En el 2004, marcado por las secuelas físicas de un grave accidente de salud pero mentalmente alerta, realizó su más caro sueño desde hacía varios años: regresar al Perú, que iba a ser su último gran viaje. En 1957, el joven de 26 años que no hablaba castellano, aterrizó en Lima por vez primera, luego de un largo sobrevuelo sobre América del Sur con un magnífico clima, atravesando la Amazonía y los Andes —de los que se enamoró inmediatamente— hasta el desierto costero del Pacífico.

  • Conocimiento Local Cultivo De La Papa
    Publicación realizada en conmemoración al Año Internacional de la Papa - 2008 Freddy Canqui Eddy Morales Instituciones Financiadoras Conocimiento Local Instituciones Responsables en el Cultivo de la Papa Presentación El cultivo de la papa es una actividad milenaria que ha sido, es y seguirá siendo, parte fundamental de la vida de las comunidades andinas. Haciendo un recorrido por la región del Altiplano Norte, el libro de Freddy Canqui y Eddy Morales se acerca a la cadena productiva de la papa a través de la vivencia cotidiana de 10 familias productoras de este milenario tubérculo. Es importante reconocer que el cultivo de la papa está íntimamente sujeto a la cosmovisión andina y a lo sagrado, haciendo parte relevante la relación del ser humano con su tierra y su comunidad. El libro revela el conocimiento local que mujeres y hombres del Altiplano Norte fueron construyendo año tras año, siendo éste transmitido de generación en generación. “Conocimiento Local en el Cultivo de la Papa” es un libro de gran aporte al presentar panoramas de la vida de productores, mostrando la estructura, roles y funciones de los miembros de las familias alrededor del cultivo de la papa. El libro visibiliza la gran importancia de los saberes locales y del apoyo de instituciones ligadas al desarrollo para el progreso de sus comunidades, ello a través de la implementación de tecnologías que mejoran los sistemas de producción en torno al cultivo de la papa. Por todo lo descrito, la Embajada Real de Dinamarca (DANIDA) y la Agencia Suiza para el Desarrollo y la Cooperación (COSUDE) se sienten complacidos por contribuir a tan interesante documento.

Assembling States: Community Formation And The meE rgence Of The Inca Empire Abstract This dissertation investigates the processes through which the Inca state emerged in the south-central Andes, ca. 1400 CE in Cusco, Peru, an area that was to become the political center of the largest indigenous empire in the Western hemisphere. Many approaches to this topic over the past several decades have framed state formation in a social evolutionary framework, a perspective that has come under increasing critique in recent years. I argue that theoretical attempts to overcome these problems have been ultimately confounded, and in order to resolve these contradictions, an ontological shift is needed. I adopt a relational perspective towards approaching the emergence of the Inca state – in particular, that of assemblage theory. Treating states and other complex social entities as assemblages means understanding them as open-ended and historically individuated phenomena, emerging from centuries or millennia of sociopolitical, cultural, and material engagements with the human and non-human world, and constituted over the longue durée.

Parasites Vectors (2020) 13:171 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-020-04045-x Parasites & Vectors RESEARCH Open Access Genetic uniformity, geographical spread and anthropogenic habitat modifcations of lymnaeid vectors found in a One Health initiative in the highest human fascioliasis hyperendemic of the Bolivian Altiplano M. Dolores Bargues1*, Patricio Artigas1, Rene Angles2, David Osca1, Pamela Duran1, Paola Buchon3, R. Karina Gonzales‑Pomar3, Julio Pinto‑Mendieta3 and Santiago Mas‑Coma1 Abstract Background: Fascioliasis is a snail‑borne zoonotic trematodiasis emerging due to climate changes, anthropogenic environment modifcations, and livestock movements. Many areas where Fasciola hepatica is endemic in humans have been described in Latin America altitude areas. Highest prevalences and intensities were reported from four provinces of the northern Bolivian Altiplano, where preventive chemotherapy is ongoing. New strategies are now incorporated to decrease infection/re‑infection risk, assessment of human infection sources to enable efcient prevention measures, and additionally a One Health initiative in a selected zone. Subsequent extension of these pilot interventions to the remaining Altiplano is key. Methods: To verify reproducibility throughout, 133 specimens from 25 lymnaeid populations representative of the whole Altiplano, and 11 used for population dynamics studies, were analyzed by rDNA ITS2 and ITS1 and mtDNA cox1 and 16S sequencing to assess their classifcation, variability and geographical spread. Results: Lymnaeid populations proved to belong to a monomorphic group, Galba truncatula. Only a single cox1 mutation was found in a local population. Two cox1 haplotypes were new. Comparisons of transmission foci data from the 1990’s with those of 2018 demonstrated an endemic area expansion.

