The Values of Water
This article examines the symbolic transformations and material consequences of an irrigation development project designed to empower indigenous peoples in Canar, Ecuador. It argues that the project deepened market society and reproduced colonialism more than it empowered indigenous peoples, but indigenous people found ways to ap- propriate project resources and embed the market in alternative principles of social life. Market society deepened th…

Ethnodevelopment
Indigenous social movements have become important development actors in recent years.

The Sovereign and its Shadow
A crucial development in current Latin American politics is the growing involvement of indigenous movements in democracies grappling with the challenges of regime consolidation. This article examines how Ecuador's indigenous movement consecrated new rights and national constitutive principles in the 1997-8 constitutional assembly. It argues that the indigenous movement defined the legitimacy and purpose of the assembly through an ideological stru…
Reterritorialised Space and Ethnic Political Participation
Municipalities with an indigenous mayor or council majority represent the reterritorialising of political units and the remaking of political subjects in Ecuadorian formal politics. These indigenous municipalities represent the successful construction of an indigenous political party, involving active citizen participation. Framed by neo-liberal decentralisation legislation in the 1990s reconfiguring Ecuador's political spaces, the reterritoriali…
