Mexico
Un sarape es una manta lisa que lleva un indio mexicano, el charro mexicano, todos los mexicanos, en una palabra. Igualmente listadas y de violentos contrastes son las culturas de México, que marchan juntas y, al mismo tiempo, media un abismo de siglos entre ellas.

striped
In this context it's the image of a striped ("listado") garment. It happens to fit well in English, while conveying the same image:
Equally striped< in violent contrasts are the cultures of Mexico.
Equally striped< in violent contrasts are the cultures of Mexico.
