We Have Come to Offer Something Which (They) Were Not Even Looking for”: U.S. Christian Conservative Evangelical Faith Missions in the Ecuadorian Upper Amazon
At the end of the 19th century, U.S. Christians began to dramatically shift their Christian missionary focus from Asia and the South Pacific toward Latin America, launching what would become the most significant missionary movement of the 20th century (Bastian 1990; Walls 1991; Álvarez 2015; Kirkpatrick 2019). Various evangelical leaders and scholars have credited the U.S. missionaries in Latin America as modernizers who promoted literacy and ins…
Escobar's Narcos and Whiteness: Fantasising of the American Dream by Fetishising Latinx and Latin Americans
The Quest for Indigenous Autonomy: Communication Media, Internal Conflicts, and Policy Reform in Colombia
In 2013, the National Indigenous Organization of Colombia (ONIC) and the national government signed Agreement No. 547, which commissioned to the five main national indigenous organizations of the country the drafting of a bill to propel the strengthening of the indigenous media in Colombia. This political reform would represent a significant advance in the democratization of the historically monopolized and exclusive Colombian media landscape, th…

This article refutes dominant views that define evangelical indigenous media as intrinsic tools for religious indoctrination. The case of the Colombian Misak community shows that evangelical radio stations can contribute to community building. However, the degree of the positive or negative contribution of evangelical media depends on the dominance of evangelical presence at indigenous localities. The rapid expansion of indigenized evangelical gr…
Foes and allies: The Catholic Church, Acción Cultural Popular (Acpo), and the emergence of the indigenous movement in Cauca, Colombia
Literature on Latin American social movements has discussed the contributions of post-Second Vatican Council (SVC) (1963–1965) progressive branches of the Catholic Church in the formation of indigenous movements. However, this literature has largely ignored discussions on the intervention of non-SVC and conservative branches of the Catholic establishment. This article illustrates the role of the modernizing educational program Acción Cultural Pop…
Representación indígena en el periodismo colombiano: El Cómo Y El Por Qué

Basado en el análisis de contenido de 238 artículos de dichos periód…
