• Resumen

  • This article reviews, from the anthropological framework of anthropologist Richard N. Adams for the analysis of powe rstructures, the causes which lead national governments to the construction of gigantic hydroelectric reservoirs. His empirical reference is the construction of the Miguel Alemán reservoir in the Low Mazateca, which reaches the states of Oaxaca and Veracruz (Mexico). At the same time, it under-takes a dialogue with Karl Wittfogel’s Oriental Despotism theory
