摘要人类学越来越关注某些政治条件如何为土著运动和环境行为者和话语之间的“联系”奠定基础。然而，很少有人注意到这些同样的条件如何能够压制对土著权利的要求。在这篇文章中，我认为，配对的新自由主义和多元文化主义在当代墨西哥创造了政治领域中，种族差异已成为一种方式，否认某些权利的边缘化群体。借鉴在北方墨西哥进行的民族学实地考察，我分析了如何在科罗拉多三角洲的一组库卡帕捕鱼权的参数已在这些政治环境中受到限制。我认为，墨西哥联邦政府和当地非政府组织利用文化差异，以防止环境资源的重新分配，如Cucapa弱势群体。
ABSTRACT There has been a growing interest in anthropology regarding how certain political conditions set the stage for “articulations” between indigenous movements and environmental actors and discourses. However, relatively little attention has been paid to how these same conditions can suppress demands for indigenous rights. In this article, I argue that the pairing of neoliberalism and multiculturalism in contemporary Mexico has created political fields in which ethnic difference has been foregrounded as a way of denying certain rights to marginalized groups. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork conducted in northern Mexico, I analyze how the arguments of a group of Cucapa for fishing rights in the Colorado Delta have been constrained within these political circumstances. I argue that cultural difference has been leveraged by the Mexican federal government and local NGOs to prevent the redistribution of environmental resources among vulnerable groups such as the Cucapa.
