• Summary

  Amilcingo is an indigenous community southeast of Morelos state. The community is in a struggle against the Proyecto Integral Morelos (PIM), a megaproject consisting of a pipeline that crosses underground through the communal territory. Common Tools uses “territory” as a lens to examine conflict between the Mexican state and communities like this one, looking at how the land is a powerful shared resource and one that is under threat.
