- Abstract
Poverty alleviation is one of the most important challenges in Mexico addressed mostly from the economic point of view and frequently leaving aside the perspective of social capital, which gives great importance to the deficiencies of socioemotional goods of social groups affected by poverty. The objective of this study was to understand the social capital of the groups of indigenous artisans who are beneficiaries of the Program for Indigenous Production and Productivity of the National Commission for the Development of Indigenous Peoples, and how fraternal and social ties have influenced the improvement of production and the wellbeing of indigenous families. A survey was applied to 54 beneficiaries devoted to the elaboration of wool, clay and wood handcrafts in five municipalities with high and very high marginalization in the Sierra de Zongolica, state of Veracruz. The results show that there is great trust from members of the groups towards the leader and between one another. This study proposes a composed index of fraternal ties, among which some stood out such as sharing economic benefits, increase in productivity, trust in the group, and sharing of knowledge.
