Resumen
Despite to an increasing public and academic attention to racism in Mexico, we still need to build a consistent understanding that racism is a system that has historically organized and distributed privileges and power in multiple ways. It continues to be difficult to recognize anti-indigenous racism as a social fact and as an important category for academic analysis. Indigenous people make decisions and design strategies to survive racism in each case or situation. Here I present an analysis of the strategies that professional indigenous people have develop to endure, challenge and contest racism. I have organized these strategies under the categories of: assimilation, double effort, negation and confrontation. All this from a critical stance in front the social tendency to limit racism to individual experiences because from that this position results in an isolated and emptied interpretation of social and historical content. In addition, through testimonies of indigenous men and women I present an argument against underestimating the consequences of racism in the lives of racialized subjects.

Resumen
El artículo explora la potencialidad de la genómica de reforzar ideas biologizantes sobre la raza que validen, con una capacidad tecnológica sin precedentes, conocidas jerarquías coloniales. Problematiza las nociones de ‘elección’ y ‘autonomía’ que suelen respaldar argumentos a favor de la edición humana. Se advierte sobre los riesgos de una eugenesia neoliberal que reproduzca, desde los individuos y ya no desde el estado, conocidas jerarquías raciales. Se discuten las implicaciones de la reiteración de la raza como una realidad biológica y se argumenta que esta insistencia funciona como una herramienta poderosa para justificar un proyecto científico avalado y facilitado por el estado. El artículo argumenta que las nuevas ciencias de la vida plantean retos que afectan especialmente a las mujeres y a las poblaciones racializadas. Sin un marco legislativo adecuado, estas tecnologías podrían abrir la puerta a un nuevo proyecto eugenésico con un poder sin precedentes.

Resumen
Despite two decades of extensive scholarship on and from decolonial feminisms, there is a significant gap in the space of enunciation of mestiza women and the ethical political commitments we must assume as part of broader collective struggles against colonial power structures. This article contributes to the incipient body of knowledge produced on mestizaje and whiteness within decolonial feminisms in Latin America. Although it is a priority to listen to and learn from Indigenous and Afro-descendant women, regardless if whether they identify as feminists, the political commitment of mestiza women cannot remain limited to this first step. On the contrary, it must expand to include critical reflections and collective proposals as part of broader anti-colonial struggles.

Resumen
This research examines young and adult returnees, belonging to the 1.5 generation of migrants in the US, during their return to Mexico. Our study analyzes the notions these young adults have about “being Mexicans” to understand how they experience and build their citizenship in Mexico. Our findings suggest that returning migrants go through two important learnings during their citizenship-building process. On the one hand, they learn to exercise their formal citizenship (rights and obligations) derived from their Mexican nationality. On the other hand, they also learn to become substantive “Mexicans in Mexico,” by developing acts of resistance that allow them to bridge the tensions associated with the creation of their own definition of Mexican citizenship.

Resumen
This article analyzes the impact of the Argentine attitudinal structure on political preferences in the 2015 elections. Using data from lapop 2016-2017, we first identify the map of latent dimensions that structure public opinion. We then test the hypotheses on the effect of these dimensions on voting. The results show that attitudes related to issues of social mobilization, expressed in terms of “rebels vs. conformists”, are the most relevant ones for party choice. The dimensionality of political conflict from the perspective of the electorate has scarcely been studied in Latin America, so it is hoped that the results of this research will be comparable with other cases in the region in the future.

Resumen
The paper analyzes the debate on Agency-Structure from rival approaches: sociological neoinstitutionalism and neostructural sociology. The first is discussed considering research on public entrepreneurship. The second takes White’s (2008) theory of netdoms as a reference. The objective is to identify characteris-tics of the social structure that enhance the performance of actors engaged in processes of organizational genesis. The analysis of the genesis of the Forums to Combat Corruption in Brazil illustrates the arguments presented. Techniques of analysis of social networks and factorials combine to typify identities and structural places that explain the role that concrete actors play in the dynamization of new institutions in the public sector. It is concluded that the organizational genesis demands competences distributed unevenly in the field.

Resumen
This paper presents results from current research on displaced persons. A little-studied aspect concerns the possibilities of insertion in violent contexts when they come from settings stigmatized by their geographical location and drug cultivation. Using an interdisciplinary approach comprising micro sociology and ethnography, a case study combined with the life course perspective allows one to observe: 1) the displacement process; 2) the life conditions and expectations for displaced persons in the reception context (Atoyac de Álvarez), and 3) the stereotypes and social stigma surrounding farm workers from the highlands, which restricts their chances of settling and exercising their rights.

Resumen
The spread of outsourcing has had consequences on the quality of employment, generating different working conditions for direct and outsourced workers. This article focuses on a specific dimension of employment: safety at work of outsourced employees. The research investigates the reasons given by petrochemical workers in Argentina for the recurrence of more serious accidents among subcontracted workers. Based on interviews to workers in this sector, four sets of explanations were identified: poor training on risk management and lack awareness-raising on how to take the necessary precautions; deficiencies in the quality of the safety supplies utilized; the very nature of the outsourced tasks; and the lack of union protection.

Resumen
This paper contributes to the debate surrounding Simmel’s theory of alienation by examining his concept of the division of labour. Despite being widely recognized as a defining aspect of the philosopher’s sociological theory, the division of labour is itself rarely treated as something to be defined. I show how the concept is theoretically rooted in the modern tradition and claim that its definitive historical contribution consists in having offered –in a nonetheless contradictory and apologetic manner– a notion of capitalist modernity in which the alienation of human subjective attributes appears as a chief characteristic.

Resumen
The purpose of this paper is to provide an economic and sociodemographic overview of the richest percentile in Mexico. The paper is divided into two parts. First, using household income surveys in Mexico during the 1984-2018 period, a correlation of absolute and relative income is drawn between different periods to observe the oscillation of its absolute income, its share of total income, periodic accumulation and the types of origin of its income. Second, assuming that there is a reduction of income in the highest part of the surveys, absolute income is modified based on similar percentages of the richest percentile in similar countries to Mexico calculated by other authors.
