%X this paper shows the historical process of the mexican agrarian reform in the 20th century and explains how £¿t took place in the state of campeche. it demonstrates how an attempt by post-revolutionary governments to return and provide land for communities became an opportunity to restore and consolidate communal ownership. it also reveals how the omissions and inconsistencies of the laws during the process gave rise to errors such as not imagining that communities still had land and not knowing how to classify them. nevertheless, most of the time, these mistakes enabled peasants to obtain large expanses of land. lastly, it discusses the way the agrarian reform permitted the continuation of a cultural feature, common ownership, which has formed part of the identity of maya groups in the state of campeche.
