Spaces, Places, Territories and Regions. Towards a (re) Definition of Totonacapan as Region
Abstract
Region has been an essential concept on social and historical investigation. Put aside as concept since 90's, this paper aims to review its history as well as reopens its actual pertinence for a specific space of contemporary Mexico: Totonacapan. From a brief itinerary by its genealogy and the diverse forms in which several academic trends has demarcated region, I'll try to see if such ways are still current in relation to proposed regional space, for finally and closing the journey, draw from my field experience a possible rework, valid for contemporary.
