    Kinship, Adoption, and Morality in Andean Peru

    par Jessaca B. Leinaweaver, Walter D. Mignolo, Irene Silverblatt, Sonia Saldívar-Hull ...
    Collections series Latin America Otherwise
    In this vivid ethnography, Jessaca B. Leinaweaver explores “child circulation,” informal arrangements in which indigenous Andean children are sent by their parents to live in other households.

Sin embargo, las fuerzas que provocan que los migrantes ... En savoir plus

    The Andean Community through the Eyes of Children

    par Jeanine Anderson, Jessaca B. Leinaweaver ...
    Collections series Rutgers Series in Childhood Studies
    Andean communities occupy a special place in the history of anthropology, having given shape to fundamental theories of kinship, peasant economics, Indigenous medical systems, ritual life and others. Yet children have been shortchanged in research and theory building. Care and Agency, based on detailed ethnographies of six towns in the province of Yauyos, restores children to a central research ... En savoir plus

    Sex and Tourism in Cuba and the Dominican Republic

    par Amalia L. Cabezas ...

What if the tourist continues to send gifts or money to the tour guide after returning home? As this original and provocative book demonstrates, when it comes to sex—and the effects of capitalism and globalization—nothing is as simple as it might seem.Based on ten years of ...

    In Reclaiming the Discarded Kathleen M. Millar offers an evocative ethnography of Jardim Gramacho, a sprawling garbage dump on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro, where roughly two thousand self-employed workers known as catadores collect recyclable materials.

  • Growing Up in a Culture of Respect

    Child Rearing in Highland Peru

    par Inge Bolin ...
    Far from the mainstream of society, the pastoral community of Chillihuani in the high Peruvian Andes rears children who are well-adjusted, creative, and curious. They exhibit superior social and cognitive skills and maintain an attitude of respect for all life as they progress smoothly from childhood to adulthood without a troubled adolescence. What makes such child-rearing success even more ... En savoir plus
