Resumen
This article refers to the uprising and socio-legal struggle that led the indigenous community of Cherán, Mexico, to their liberation from the double yoke of organized crime and lowintensity democracy, through the conquest of their autonomy and self-government. From the experience of this Purepecha people, we will emphasize the notion of Good Communitarian Government, an ancestral figure of democratic management that will allow us to reconstruct the practical organization of its autonomy and to emphasize the importance of solidarity and community. Through these last ones we will establish the convergence between the experience of Cherán and the subaltern cosmopolitanism, a critical notion developed by the Portuguese sociologist Boaventura de Sousa Santos with which shares a kind of epistemic inspiration and his counterhegemonic character.