  • 265 Lengua X
    LENGUA X: AN ANDEAN PUZZLE 1 MATTHIAS PACHE LEIDEN UNIVERSITY In the south-central Andes, several researchers have documented series of numerical terms that some have attributed to a hitherto unknown language: Lengua X. Indeed, they are difficult to link, as a whole, with numerical series from the known languages of the area. This paper discusses the available information on these series and attempts to trace their origin. It is difficult to argue that they are the remnants of a single, vanished language. Instead, it is argued that Lengua X numbers for ‘one’ and ‘two’ originate in Aymara, a language from the highlands, whereas terms for ‘three’ to ‘five’ originate in Mosetén, a language from the eastern foothills. Additional parallels with Uru-Chipayan, Quechua, and Aymara (terms from ‘six’ to ‘ten’) suggest that Lengua X numbers reflect a unique and complex situation of language contact in the south-central Andes. [KEYWORDS: Lengua X, Aymara, Mosetén, Uru-Chipayan, numbers, language contact] 1. Introduction. Since the colonial period, four indigenous language groups have been associated with the south-central Andes: Quechua, Ay- mara, Uru-Chipayan, and Puquina (e.g., Bouysse-Cassagne 1975; Adelaar 2004). Since the late nineteenth century, however, several researchers (e.g., Posnansky 1938; Vellard 1967) have come across words in the Bolivian highlands for numbers that seem to belong to a different language: Lengua X, as it was called by Ibarra Grasso (1982:15, 97). This paper presents and discusses Lengua X numerical terms, addressing the question of their origin. Table 1 illustrates the first four numbers of Lengua X, together with their counterparts in Aymara, Chipaya (Uru-Chipayan), Bolivian Quechua, and Puquina.

  • Community Management of Wild Vicuña in Bolivia As a Relevant Case to Explore Community- Based Conservation Under Common Property Regimes, As Explained in Chapter 1
    Community-based Conservation and Vicuña Management in the Bolivian Highlands by Nadine Renaudeau d’Arc Thesis submitted to the University of East Anglia for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2005 © This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the thesis, nor any information derived therefrom, may be published without the author’s prior, written consent. Abstract Abstract Current theory suggests that common property regimes, predicated on the community concept, are effective institutions for wildlife management. This thesis uses community-based conservation of vicuña in the Bolivian highlands as a case study to re-examine this theory. Vicuña is a wild South American camelid living in the high Andes. Its fibre is highly valued in international markets, and trade of vicuña fibre is controlled and regulated by an international policy framework. Different vicuña management systems have been developed to obtain fibre from live- shorn designated vicuña populations. This thesis analyses whether the Bolivian case study meets three key criteria for effective common property resource management: appropriate partnerships across scale exist; supportive local-level collective action institutions can be identified; and deriving meaningful benefits from conservation is possible. This thesis adopts a qualitative approach for the collection and analysis of empirical data. Data was collected from 2001 to 2003 at different levels of governance in Bolivia, using a combination of ethnographic techniques, and methods of triangulation. Community-level research was undertaken in Mauri-Desaguadero and Lipez-Chichas fieldwork sites.
