Hablar sobre discursos de castas parece referir a estudios exclusivamente históricos o sociológicos, sin embargo, esta apreciación puede no ser del todo verdadera. En la actualidad, la estratificación social mexicana, parece traer consigo claras manifestaciones reminiscentes del discurso de castas colonial; siendo apreciable en el imaginario y las acciones de la población. Con ello el abordaje de esta temática exige una reflexión interdisciplinaria para identificar tales reminiscencias, mismas que a partir de procesos de reestructuración, se han configurado en un elaborado sistema clasista. El presente artículo aborda este planteamiento con una aproximación sustentada en tres ejes: histórico, literario y social, permitiendo un acercamiento que resulta fundamental para la comprensión de los fenómenos de discriminación en la sociedad mexicana actual.
To talk about the caste system seems like a reference to an analysis orientedto History or Sociology; however, this appreciation could not be completelytrue. Today, the structures of stratification in Mexico seem to have clearedreminiscent of the colonial caste system; this is evident in the popularimaginary, and the actions of the population. With this the approach to thetopic requires an interdisciplinary reflection to identify those reminiscences,which through a process of restructuration have configured an elaborateclassist system. This paper addresses this approach through aninterdisciplinary effort that is based in three axes: historical, literary andsocial, enabling a new understanding of the phenomena of discrimination intoday’s Mexican society.
