Drawing on fieldwork from diverse Amerindian societies whose lives
and worlds are undergoing processes of transformation, adaptation,
and deterioration, this volume offers new insights into the
indigenous constitutions of humanity, personhood, and environment
characteristic of the South American highlands and lowlands. The
resulting ethnographies - depicting non-human entities emerging in
ritual, oral tradition, cosmology, shamanism and music - explore
the conditions and effects of unequally ranked life forms,
increased extraction of resources, continuous migration to urban
centers, and the (usually) forced incorporation of current
expressions of modernity into indigenous societies.
