  • Biodiversity and Conservation of Sierra Chinaja: a R Apid
    Biodiversity AND Conservation of Sierra ChinajA: A r apid ASSESSMENT OF BIOPHYSICAL, SOCIOECONOMIC, AND MANAGEMENT FACTORS IN ALTAVERAPAZ, GUATEMALA by Quran A. Bonham B.S. Cornell University, 2001 presented in partial fuifiiiment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science The University of Montana August 2006 Approved by: Chairperson Dean, Graduate School Date Bonham, Curan A. M.S., August 2006 Forestry Biodiversity and Conservation of Sierra Chinaja: A rapid assessment of biophysical, socioeconomic, and management factors in Alta Verapaz, Guatemala Chairperson: Stephen Siebert The Sierra Chinaja is a low lying range of karst mountains in the heart of one of the world’s biodiversity hotspots, the Mesoamerican Forests. In 1989 these mountains were declared an area of special protection according to article 4-89 of Guatemalan law. Nevertheless, there is little management implementation on the ground and significant encroachment on important habitat and settlement of public lands by landless campesino farmers. The first step required by Guatemalan law to move the Sierra Chinaja from an area of special protection to a functional protected area is the preparation of a “technical study”. The goal of this document is to provide initial characterization of the biophysical, ecological, and socioeconomic features. It also identifies threats and suggests potential management strategies for the conservation of the Sierra Chinaja. Data were collected using biophysical and socioeconomic rapid assessment techniques from May 2005-Jan. 2006. This study represents the first systematic effort to characterize the biodiversity of Sierra Chinaja. The number of plant and animal species recorded included: 128 birds, 24 reptiles, 15 amphibians, 25 bats, 20 dung beetles, 72 trees, 63 orchids, and 198 plants total.

  • Coffee and Civil War the Cash Crop That Built the Foundations for the Mass Slaughter of Mayans During the Guatemalan Civil War
    Coffee and Civil War The Cash Crop That Built the Foundations for the Mass Slaughter of Mayans during the Guatemalan Civil War By Mariana Calvo A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for honors Department of History, Duke University Under the advisement of Dr. Adriane Lentz-Smith April 19, 2017 Calvo 1 I can tell you these stories, telling it is the easy part, but living it was much harder. -Alejandro, 20151 1 Alejandro is one of the eight people whose testimony is featured in this thesis. Calvo 2 Abstract This thesis explores the connections between coffee production and genocide in Guatemala. This thesis centers its analysis in the 19th and 20th centuries when coffee was Guatemala’s main cash crop. Coffee became Guatemala’s main export after the Liberal Revolution of 1871. Prior to 1871, the ruling oligarchy in Guatemala had been of pure European descent, but the Liberal Revolution of 1871 gave power to the ladinos, people of mixed Mayan and European descent. With the rise of coffee as an export crop and with the rise of ladinos to power, indigenous Guatemalans from the western highlands were displaced from their lands and forced to labor on coffee plantations in the adjacent piedmont. Ladino elites used racism to justify the displacement and enslavement of the indigenous population, and these beliefs, along with the resentment created by the continued exploitation of indigenous land and labor culminated in the Guatemalan Civil War (1960-1996). This conflict resulted in the genocide of Maya communities. Historians have traced the war to the 1954 CIA backed coup that deposed democratically elected president, Jacobo Arbenz over fears that he was a Communist.

  • Market Town Strategy for Nebaj and the Greater Ixil Region Guatemala
    Market Town Strategy for Nebaj and the Greater Ixil Region Guatemala-CAP Income Generation Activities Project (AGIL) Cambridge, MA August 2000 Lexington, MA Hadley, MA Bethesda, MD Contract # Washington, DC 520-C-00-00-00035-00 Chicago, IL Cairo, Egypt Johannesburg, South Africa Prepared for United States Agency for International Development/ Guatemala 1A Calle 7-66 Zona 9 Guatemala 010009 Prepared by Mike Richards Abt Associates Inc. Suite 600 4800 Montgomery Lane Bethesda, MD 20814-5341 Market Town Strategy for Nebaj and the Greater Ixil Region Market Town Strategy for Nebaj and the Greater Ixil Region EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Ixil region historically has been isolated from the main economic and political spheres of Guatemala. In the pre-Hispanic era, the Ixil resisted incorporation by the politically stronger K’iche’. Throughout the Colonial Period, and even into the Republican Period, Ixil people successfully managed to resist intromission or control from state authority. As recent as the 1970s and 1980s, the Ixil also resisted being controlled by guerrilla insurgents and State authority; regrettably, this resistance cost many their lives and disrupted Ixil society for almost two decades. Today, the Ixil are recovering from a prolonged period of conflict, and the scars of war are still present. With regard to endowment of natural resources, the Karst geological formation throughout most of the area conditions low productivity in agriculture. The Ixil region is climactically diverse, with high mountain ranges that experience periodic frost to tropical lowland regions. What is common to all these ecosystems, however, is a great deal of precipitation and high humidity, and these factors are not propitious for producing high value export crops that brought about economic booms in other highland regions.

    Guatemala Human Rights Commission/USA El Quetzal Human Rights News and Updates Issue #13 GHRC December 2012 Remilitarization gives rise to new tensions and violence in Guatemala On October 6, the Guatemalan army gunned down six indigenous protestors in Totonicapán and injured at least 30 more. The soldiers had advanced on thousands protesting unpopular government reforms and shot into the crowd. PHOTO The event was a tragic manifestation of one of the public’s worst fears since President Pérez Molina took office in January 2012: that the Guatemalan armed forces would resort to deadly force in order to repress and silence dissent, an experience all too familiar in the nation´s collective historic memory. Pérez Molina has made no secret of his intention to deploy the armed forces in US Marines train with Guatemalan Special Forces. Photo: Cpl.
