Abstract
El pueblo de Tepoztlan enfrenta distintos disyuntivas en la defensa de su territorio, en sus formas de organizacion social y en la autonomia de su organizacion comunitaria, frente a sucesivos proyectos de infraestructura y urbanizacion. Los movimientos sociales surgidos de la localidad son presentados como ejemplo de resistencia y lucha desde la organizacion local. Sin embargo, una parte de sus pobladores han asumido como parte de su economia la venta de terrenos, principalmente para la construccion de viviendas, asi como tambien para la expansion de servicios al turismo y la gentrificacion. Con base en el analisis de las actas de las asambleas comunitarias de 2015, en las que se ratifican los acuerdos de compra-venta de terrenos, se confirma su legitimidad al interior de la comunidad en tanto se adscriban a su marco normativo local: los denominados usos y costumbre. Concluimos que la defensa de su territorio y la venta de terrenos son compatibles en tanto el poder local asi lo determine, y esto les permita equilibrar sus relaciones con el entorno socioeconomico. Abstract Tepoztlan village faces different dilemmas in the defense of its territory, the forms of social organization and autonomy in its community organization, in front of successive infrastructure and urbanization projects. The social movements that have emerged from the locality have been exposed as examples of resistance and struggle from community organization. However, their inhabitants have assumed the sale of parcels, principally to housing use, as well as the expansion of services to tourism and gentrification as part of their economy. Based on the analysis of the records of the community assemblies of 2015, in which they ratify the land purchase and sale agreements, its legitimacy within the community is confirmed, as long as it adheres to its local normative framework: known as usos y costumbres. We conclude that the community management of its territory and the sale of land are compatible as long as the local powe
