Cherán. 5 years of self-government in an indigenous community in Mexico

There is no #politicalparticipation where actual and potential involvement is not the lowest among young Hungarians: 1/3 of 🇭🇺 15-29-year-olds had absolutely no political activity.
In contrast, political passivity levels range between 10%-18% in the other #Visegrád countries.

I’m on write-up of my #PhDdissertation on Political (dis)engagement in the #Visegrád countries. Since facing the end one faces the risk of having missed out on something key, I thought to ask Mastodon’s community whether you have in mind readings that *cannot be missed* on the theme.
Any suggestions? Let’s see if this works.
