Fray Bernardino de Sahagun-INAH Award in Mexico for Best Research
Work in Anthropology Gabriela Zamorano Villarreal examines the
political dimension of indigenous media production and distribution
as a means by which indigenous organizations articulate new claims
on national politics in Bolivia, a country experiencing one of the
most notable cases of social mobilization and indigenous-based
constitutional transformation in contemporary Latin America. Based
on fieldwork in Bolivia from 2005 to 2007, Zamorano Villarreal
details how grassroots indigenous media production has been
instrumental to indigenous political demands for a Constituent
Assembly and for implementing the new constitution within Evo
Morales's controversial administration. On a day-to-day basis,
Zamorano Villarreal witnessed the myriad processes by which
Bolivia's indigenous peoples craft images of political struggle and
enfranchisement to produce films about their role in Bolivian
society. Indigenous Media and Political Imaginaries in Contemporary
Bolivia contributes a wholly new and original perspective on
indigenous media worlds in Bolivia: the collaborative and
decolonizing authorship of indigenous media against the neoliberal
multicultural state, and its key role in reimagining national
politics. Zamorano Villarreal unravels the negotiations among
indigenous media makers about how to fairly depict a gender,
territorial, or justice conflict in their films to promote
grassroots understanding of indigenous peoples in Bolivia's
multicultural society.
