Ciudad rural sustentable de Jaltenango: aciertos y desaciertos en el ordenamiento territorial

摘要

This article analyzes the results of the Sustainable Rural Cities Program (CRS, por its name in Spanish) implemented by the government of Chiapas. It refers to the Sustainable Rural City of Jaltenango, built in 2012, in the township of Angel Albino Corzo. The program aims at assisting the population at risk of natural disasters, geographic dispersion and marginalization. This paper presents the results from four subsystems of the CRS Program: socio-demography, economic productivity, urban-land, and municipal management. Results show the benefits and some unexpected effects of the implementation of this policy. These effects must be considered in the program reviews and assessment to improve the decisions that stakeholders should make if they look for solutions to public problems.
