La presente investigación se realizó en la localidad pesquera/turística El Cuyo, en la Reserva de la Biósfera Ría Lagartos, Yucatán, que destaca por su gran biodiversidad. Se indagó con los habitantes sobre la importancia que atribuyen a su patrimonio natural y cultural, la postura sobre las energías renovables y la actitud hacia la transformación del territorio. El enfoque fue cualitativo, con entrevistas semiestructuradas y observación directa. Los resultados arrojaron que valoran ambos patrimonios, pero poseen poca información, en particular del cultural, a pesar de ubicarse sobre un asentamiento maya prehispánico con vestigios visibles. Hay escasa información sobre energías renovables y asocian sus ventajas únicamente con el aspecto económico. Muestran una postura a favor de un desarrollo turístico mesurado y de bajo impacto. Existe una tendencia a conservar el estilo de vida y las condiciones actuales de la localidad, tanto en jóvenes como en adultos. Estas características culturales podrían incidir positivamente en la conservación y manejo adecuado, tanto de los ecosistemas de la zona como de las estructuras arqueológicas, pero suponen poca disposición para la instalación de dispositivos de energías renovables susceptibles de modificar el paisaje.Abstract: The actual research was conducted in the fishing / tourist town of El Cuyo, in the Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve, Yucatán, which stands out for its great biodiversity. I inquired with the inhabitants about the importance attributed to their natural and cultural heritage, the position on renewable energies and the attitude towards the transformation of the territory. The approach was qualitative, with semi-structured interviews and direct observation. The results showed that they value both patrimonies, but they have little information, particularly cultural information, despite being located on a pre-Hispanic Mayan settlement with visible vestiges. There is limited information on renewable energies and they associate their advantages with the economic aspect. They show a position in favor of a measured and low impact tourism development. There is a tendency to conserve the lifestyle and current conditions of the locality, both in young people and in adults. These cultural characteristics could have a positive impact on the conservation and proper management of both, the ecosystems of the area and the archaeological structures, but they imply little disposition for the installation of renewable energy devices capable of modifying the landscape. Keywords: natural heritage; cultural heritage; tourism in protected natural areas; Ría Lagartos; renewable energies.Résumé : La présente recherche a été menée dans la ville touristique de pêche d’El Cuyo, dans la réserve de biosphère de Ría Lagartos, dans le Yucatán, qui se distingue par sa grande biodiversité. Les habitants ont été interrogés sur l’importance qu’ils attribuent à leur patrimoine naturel et culturel, leur position sur les énergies renouvelables et leur attitude visà-vis de la transformation du territoire. L’instrument d’enquête était l’entrevue semistructurée. Les résultats ont montré qu’ils valorisaient les deux patrimoines, mais ils disposaient de peu d’informations, notamment culturelles, même s’ils se trouvaient dans une colonie maya préhispanique aux vestiges visibles. Il existe peu d’informations sur les énergies renouvelables; et celles-ci associent leurs avantages uniquement à l’aspect économique. Ils montrent une position en faveur d’un développement touristique à impact modéré et faible en raison d’une tendance à conserver le mode de vie et les conditions actuelles de la localité. Ces caractéristiques culturelles pourraient avoir un effet positif sur la conservation et la gestion appropriée des écosystèmes de la région et des structures archéologiques, et impliquer une faible disposition pour l’installation de dispositifs d’énergie renouvelable susceptibles de modifier le paysage.Mots-clés : patrimoine naturel ; patrimoine culturel ; tourisme dans les espaces naturels protégés ; Ría Lagartos ;  énergies renouvelables.

As part of a deconstruction of national identity, Jennifer Jolly, in her Creating Pátzcuaro, Creating Mexico: Art, Tourism, and Nation Building under Lázaro Cárdenas, analyzes the tourist town of Pátzcuaro in the west-central Mexican state of Michoacán as a microcosm of cultural power in which tourism, art, history, and ethnicity were woven together under the presidency of Lázaro Cárdenas del Río (1934–40).

On 24 June 2002 the Departament de Sanitat i Seguretat Social de Generalitat de Catalunya (department of health and social security of the regional government of Catalonia) was notified of several cases of gastroenteritis with fever in people who had all eaten pastries known as ‘cocas.’ These pastries, which are made with eggs and have a custard filling, are produced for the festival of San Juan, which takes place annually in Catalonia on the evening of 23 June. The ‘cocas’ were all made and purchased at the same bakery in a tourist town in the province of Girona. The eggs used to make the custard in this bakery were pasteurised and cooked. The bakery is now under investigation. Three other bakeries also made and sold ‘cocas’ on 23 June, but none of the cases have been linked to these establishments.
