Urban Mountain Beings: History, Indigeneity, and Geographies of Time in Quito, Ecuador

Kathleen S. Fine-Dare

4.9/5 (9410 ratings)

Description:Urban Mountain Beings is an ethnographic and historically-grounded study of recognition strategies and ethnogenesis in post-neoliberal times carried out on the flanks of Mt. Pichincha in Quito, Ecuador. Kathleen S. Fine-Dare demonstrates through the application of feminist geographical and Indigenous pedagogical frameworks that it is not urban geography per se, but rather histories of exclusion that have created attitudes and policies treating Native peoples as "out of place" in cities. Fine-Dare concentrates on two overlapping contexts for Indigenous vindication: the Yumbada of Cotocollao, an ancestral performance through which mountain and other spirits are called into the urban plaza by danzantes or dancers of diverse backgrounds, and the Hummingbird Corporation, a legal entity that engages in re-vindication activities like workshops, filmmaking, photography, classroom and community teaching plans, and the formation of alliances with local and international anthropologists, activists, filmmakers, engineers, and educators. This book is recommended for students and scholars of anthropology, Latin American studies, race and ethnic studies, gender and women's studies, and environmental studies.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
