve their goals vis-à-vis the Mexican state.
