Dominant and Subordinate Ideologies in South America
The first part of this article discusses the dominant ideologies about the Indians of the Andean Highlands and the Amazon Basin in Colonial, post-Colonial, and contemporary times. The analysis concentrates on the “image of the Indian” or the ideological conceptions of ethnicity that emerge in the context of changing social relations among Indians, representatives of the State, dominant classes, and missionaries. Some of the anthropological approa…
Antología del pensamiento crítico ecuatoriano contemporáneo
Aunque la mayoría de textos reflexiona sobre el siglo XX, la historiografía ecuatoriana no está representada en esta antología. Existe un sesgo hacia trabajos más afines a las ciencias sociales y menos a las humanidades. Esta limitación surge fundamentalmente por el carácter propio de una antología que no permite seleccionar textos demasiado extensos y que además puedan leerse como ensayos por sí solos. El libro se ordena en cinco campos: la rela…
Imágenes en disputa. Representaciones de mujeres indígenas ecuatorianas
El tema más amplio de este libro es la política de representación en Ecuador en un período histórico en el que importantes acontecimientos políticos hicieron posible formas en cierto sentido dialógicas de representación sobre el tema de las etnias y la identidad nacional, entre los dos grupos mayoritarios de la Sierra ecuatoriana: los blanco-mestizos y los indígenas. A diferencia del uso más común en las ciencias sociales de imágenes visuales par…
Historia de vida de una mujer amazónica
El artículo toma como punto de partida las relaciones dialógicas entre la autora y Francisca Andi, narradora de historias del pueblo Napo-Quichua, para reflexionar sobre las condiciones del trabajo etnográfico. Para esto intercala una doble narrativa que nos remite, a su vez, a otras voces y a una diversidad de posibilidades interpretativas tanto desde el campo de la antropología como del de las propias mujeres indígenas. Se trata en este caso de…
Construir una imagen
This book presents a well-documented, clearly written account of the various images of the American Indian that circulated in Europe from the end of the fifteenth century through the beginning of the seventeenth century. Although the brief theoretical introduction on the nature of images and imagery does not break new ground, it does underline the constructed character of all representations and the importance of the social and cultural factors t…
Traces behind the Esmeraldas Shore
Although long famous for its antiquities notably intricate goldwork, elaborate pottery, and earthen mounds the Santiago-Cayapas region of coastal Ecuador has been relatively neglected from the standpoint of scientific archaeology. Until recently, no sound chronology was available, and even the approximate age of the region's most impressive monument, the large and much-looted site of La Tolita, remained in doubt.Building on evidence obtained duri…
Indigenous Women's Identities and the Politics of Cultural Reproduction in the Ecuadorian Amazon
This essay explores the current problems of cultural reproduction and identity politics in the Ecuadorian Amazon through the personal memory narratives of a group of elder indigenous women facing difficulties with their granddaughters. It argues that women's histories and their conceptions of self are inscribed in their experiences in a self-defined "domestic space." This intracultural struggle provides a better understanding of the scripts of cu…

Amazonian Indians From Prehistory to the Present

This edited volume draws on the subdisciplines of anthropology to present an integrated perspective of Amazonian studies. The contributors address transformations of native societies as a result of their interaction with Western civilization from initial contact to the present day, demonstrating that the pre- and p…

The Life and Times of Grandfather Alonso
Blanca Muratorio introduces us to Rucuyaya Alonso, a Quichua elder from the Upper Ecuadorian Amazon. Grandfather Alonso's story spans a century, as his narrative incoporates oral tradition learned from both his father and grandfather. The book alternates between chapters of Alonso's life history, and chapters analyzing the history of the world around him--the domination of the missionaries and the state, the white settlers' expropriation of land,…

Protestantism and capitalism revisited, in the rural highlands of Ecuador
The central concern of this paper is to examine some of the consequences of the penetration of capitalism among a- group of Ecuadorian Indian peasants, recently converted to Protestantism. Particular attention is given to the role played by certain ideological practices in the extraction and appropriation of the peasants' surplus. It is argued that, in addition to the analysis of the economic aspects of the interdependence between capitalist and …
Participación Social y Política de los Campesinos de Nor Yungas, Bolivia
La revolución de 1952 abrió las posibilidades de una participación social y política efectiva para la mayoría del campesinado boliviano. Al destruir la estructura económica de la hacienda, la Reforma Agraria integró totalmente a los campesinos de Nor Yungas en una economía de mercado. La posibilidad de ser dueños de la tierra y de entrar en relaciones libres de trabajo significaron un primer paso en la adquisición de los derechos ciudadanos. El a…
