Résumé anglais School and Power in Peasant Communities in Chicontepec (Mexico) The first teachers responsible in the 1930s "castilizing" the Huasteca Indians were, quite naturally, mestizos belonging to the dominant minority. In this regard, they helped moderate the impact of land reform, organize the labor market and refer excess local labor to plantations on the nearby coastal plain. Having soon forgotten Indian languages and being attracted by other occupations, they were replaced as teachers by natives from the better-off strata. The latter, while maintaining their allegiance to a national union that is a pillar of centralism, became the spokesmen voicing local demands for a broader participation of Indians in the municipal government.
