Memoria y tradición: dos recursos para la construcción de las identidades locales
Memory and tradition: two resources for the construction of local identities.This article analyses two manuscripts written, before his death, by Don Margarito Ramirez Luna who was the wardenof the town of Los Reyes, Coyoacn. These sort of testimonies,where the past is reconstituted, represent privileged sourcesof information in order to enter into the processes in which the sense of town ownership is assembled and at the sametime of the city the belong to. During the analysis it is shown,how in the course of time, social identities with territorialproperty are transformed in order to remain thanks to theabsorption of these historical places in to the urban stain ofthe big city. However, this process is not free from pressure because it puts many different interests at stake due to theusage and appropriation of urban areas.
