What the paper says

Tourism to the archaeological site of Chichen Itzá has transformed the Mexican town of Pisté‐de- ‐Chichen Itzá on the Yucatan Peninsula. This article is directed at assessing the vulnerability caused bythe economic dependence on tourism that this population experiences, especially in times of disasters (Sars‐CoV2 pandemic) and crisis (the Mayan Train). 22 semi structured interviews were conducted with inhabitants of Piste working in tourism. The results show that the adaptive strategies that the inhabitants of Pisté put in place when faced with the total suspension of tourism in the archaeological site of Chichen Itzá due to the SARS‐CoV2 were solidarity, the return to local agricultural products such as the milpa and the sale of various other products. However, as soon as Chichen Itza reopened, they returned to their activities in tourism. At present, the inhabitants are experiencing vulnerability again as it is unclear to them how tourism will be reorganised with the advent of the Mayan Train. Findings confirm the vulnerability of the locals, their low negotiating power and their scarce control over their means of subsistence.
