  • Miniaturas Y Cosmovisión En El Mundo Andino: Forma, Función Y Agencia
    MINIATURAS Y COSMOVISIÓN EN EL MUNDO ANDINO: FORMA, FUNCIÓN Y AGENCIA Carina Circosta Universidad de Buenos Aires Facultad de Filosofía y Letras [email protected] Palabras clave: Alasitas – Ekeko – miniaturas – agente mediador Presentación: las miniaturas en la fiesta - feria de Alasita, el ritual al Ekeko Las imágenes en miniatura se han registrado desde tiempos prehispánicos en la zona andina y en el Noroeste argentino, y son numerosas las evidencias que dan cuenta de la presencia de estos objetos en contexto ritual: fuentes coloniales, registros arqueológicos y relatos etnográficos nos hablan del “uso” de estos objetos en ceremonias domésticas, funerarias o chamánicas. No obstante, no hay sido estudiadas de manera sistemática por la historia del arte ni por la antropología. Esta presentación es parte del proyecto doctoral en el que estudio el uso y agencia de las miniaturas en la Feria de Alasitas, una fiesta del altiplano boliviano que hace más de una década se celebra también en la Ciudad de Buenos Aires. La celebración de Alasitas o Fiesta del Ekeko que se realiza cada 24 de Enero es una de las prácticas culturales que se pusieron en escena en la ciudad de Buenos Aires tras la llegada de inmigrantes bolivianos identificados con las culturas quechua y aymara. El ritual al Ekeko, dios de la abundancia, se realiza desde tiempos ancestrales en la zona del altiplano andino, en la actualidad tiene su epicentro en la ciudad de La Paz y en su versión local se organiza en varios espacios de la CABA1. En esta investigación me refiero a la realizada en la wak´a del Parque Avellaneda, por tratarse de un espacio ritual y legitimador de los pueblos originarios en el ámbito urbano.

  • Staging Lo Andino: the Scissors Dance, Spectacle, and Indigenous Citizenship in the New Peru
    Staging lo Andino: the Scissors Dance, Spectacle, and Indigenous Citizenship in the New Peru DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jason Alton Bush, MA Graduate Program in Theatre The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Lesley Ferris, Co-Advisor Katherine Borland, Co-Advisor Ana Puga Copyright by Jason Bush 2011 Abstract “Staging Lo Andino: Danza de las Tijeras, Spectacle, and Indigenous Citizenship in the New Peru,” draws on more than sixteen months of fieldwork in Peru, financed by Ohio State‟s competitive Presidential Fellowship for dissertation research and writing. I investigate a historical ethnography of the Peruvian scissors dance, an acrobatic indigenous ritual dance historically associated with the stigma of indigeneity, poverty, and devil worship. After the interventions of Peruvian public intellectual José María Arguedas (1911-1969), the scissors dance became an emblem of indigenous Andean identity and valued as cultural patrimony of the nation. Once repudiated by dominant elites because it embodied the survival of indigenous spiritual practices, the scissors dance is now a celebrated emblem of Peru‟s cultural diversity and the perseverance of Andean traditions in the modern world. I examine the complex processes whereby anthropologists, cultural entrepreneurs, cosmopolitan artists, and indigenous performers themselves have staged the scissors dance as a symbolic resource in the construction of the emergent imaginary of a “New Peru.” I use the term “New Peru” to designate a flexible repertoire of utopian images and discourses designed to imagine the belated overcoming of colonial structures of power and the formation of a modern nation with foundations in the Pre-Columbian past.

  • La Figura Del Pishtaco Andino Como
    Estudios Latinoamericanos 39 (2019) 131–141 https://doi.org/10.36447/Estudios2019.v39.art8 La fi gura del pishtaco andino como expresión simbólica de trauma social, aculturación y confl icto (ss. XVI-XXI) Mirosław Mąka , Elżbieta Jodłowska Resumen El pishtaco andino es una de las fi guras más intrigantes y difíciles de defi nir dentro del imaginario po- pular. No cabe en ninguna de las categorías de seres sobrenaturales presentes en el universo de las creen- cias de los pueblos andinos. Crea su categoría propia, autónoma, que genéticamente radica tanto en la realidad histórica de las primeras décadas de la conquista, como en la mitología autóctona. Constituye una conceptualización y visualización de la trauma cultural muy profunda y fruto de su tratamiento sicológico que ha atribuido una cara y una fi gura a las amenazas existenciales nuevas. El temor ante lo desconocido implicaría un estado de desamparo y, en cambio, el temor ante un enemigo conocido permite elaborar una estrategia de defensa. En la mitología milenarista andina del periodo siguiente a la Conquista el pishtaco apareció como una fi gura simbólica personalizando al enemigo que va a desa- parecer solo cuando se reaviva el imperio Inca idealizado. El pishtaco no viene dotado de una sola cara o un solo aspecto. En los últimos 500 años aparecía llevando vestido de convento, del hacendado cruel, de un soldado, de un médico o cualquiera otro a quien los campesinos hubiesen reconocido como „ajeno”. Las visualizaciones más antiguas que se han descrito ya en el siglo XVI siguen siendo vivas y le suceden, sobreponiéndose a ellas, las visualizaciones siguientes, creadas más tarde.

  • Indigenous Subjectivities, Inequalities and Kinship Under the Peruvian Family Planning Programme
    Planning Quechua Families: Indigenous Subjectivities, Inequalities and Kinship under the Peruvian Family Planning Programme Rebecca Irons University College London PhD Anthropology 2020 1 I, Rebecca Irons, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 ABSTRACT Quechua people have a fraught history with the Peruvian national family planning (FP) programme, with an estimated 300,000 individuals (forcibly) sterilised during the 1990s Fujimori-government in a biopolitical act that saw indigenous people as less ‘desirable’ and therefore sought to restrict reproduction in this group (Ewig, 2010). The state is now targeting the ‘rural, poor’ (often synonymous with ‘indigenous’) specifically for family planning intervention once more, based on perceived unmet need in this population. Now, for the first time in history, the 2017 national census included a question about identification of indigeneity, further suggesting heightened governmental interest in the demographics of this group. State intervention in Quechua reproductive health is not limited to FP. In 2005 an ‘intercultural birth’ policy was introduced that sought to bring women away from communities and into hospitals through the implementation of ‘Quechua cultural elements’ of birth amongst the biomedical settings. However, it has been argued that this policy was a veiled attempt to alter the subjectivities of Quechua women through an enforced association with biomedicine, thereby ‘whitening’ them (Guerra-Reyes, 2014). Social whitening through biomedical- association is well documented in the Andes; for example, women may seek IVF treatment or caesarean scars as proof of their interaction with the ‘whiter’ biomedical environments (Roberts, 2012).
