México profundo : reclaiming a civilization
Bonfil Batalla, Guillermo
México profundo : reclaiming a civilization / Guillermo Bonfil Batalla - Austin, TX : University of Texas Press , 1998, c1996 - 198 p. ; 23 cm
This translation of a major work in Mexican anthropology argues that Mesoamerican civilization is an ongoing and undeniable force in contemporary Mexican life. For Guillermo Bonfil Batalla, the remaining Indian communities, the "de-Indianized" rural mestizo communities, and vast sectors of the poor urban population constitute the Mexico profundo. Their lives and ways of understanding the world continue to be rooted in Mesoamerican civilizations.
