Automation and Extraction. Shifting (In)Visibilities at New Technological Frontiers: An Introduction
Coined as Industry 4.0, innovations in automation are portrayed as heralding a new era of change and possibility amid the climate crisis and resource depletion. As research fields, however, the domain of automation and that of extraction are often studied in isolation and within different research traditions. With this special issue, we bring these research fields into dialogue by exploring the mutual reinforcements of automation and extraction i…
Prosperity and the Flow of Vital Substances: Relating to Earth Beings in Processes of Mobility in the Southern Peruvian Andes
Within and beyond the law: The ethics of collective action in urban markets, Peru
This article focuses on collective action and leadership in processes of (in)formalizing market work. It examines ways in which semi-legal actors employ ‘modes of administration’ and suggests that market leaders enact a form of ‘state proxy’ by drawing on an ethic of collective action rooted in Andean notions of kinship, work, and exchange. The article argues that we need to explore this ethic to understand the uncertainties of informality at the…
Returning to Nature: Post-carbon Utopias in Svalbard, Norway
While industrial closures in past decades were legitimized through an emphasis on economic motives, current closures are often framed within an emphasis on ‘green transition’, that is, through prefigurative discourses about post-carbon futures. This article discusses how the prefigurative transition framework reshapes the industrialization narrative, seeking to bridge the anthropology of energy and theories of performance. By paying attention to …

Becoming 'Wild' at the Intersection of Knowledges: Coffee Rust Crisis in Costa Rica
This article explores the relationship between visualism, practice and knowledge through the specific case of the 2012-2013 coffee rust-epidemic and its repercussions among small-scale coffee farmers in Turrialba, Costa Rica. The article shows how the rust-epidemic marked an alteration not only in farmers and agronomists' perceptions of roya, but also in farming practices. The argument of the article is twofold: First, that the perceptual shift o…
Indigenous Life Projects and Extractivism: Ethnographies from South America
This open access volume explores questions of indigeneity, difference and ontological dynamics in the Andes and Amazonia. While studies of extractivism in the region often focus on wider national and international politics, these contributions instead explore indigenous politics and perspectives
Prosperity and the Flow of Vital Substances: Relating to Earth Beings in Processes of Mobility in the Southern Peruvian Andes
Border Multiplicities: At the Cross-Roads between Improvisation and Regulation in the Andes
Focusing on illicit trade between Peru and Bolivia, this article is concerned with border-work as it unfolds at the cross-roads between improvisation and regulation. The argument of the article is two-fold. First, it argues that cross-border trade in this context must be understood as socially and spatially embedded. The trade involves a sense of local autonomy and networks of cooperation and exchange that not only facilitate illicit trade, but a…
Made in China'. Contraband, Labour and the Gendered Effects of 'Free-Trade', China-Peru
In Peru, textiles have increasingly become contested as commodities and objects of consumption, especially following the free trade agreement between Peru and China, signed in 2009, which accommodates increased importation of Chinese textiles. This article discusses how local intermediaries, often women who have found a livelihood working with the importation and vending of textiles, are affected by increased border regulations and competition fr…

Losing fat, gaining treatments: The use of biomedicine as a cure for folk illnesses in the Andes
BACKGROUND: This article explores how people in the Andes incorporate beliefs from both biomedical and ethnomedical systems in treating folk illnesses that often involve spiritual beings. The article focuses on the kharisiri-one who is believed to steal fat and blood from unsuspecting humans to make exchanges with the devil. The kharisiri in turn is rewarded with good fortune. Victims of kharisiris, however, fall ill and may die if untreated. His…

Sources of danger and prosperity in the Peruvian Andes: Mobility in a powerful landscape
This article argues for the importance of understanding questions of mobility in both ritual and cosmological senses. In the rural Andes, people negotiate their spatial situatedness through reciprocal means that they see as central for the fertility of the land and animals as well as for the well-being of the community. The article discusses how this relational understanding of the powerful surroundings is reproduced or changed as people move to …
