Mexico’s cultural diversity in the 21st century

Abstract

This research takes as its fundamental premise the relevance of integrating a comprehensive judicial system concerning indigenous rights in Mexico which enables the institutions and norms of Mexican positive law to coexist in harmony with the judicial systems of the original indigenous peoples inhabiting Mexican national territory. This is a complex social-judicial study that seeks to facilitate the transition from the monocultural judicial hegemony stage as exercised in this field by the State-Nation power, to a stage of multicultural judicial pluralism. The analysis encompasses the international, federal, state, municipal and community levels. The hypothesis is built on the orientation of the recognition of Mexico as a multiethnic and pluricultural nation, and in the importance given to the rights consecrated in favor of of these human groups thanks to the reform of articles 1 and 2 of the Mexican Constitution in 2001. It is also justified by the transcendence of this task for the constitutional legislator, and by the importance of preserving the cultural wealth and diversity of the 62 indigenous communities living in Mexico for the future.
