In this highly readable ethnography, William Mitchell draws on the narratives of people he has known for forty years, offering deep insight into how they have coped with extreme poverty and rapid population growth?and their creation of new lives and customs in the process. In their own passionate words they describe their struggles to make ends meet, many abandoning rural homes for marginal wages in Lima and the United States. They chronicle their terror during the Shining Path guerrilla war and the government's violent military response. Mitchell's long experience as an anthropologist living with the people he writes about allows him to put the stories in context, helping readers understand the impact of the larger world on individuals and their communities. His book reckons up the human costs of the global economy, urging us to work toward a more just world. 606 $aIndians of South America$zPeru$xEconomic conditions 606 $aIndians of South America$zPeru$xSocial conditions 606 $aIndians of South America$zPeru$xGovernment relations 606 $aPoverty$zPeru 606 $aPeasants$zPeru 607 $aPeru$xPolitics and government$y1980- 607 $aPeru$xSocial conditions 607 $aPeru$xEconomic conditions 615 0$aIndians of South America$xEconomic conditions. 615 0$aIndians of South America$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aIndians of South America$xGovernment relations. 615 0$aPoverty 615 0$aPeasants 676 $a305.898/085 700 $aMitchell$b William P.$f1937-$01562691 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777519403321 996 $aVoices from the global margin$93830505 997 $aUNINA
