Abstract

This interview aims to understand the way in which militant legal anthropology serves us to defend the rights of groups in vulnerable situations, in this case indigenous peoples. Beyond being a legal anthropology that imposes the form and way of defending these groups, it dialogues with the reference subjects to understand their methodologies and forms of organisation that serve a lot for the counter-hegemonic use of law, in favour of the violated people for whom the law was not made. This militant legal anthropology is a way of making anthropology in Mexico more practical than theoretical.
