Abstract: In this presentation, I will explain the process of autonomy of the community of Jaracuaro Michoacán, starting from the indigenous congresses that were held in Mexico, such as the 169 pact, which sought to be a mechanism for dialogue to achieve participation and consultation to debate the problems of the community.The declaration of the jungle condones it and the emergence of the EZLN raises its voice for the respect of indigenous rights, seeking to meet their basic needs, as in the community of Cheran where there was also an uprising to defend their territory from the plundering of its natural resources.Several authors mention the definition of autonomy and what its essential characteristics are, focused on the benefit of the community.I will mention the sections of the political constitution of the United Mexican States, the constitution of the state of Michoacán and the municipal organic law that give communities the right to self-determination.In the community of Jaracuaro, the idea of being autonomous arose due to different situations that resulted in the community deciding to be autonomous. I will explain the most important events in the process of achieving autonomy, until the objective was reached.
