Beyond borderlines and ‘bordertowns’
Borders are sites of violence and technologies of colonial control. They are also crucibles for the creation of new subjectivities. In this essay, I provide three glances on border violence and the challenges and perhaps unexpected opportunities they represent for Indigenous agency. The first glance is autoethnographic and focuses on my early life in El Paso and Ciudad Juárez. The second one considers some episodes from the history of Amazonian b…

State and Nation Making in Latin America and Spain
Neoliberalism is often studied as a political ideology, a government program, and even as a pattern of cultural identities. However, less attention is paid to the specific institutional resources employed by neoliberal administrations, which have resulted in the configuration of a neoliberal state model. This accessible volume compiles original essays on the neoliberal era in Latin America and Spain, exploring subjects such as neoliberal public p…

“To Articulate Ourselves”
In 1979 German filmmaker Werner Herzog needed access to Native lands and labor in the Amazon to make Fitzcarraldo , his (in)famous film about a rubber baron who hauls a steamboat over a mountain in order to realize his dream of bringing opera to the jungle. The Awajún people burned down Herzog’s camp and forced him out of their lands. The Ashéninka people, however, agreed to work with Herzog. As Awajún authorities resisted Herzog and Ashéninka le…
The Fight for Human Rights Begins at Home
In the Shadows of Success
Friction, Conversion, and Contention
As a consequence of US border policies that funnel migrants through the harsh Sonoran Desert, migrants since the 1990s have been crossing and dying in large numbers on Tohono O’odham lands. This article examines the spiritual and political journey of Mike Wilson, a tribal member of the Tohono O’odham Nation, who puts water out for migrants against the wishes of his tribal council. Wilson’s road to human rights activism was a winding one. In the 1…
Encountering Indigeneity
Authenticating Indians and Movements
Decades Lost and Won
Many scholars have demonstrated that the causal relationship between the “losing” and “winning” decades can be understood in terms of the opportunities and threats that came with crisis and reform. Deborah Yashar (1997) offers a clear and influential statement of this view: In contemporary Latin American indigenous movements, the political liberalization of the 1980s provided the macropolitical opportunity for organizing ... But the incentive to …
Struggles of Voice
Fanon in the Andes
In the rise of contemporary indigenous movements in Latin America, indigenous leaders have acknowledged their debt to the Bolivian indigenous intellectual Fausto Reinaga (1906-1994), a major theorist of the anti-colonial and anti-Occidental ideology known as indianisimo. His work, especially his 1969 classic La revolución india had a profound impact on the development of indigenous movements, intellectuals, and leaders including Bolivian Presiden…
Exceptional Others
This article examines the representations of important political figures in the 2006 election in Peru, with special attention to outgoing President Alejandro Toledo, unsuccessful candidate Ollanta Humala, and the curious case of a rottweiler named Lay Fung who shortly after the election killed an alleged burglar in a working-class neighborhood in Lima. While these may seem unrelated stories, the 2006 presidential election and the case of Lay Fung…
"Representing "Real Indians
Asking who "really" speaks and acts for indigenous people is an increasingly important political question in Latin America. This article explores how an "unlikely" Evangelical Protestant Indian organization (FEINE, the Ecuadorian Evangelical Indigenous Federation) and a seemingly more "authentic" Bolivian indigenous federation of communities claiming pre-Columbian authority structures (CONAMAQ, the National Council of Markas and Ayllus of Qollasu…
Resurgent Voices in Latin America
With a formidable cast of historians, political scientists, anthropologists, and theologians, Edward Cleary and Timothy Steigenga’s new volume explores the intersections of religion and indigenous politics in Latin America. The contributors to this volume study the relationship between religious change and indigenous political mobilization in Bolivia, Ecuador, Guatemala, Mexico, Paraguay, and Peru. These case studies amply support the editors’ th…

We Alone Will Rule
"Locating the "Indian Problem
High Anxiety in the Andes
Ecuador has just emerged from its 54th state of emergency in 21 difficult years of democratic rule. 1 As in other Andean countries, economic trouble, political instability, and social unrest make democracy look far from secure. Yet, despite perpetual crisis, Ecuador has somehow avoided both the internal warfare that afflicts Colombia (its northern neighbor) and the authoritarian excesses of Peru (its neighbor to the south). A look at the events o…
