Agroecology, Supply Chains, and Covid-19
In cities, agroecological food consumption is often identified as an exclusive, middle-class practice. In this article, we examine changes in agroecological food circuits in urban Ecuador, amid COVID-19 breakdowns in conventional food systems. Through interviews with farmers, government officials, and NGO workers in 2020 and 2021, our research identifies three sets of experiences with distinct implications for agroecological transitions. First, s…
The anthropology of economic regeneration
Development, Citizenship, and Everyday Appropriations of Buen Vivir
The Ecuadorian state frames its development interventions in infrastructure and human capital as advances in buen vivir or 'good living'. This paper reports ethnographic research that draws attention to everyday appropriations of state discourses on buen vivir in the Amazon and Andes. Non-state actors in marginalised communities often use state discourses strategically in engagements and negotiations with state actors. We argue that uses of offic…
Introduction
Chinese investments and loans have increased rapidly over the last fifteen years in Latin America and the Caribbean, as has state-to-state cooperation.From the megaprojects of the Nicaraguan Canal and the transcontinental Brazil-Peru railway-reminiscent of Imperial investment fever a hundred years ago-to countless road construction projects across the region, Chinese state-supported enterprises are at the forefront of the present round of infrast…
The Rise and Fall of Cheap Chinese Goods in Ecuadorian Popular Markets
En contraste con sus vecinos Colombia y Perú, Ecuador ha utilizado los aranceles para regular el flujo de bienes importados de China. En esta investigación, estoy enfocada en la ropa china y las prácticas de negocio y aspiraciones económicas de dos comunidades de comerciantes paralela-uno quichua, el otro chino. Algunos operadores de fábricas textiles nacional se han beneficiado claramente de los aranceles. Sin embargo, desde la crisis fiscal "do…
Risk‐Seeking Peasants, Excessive Artisans
Thomas Friedman (referencing Harvard economist Lawrence Katz) declared that the economic future for the United States meant that “everyone today has to be an artisan” ( The New York Times , October 23, 2010). But what does it mean to be an artisan in a globalized world? This article suggests that artisan economies may involve high levels of risk and excess, frustrating the search for economic justice and more equitable opportunities. Fieldwork wi…
The Making of Culture, People, and Politics in Indigenous Ecuador
Work, Cultural Resources, and Community Commodities in the Global Economy
In order to defend work and livelihoods, many communities claim special cultural value for their trades, products, or crops. In this special issue, we examine what makes a trade or a particular commodity a cultural asset, drawing on the details of four distinct cases:Russian salmon,Peruvian ceramics,Indonesian textiles, andBolivian quinoa. Our analysis focuses on two crucial features: (1) a product's embeddedness in subsistence routines, ritual, …

Don't be lazy, don't lie, don't steal
Two processes have reshaped many Latin American indigenous societies: the rise of native movements and the transnationalization of rural economies. Although the connections between these two processes remain sharply debated, both critics and defenders of indigenous movements assume that ethnic unity and economic differentiation must work against each other. I argue otherwise, demonstrating that the territorial consequences of economic change'due …
An Ethnography of Neoliberalism
Both a method and a goal of neoliberal policy, competitiveness structures ever more economic practices while consolidating cultural and community commitments. Current anthropological models treat competition narrowly as a reflection of economic inputscapital, innovation, and talent. In contrast, I show that, first, competing successfully is predicated less and less on economic factors and increasingly on expressiveness and communication. Second, …
Dirty Indians', Radical Indígenas, and the Political Economy of Social Difference in Modern Ecuador1
This article examines alternative conceptions of social difference in Otavalo, Ecuador. On the one hand, in the northern Andes, the language of ethnicity has become a potent force, connected to an indigenous political movement and the profits of handicraft dealing. On the other, 'race' and an 'hygienic racism' preoccupied with pernicious stereotypes about 'dirty Indians' continue to define the social and political landscape. Contrasting these not…
