Abstract

In this chapter, Narciso Barrera-Bassols and Gerónimo Barrera explore the significant impacts and changes in land use that resulted from colonial projects in the Mesoamerican region during the colonial period. The chapter examines these projects as new ways of interacting with and understanding the environment, which led to significant changes throughout the region's landscape in the rise of the Capitalocene. It delves into various factors and actors, focusing on the establishment of property rights, new settlement patterns, and labor practices, as well as the development of an extractive spatial structure that had lasting and uneven effects on the environment and inhabitants.
