Construcción socioterritorial: reflexiones a partir del entorno, el arraigo y los cuidados en una localidad mexicana

Abstract

This article presents an approach to socio-territorial construction based on the conceptual overlap between context or natural environment, rootedness, and reproductive care. For this, exploratory and descriptive research is carried out that triangulated three qualitative research techniques using the deductive method. The main findings show that how a community in Guanajuato configures its roots in a territory is associated with the characteristics of its production-consumption process, anchored in the natural conditions of the territory and the social bonds of care that emanate from this process and conditions. One of the contributions of this analysis is that it incorporates the perspective of reproductive care into the construction of territories, being necessary to deepen regional studies to advance in this type of knowledge.
