| Summary: |
Mexico has 4,111 islands, keys and reefs off its coasts in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. Even though this insular territory is covered in federal, state, and municipal policies, some legal and environmental ambiguities, and the lack of social integration of the island populations, have resulted in heavily accentuated insularity for its inhabitants. This article carries out a general survey of the insular territory of Mexico and addresses representative cases (Cedros Island, islands in the Gulf of California, the Mary Islands, Cozumel and Isla Mujeres) to indicate possible goals of proposals for the integration of this territory and its populations in terms of common legislation to improve the conditions arising from insularity. Besides, this article will examine successful international cases in archipelagos such as the Galapagos Islands (Ecuador) and the Canary Islands (Spain), whose legal frameworks for the management of insularity take into account geographical perspectives. |
