Together with every collaboration of the scholars from the University of Guanajuato, they answer from local to global.

Caterin Scarlet León Morales, an attendant to both presentations, mentioned in an interview, that both productions were interesting. She added that they handled topics with vision, and mentioned "what was more interesting for me was identifying what is development and what is economic growth, because they are two completely different things, also, the part of the environment that since the 80s wasn't considered and now one of the books here talks about it". She mentioned that both titles will serve as reference for the specialization works beyond Anthropology, which is the science she studies.
