Coordonnateur du programme de ressources biologiques collectives, Commission nationale mexicaine pour la connaissance et l'utilisation de la biodiversité (Conabio), Jorge Larson Guerra a présenté ses travaux sur le processus de certification (IG) du mezcal (alcool d'agave) au Mexique. Atelier organisé par l'Iddri. Résumé
Mezcales -wild cousins and forefathers of tequila facing the threats of industrialization- are traditional spirits widely differentiated throughout Mexico. Their deep history and current battles will be described to provide a specific scenario in which to discuss the politics of space from the mezcal landscapes of rural indigenous communities to the marble halls of trade and intellectual property in Geneva.
