Abstract
El artÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âculo analiza las interrelaciones entre turismo y polÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âtica considerando el impacto de la rebeliÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚³n indÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âgena zapatista en el turismo en Chiapas, MÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚©xico. Mediante el anÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚¡lisis de productos turÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âsticos y observaciones de campo la transformaciÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚³n de la industria turÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âstica se explica como efecto de las presiones de un nuevo tipo de visitante, el ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"turista politizadoââ"šÂ¬Ã¢"žÂ¢. AtraÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âdo por el movimiento indÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âgena y su relevancia como movimiento social global su posiciÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚³n polÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âtica e ideolÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚³gica creÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚³ demandas que impactaron sobre las redes organizacionales interÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚©tnicas y el valor social de la actividad turÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âstica. Como respuesta agentes turÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âsticos indÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âgenas y no indÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âgenas generaron nuevas estrategias para la recuperaciÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚³n de su economÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âa, incluyendo cambios en las redes organizacionales y comercializando sÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âmbolos e ideologÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âas como ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"productosââ"šÂ¬Ã‚ turÃÆ'Ã"šÃ‚Âsticos. = The paper analyses the interrelations between politics and tourism considering the impact of political instability generated by the Zapatista indigenous rebellion on tourism in Chiapas, Mexico. By analysing tourist products and fieldwork observations the transformation of the tourist industry is explained as an effect of pressures from a new kind of visitor, ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"political touristsââ"šÂ¬Ã‚Â. Attracted by the indigenous movement and its relevance as a global social movement, their political and ideological position created demands that affected interethnic organisational networks and the social value of tourism activity. As a response indigenous and non indigenous tourist agents generated new strategies for economic recovery, including changes in the organisational networks and marketing symbols and ideologies as ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"commoditiesââ"šÂ¬Ã‚Â.
