  abstract = {{T}his article examines some of the local socioeconomic repercussions of two biosphere reserves on the {Y}ucatan {P}eninsula-{R}ia {C}elestun and {R}ia {L}agartos. {W}e analyse aspects of the relationship that the residents of the six villages located within the two reserves have with their environment, by examining both the 'environmental economic activities' residents are involved in and their discourses on, and interpretations of, the notion of environment and the conservation precepts put forward by the biosphere reserves. {O}ur research explores how the objectives of the {U}nited {N}ations {E}ducational, {S}cientific and {C}ultural {O}rganization's {M}an and {B}iosphere {P}rogramme, disseminated by biosphere reserves, are put into practice on the ground. {I}n particular, we look at how environmental economic activities are experienced and practised without necessarily being accompanied by the integration, acceptance, and internalisation of conservation principles-and how these activities contribute, or fail to contribute, to the crystallisation of a new 'conservation space'.},
