Paperback. Condición: New. 1st ed. 8vo, wrps, 523 p., index, notes, tables, maps. Esta obra es la traduccion de "Landscapes of power and identity: comparative histories in Sonoran desert and forests of Amazonia from colony to republic"(Duke University Press, Durham, 2005)"; y estudia los acontecimientos ocurridos en un periodo de aproximadamente cien años (1750 a 1850) en las fronteras coloniales del noroeste mexicano y del oriente boliviano. Reflexiona sobre el papel de la naturaleza, la tecnología y las expectativas culturales de los habitantes de Sonora y Chiquitos, en relación con los rasgos dominantes de la civilización europea. Describe las divisiones racial y social en las dos fronteras, la importancia del mestizaje, la transculturación y las diferentes dinámicas de las identidades étnicas, sin olvidar el ejercicio del poder ni los conflictos frontales y violentos que acaecieron en esas lindes. Los significados de la religiosidad y la memoria histórica de los habitantes de estos territorios son tratados con especial énfasis en estas páginas, así como las tensiones entre la sociedad criolla y las comunidades indígenas en los entonces próximos estados independientes de México y Bolivia. Radding desarrolla el tema de género -verdadera discriminación basada en connotaciones raciales y de sexo- con respecto a la organización del trabajo -talleres de carpintería, metalurgia, hilanderías y tejedurías-, a los usos y costumbres del culto religioso y, sobre todo, al ejercicio de la ciudadanía y a la participación política en estas zonas geográficas tan importantes en América Latina por su numerosa población indígena.…

Paperback. Condición: New. Common understandings drawn from biblical references, literature, and art portray deserts as barren places that are far from God and spiritual sustenance. In our own time, attention focuses on the rigors of climate change in arid lands and the perils of the desert in the northern Mexican borderlands for migrants seeking shelter and a new life.Bountiful Deserts foregrounds the knowledge of Indigenous peoples in the arid lands of northwestern Mexico, for whom the desert was anything but barren or empty. Instead, they nurtured and harvested the desert as a bountiful and sacred space. Drawing together historical texts and oral testimonies, archaeology, and natural history, author Cynthia Radding develops the relationships between people and plants and the ways that Indigenous people sustained their worlds before European contact through the changes set in motion by Spanish encounters, highlighting the long process of colonial conflicts and adaptations over more than two centuries. This work reveals the spiritual power of deserts by weaving together the cultural practices of historical peoples and contemporary living communities, centered especially on the Yaqui/Yoeme and Mayo/Yoreme. Radding uses the tools of history, anthropology, geography, and ecology to paint an expansive picture of Indigenous worlds before and during colonial encounters. She re-creates the Indigenous worlds in both their spiritual and material realms, bringing together the analytical dimension of scientific research and the wisdom of oral traditions in its exploration of different kinds of knowledge about the natural world.Published in Cooperation with the William P. Clements Center for Southwest Studies, Southern Methodist University.…

Paperback. Condición: New. Wandering Peoples is a chronicle of cultural resiliency, colonial relations, and trespassed frontiers in the borderlands of a changing Spanish empire. Focusing on the native subjects of Sonora in Northwestern Mexico, Cynthia Radding explores the social process of peasant class formation and the cultural persistence of Indian communities during the long transitional period between Spanish colonialism and Mexican national rule. Throughout this anthropological history, Radding presents multilayered meanings of culture, community, and ecology, and discusses both the colonial policies to which peasant communities were subjected and the responses they developed to adapt and resist them.Radding describes this colonial mission not merely as an instance of Iberian expansion but as a site of cultural and political confrontation. This alternative vision of colonialism emphasizes the economic links between mission communities and Spanish mercantilist policies, the biological consequences of the Spanish policy of forced congregación, and the cultural and ecological displacements set in motion by the practices of discipline and surveillance established by the religious orders. Addressing wider issues pertaining to ethnic identities and to ecological and cultural borders, Radding's analysis also underscores the parallel production of colonial and subaltern texts during the course of a 150-year struggle for power and survival.…
