Agrarian Change and Privatization of Ejido Land in Northern Mexico
This paper uses the findings of a 1999 case study of ejidos (collective landholdings) in the Yaqui Valley, Sonora, a prominent agricultural region of northwest Mexico, to examine responses to a series of economic and legal reforms enacted as part of Mexico’s ‘Reform of the Countryside’, which began in the late 1980s.

متن کاملSpecificity of Control: The Case of Mexico’s Ejido Reform
Over the course of 15 years, between 1992 and 2007, Mexico carried out a major land titling program that handed out certificates over usage rights for more than 90% of its communally held land (ejidos).

متن کاملDangerous Liaisons on the Altiplano. Asymmetric Information, Opportunistic Behavior and Sharecropping Contracts in a Mexican Ejido
La Soledad case is illustrative of the contracting issue under conditions where reputation as an enforcement device is ineffective, and where there is no coercive power. Initially, tenancy practices were organized among local actors, on the basis of personal relationships; contractual enforcement was not a critical issue.
