Abstract:
Seeking to incorporate Puerto Morelos into the process of "modernization," the government encouraged participation of different social actors who, realizing its potential for fishing but especially for tourism, imposed certain forms of exploitation of natural resources and use of coastal areas which would be key to the economic gains from these activities. The aim of this study was to document the process by which tourism landscapes took shape along the coast, based on confrontations between different social actors during the transition period that spanned from the import substitution crisis to the adoption of economic neoliberalism, when that coastal space and its natural resources passed from state to private ownership. This study adopts the theoretical and methodological contributions of several authors that allowed us to understand the transformations of the landscape in the context of social confrontation. El Estado, en busca de integrar a Puerto Morelos a la “modernización”, incitó la participación de distintos actores sociales, quienes al vislumbrar su potencial pesquero, pero sobre todo turístico, impondrían ciertas formas de aprovechamiento sobre los recursos naturales y en los espacios costeros, que serían pieza clave en las ganancias económicas derivadas de esta actividad. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue documentar el proceso de conformación de los paisajes turísticos configurados a lo largo de la costa, a partir de las confrontaciones entre los actores sociales durante el periodo de transición, que va de la crisis del modelo de sustitución de importaciones al neoliberal en el que este lugar, junto con sus recursos naturales, transitó de la apropiación estatal a la propiedad privada. Aquí se retomaron las aportaciones teórico-metodológicas de diversos autores, que permitieron comprender las transformaciones del paisaje en el contexto de la confrontación social.
