The important forth section of Zugman's dissertation is an account of Mayan influence on Zapatista political principles. She endeavors to detail some of the principles and then describes how the Mexico City-based FZLN (Zapatista National Liberation Front) seeks to practice them. The principles she focuses on included "command by obeying; listening to the other; building a world where many worlds fit; and walking at a slower pace".
