Resumen
HERENCIA-CARRASCO, Salvador. Litigating Indigenous Rights in Mexico: The Juba Wajiín in San Miguel del Progreso. Iuris Dictio [online]. 2022, n.30, pp.89-97. ISSN 2528-7834. https://doi.org/10.18272/iu.v30i30.2391.
In June 2017, the Júba Wajiín were the first Mexican indigenous peoples to reverse a decision by the Ministry of Finance, which had authorized the granting of approximately 80% of their territory to mining concessions. This significant victory of the Júba Wajiín was achieved in a Mexican court. The purpose of this article is to raise awareness about the struggle of the Júba Wajiín, an indigenous Me'phaa people in the state of Guerrero, Mexico. The article will analyze how the community organized itself socially and legally to protect its rights before courts, concluding with some possible lessons of this case for other Indigenous Peoples in Mexico and Latin America.
