INTRODUCTION Crop plants are our greatest heritage from prehistory (Harlan 1992; Diamond 2002). How, where, and when the domestication of crops plants occurred is slowly becoming revealed although not completely understood (Camp et al. 1957; Smartt and Simmonds 1995; Gepts 2003). In some cases, the genetic distance between wild and domestic plants is so great, maize and crucifers, for example, that their origins are obscure. The origins of the ancient grains (wheat, maize, rice, and sorghum) and pulses (sesame and lentil) domesticated in Neolithic times have been the subject of intense interest and the puzzle is being solved with the new evidence based on molecular biology (Gepts 2003).

  • Re-Animating Andean Worlds
    RE-ANIMATING ANDEAN WORLDS: KAMAYOQ, THE POLITICS OF ‘CULTURALLY APPROPRIATE’ KNOWLEDGE EXTENSION, AND ETHNODEVELOPMENT IN THE PERUVIAN ANDES by Julian Sebastian Yates B.A., University of Manchester, 2004 M.A., University of Victoria, 2009 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Geography) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) April 2015 © Julian Sebastian Yates 2015 ABSTRACT This dissertation positions the kamayoq of the Southern Peruvian Andes (Sierra Sur) within the context of globalized ethnodevelopment networks. Contemporary kamayoq are indigenous, community-based specialists who act as “transcultural bridges” within a “culturally appropriate” methodology of campesino-a-campesino (farmer-to-farmer) knowledge transfer. Building on the results of a follow-the-thing methodology (deployed across fourteen months of multi-sited ethnographic fieldwork), I use the case of the kamayoq to develop a critique of ethnodevelopment – a notion that encapsulates how development programmes put culture and cultural groups to work in order both to incorporate them within broader development trajectories, and to protect them from some of the negative effects of such participation. I draw on – and contribute to – relevant debates in political economy, political ecology, development studies, and Andean studies to make a series of empirical and theoretical contributions. I conduct a Polanyian historical analysis of how the kamayoq have supported economic integration across different modes of production and forms of governance (since the fifteenth century). I develop a contemporary analysis of how ethnodevelopment programmes construct the kamayoq as ‘ethnic experts’ and ethno-entrepreneurial subjects within a new rural economy of Peru, thereby transforming a dynamic form of Andean learning-by-doing (aprender hacer) – as embodied by the kamayoq – into a form of ‘ethnic expertise’ on display (saber hacer).

    A PUBLICATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO CELIAC DISEASE CENTER CURECELIACDISEASE.ORG AUG | 2018 AUG FOOD INTOLERANCE: AN OVERVIEW By Catherine Degeeter, MD* and Stefano Guandalini, MD** Food allergies are on the rise, for reasons that are not yet fully understood. However, there is also a tendency to over-estimate them, resulting in parents eliminating foods unnecessarily from their children’s diet. In children, adverse reactions CATHERINE DEGEETER, MD STEFANO GUANDALINI, MD to foods can occur by different mechanisms: Immune-mediated (IgE or not IgE-mediated); autoimmune (celiac disease) or non-immune conditions causing adverse food reactions include congenital or mediated. Diagnosis of food allergy must follow well defined criteria, acquired disorders of digestive-absorptive processes such as lactose avoiding the many “alternative” tests currently available to the intolerance, toxic or pharmacologic reactions, and autoimmune public. Non-celiac gluten sensitivity (better called Non-Celiac Wheat reactions such as celiac disease. Thus, the non-committal term Intolerance) has no biomarkers available and groups a number of “food intolerance” should be used to include all forms of adverse various possible reactions to wheat ingestion. It is a misnomer and reactions due to ingested foods until an adverse reaction is proven should be abandoned in favor of Non Celiac Wheat Intolerance, to be due to an immune mediated process. itself an entity still lacking biomarkers and still not convincingly described in children. AUTOIMMUNE FOOD INTOLERANCE: CELIAC DISEASE INTRODUCTION Celiac disease is the most common genetically induced food Adverse reactions to foods are increasing and are often attributed to intolerance and is an autoimmune disorder affecting 1% of the allergy.
