Este es un trabajo presentado en la IV reunión del Seminario Interinstitucional de Estudios Oaxaqueños, organizada en la Oaxaca en 2016 a cargo de la Universidad Autónoma Beníto Júarez de Oaxaca y El Colegio de Michoacán.
Aborda a grandes rasgos aspectos que vincularon la región de Oaxaca y Guatemala en la época hispana y la posindependencia. Abordo de manera panorámica similitudes geográficas y productivas, procesos económicos (producción de grana, añil y menciones al cacao y ganadería) y finalmente casos particulares de individuos que se movilizaron entre Guatemala y Oaxaca en el sigo XVIII y XIX. Debo indicar que es un trabajo construido con a base a referencias bibliográficas y no trabajo de archivo. Finalmente es un primer insumo para el proyecto de investigación doctoral que realizo en el Colegio de MIchoacán.

The paper analyzes state formation as the process whereby power/knowledge complexes organize, use and produce social space. In particular the focus is placed on private land ownership as a historical form of land possession. Privatization of land as a technique of government produced a homogeneous fragmentation of space, and the argument made in the paper is that this space became the primary technique in the construction of dualized Salvadorean society based on the exclusion from the political nation of a large group of delinquent and deviant bodies that should be policed, and the inclusion in the political nation of a small group of land owning individuals that took part in politics.
