Losing Faith in the State, Some Mexican Towns Quietly Break Away

I am not really aware of specific issues with larger ones, but I've never seen mention of sizes beyond a certain point (small towns, marginalized areas in the mountains, etc). I'd love to have better references on this.

No, I was trying to refer to Eduardo the writer. He's written about Zapatistas' Caracoles a bit. Can't find the specific text though :(

I'll keep an eye out for translations of Eduado Galeano's work, thanks for the recommendation!

I think it's going to be pretty hard to find the relevant texts among Galeano's work.

Closest thing I could find with a tiny bit of information about Caracoles is the Wikipedia page translated with Google :/

But at least maybe you can find some pointers there in case you want to do a bit more research.

In any case, my Keybase profile is in my hn profile so you can get in touch with me if you want to.

Cheers!
