I've an immense amount of respect for the Zapatista movement of Mexico. Unlike most 'revolutionary' groups, their outlook underlines a concern for both the personal and local, and is free from the usual fanaticism; indeed their words are often beautifully poetic.

Initially inspired by Marxist national-liberation philosophies, it would appear that by putting the theory into practice, they have found their own path, which is far more rooted and practical than anything the minds of alienated western intellectuals can produce.

Here is an article examining a recent conference held at the CIDECI (Centro Indigena de Capacitacion Integral – roughly translated as ‘An Indigenous Centre for Integral Learning’) / Universidad de la Tierra (University of the Earth) on their territory to address the role of science in the struggle for a sane existence.

There's a good deal of information about the movement both online and published in book form, here's a recent Guardian article that gives some background into their history.
