Basta! Land and the Zapatista Rebellion in Chiapas

George A. Collier with Elizabeth Lowery Quaratiello

What created the EZLN rebellion in southern Mexico? These writers build a strong case that the changeover from peasant agrarianism to “modern” agribusiness in Chiapas over the past 30 years was the single most compelling force behind the creation of this homegrown guerrilla army and its intriguing cooperativist vision.
