The production of wool and other specialty of fi bers is concentrated in the Southern Cone of the sub-continent (Argentina, Uruguay, Chile and south of Brazil), where climate is temperate or deserted. Further north, with the exception of the Altiplano region, (the highlands of the Andes mountains), the production of these animal fi bers is not possible due to the tropical climatic conditions. * Delta Consultants, Director ** National Institute for Agriculture Technology, INTA 44 Proceedings of the Symposium on Natural Fibres Map 2 – South America: sheep producing areas THE PRODUCTION OF WOOL The main areas in South America producing wool are shown in Map 2.

Migratory Bird Management, US Fish and Wildlife Service, Anchorage, AK 99503, USA Received 19 April 2013; accepted 17 June 2013 SUMMARY DUFFY, D.C., MCKNIGHT, A. & IRONS, D.B. 2013. Trans-Andean passage of migrating Arctic Terns over Patagonia. Marine Ornithology 41: 155–159. We assessed migration routes of Arctic Terns Sterna paradisaea breeding in Prince William Sound, Alaska, by deploying geolocator tags on 20 individuals in June 2007, recovering six upon their return in 2008 and 2009. The terns migrated south along the North and South American coastlines. As they neared the southern end of the Humboldt Current upwelling off Chile, they stopped their over-water migration and turned eastward, crossing the Andes to reach rich foraging areas in the South Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Argentina. Challenging sea and weather conditions, rather than paucity of food, likely deterred further movement south along the Chilean coast. Key words: Alaska, Arctic Tern, Andes, Argentina, Chile, geolocation, Humboldt Current, migration, Patagonia, Sterna paradisaea INTRODUCTION the tags’ view of the horizon and displaced positions calculated during the crossing, we defined the crossing distance as the distance Arctic Terns Sterna paradisaea have the longest known migration between the last Pacific point and the first Atlantic point, ignoring of any bird species, from the Arctic to the Antarctic, covering up intermediate points occurring on land.

  • 1 from Africa to Patagonia: Voices of Displacement Abstract How Does
    From Africa to Patagonia: Voices of Displacement Abstract How does the age of the great European empires continue to shape the experiences of exile and cultural displacement in a postcolonial, globalized world? What can the evolution of language tell us about people’s experience of exile and cultural displacement? This project analyzes how language is entangled with cultural identity in a community that traces its roots to South African Boers displaced to Patagonia, Argentina after the second Anglo-Boer War in 1902. The Afrikaans spoken in this community encodes the vestiges of empires and modern nation- building, and reflects the effects of change in the contemporary world. Through an approach that integrates linguistics, historiography, and anthropology, we will study the ways in which this community’s language practices reveal both a commitment to preserving an identity distinct from their location in Argentina and an integration that reflects the reality of historical and geographical change. Furthermore, this dynamic between preservation and integration reflects cutting-edge theories about the emergent nature of language with respect to the diverse contexts of human society. This collaborative project will generate the following outcomes: three public essays; three scholarly articles; one essay on conducting collaborative fieldwork in the humanities; and the Digital Transatlantic Boer Archive, which will contain images and audio from our fieldwork experiences, digitized images gathered from Yale University’s Beinecke Library, and

Copies of working papers are available from the author. Alternative Paths of Green Entrepreneurship: The Environmental Legacies of the North Face’s Doug Tompkins and Patagonia’s Yvon Chouinard Geoffrey Jones and Ben Gettinger Abstract This working paper examines the impact of two entrepreneurs who offered alternative paths to reach their shared goal of a more sustainable world. Yvon Chouinard and Doug Tompkins were respective founders of the prominent outdoor apparel brands Patagonia and The North Face. Chouinard pursued incremental sustainability strategies over decades at his firm. Tompkins, who went on to manage the fashion company Esprit, opted in 1989 to exit business entirely having concluded that capitalism could never be sufficiently sustainable to reverse environmental degradation. He purchased 1.5 million hectares of land in Chile and Argentina which he converted to protected areas and national parks. The Chouinard strategy represented best practice green entrepreneurship which if widely adopted might markedly reduce the environmental impact of business, but its full execution appeared possible only because Patagonia was a private company.

  • Coloniality and Anglican Missions in Argentine Patagonia in the Nineteenth Century
    humanities Article Lux et Tenebris? Coloniality and Anglican Missions in Argentine Patagonia in the Nineteenth Century Hugo Córdova Quero Department of Theology, Starr King School for the Ministry, Oakland, CA 94623, USA; [email protected] Abstract: Within the modern capitalist World-System, Missionary work was mostly developed through the connubiality with colonial powers. The missionary work of the Anglican Church is no exception. This article centers on the missionary enterprise carried out in Argentine Patagonia in the nineteenth century. Missionaries’ reports carefully narrated that venture. However, the language and the notions underlying the missionary work’s narration reveal the dominion of colonial ideologies that imbued how religious agents constructed alterity. Connecting the missionaries’ worldview with the political context and expansion of the British Empire allows us to unfold the complex intersections of religious, ethnic, racial, and geopolitical discourses that traverse the lives of indigenous peoples in South America. Keywords: Anglican missions; Argentine Patagonia; British Empire; Missionary reports 1. Introduction “Thus, we lived from week to week, seeking according to the grace given to us to be useful in opening the eyes of these poor people to see and follow the light of God’s truth, and to love and serve their God and Saviour”.
