- Title
Geografías diversas, vidas paralelas, destinos comunes: relatos de mujeres de/en un mismo país.

- Abstract
This text explores the memory of two women, whose existences were, apparently, habitual, ordinary, everyday, paced by their personal times and spaces, by the rhythm of life. The richness of their testimonies, of their spoken words, lies in the fact that they open windows that illuminate countless small scenarios, made up of multiple voices and unique, singular, collective and universal experiences in unison that, when interwoven, make up a great social world. These oral accounts take on a surprising cultural dimension: they record and identify dimensions of women who belong to the same generation even though they lived in different symbolic spaces and geographical locations in the same country: Mexico City, in the center of the country, and Chiapas, the southernmost state of the national territory. The stories of these women were forged in these states and were also defining in their personal experiences, delimiting their cultural identity, their gender condition, their ascription and their belonging to a social group.
