Attitude toward innovation and its implications for rural community development in Mexican peasant organizations

Ana L. Burgos, Octavio T. Barrera-Perales · 2023 · Community Development

Summary. Mexican peasant organizations show balanced attitudes toward innovation when examined through psychological and social factors. High social capital and good information access promote positive innovation attitudes, while cultural values present fewer barriers than commonly assumed. The study challenges stereotypes of rural communities as inherently resistant to change, revealing instead that innovation attitudes develop in response to territorial risks and constraints.
