    La región andina: ¿desarrollo sostenible con desigualdad?
    (Freie Universität Berlin, 2021-02-11)
    Se ha vuelto común pensar en América Latina cuando se habla sobre desigualdad.Brechas de acceso a servicios públicos, concentración de capital, distribución asimétrica de riesgos y costos ambientales o exclusión de grupos humanos debido a su origen étnico o su identidad de género son temas recurrentes en las discusiones sobre desarrollo y democracia en la región.Si bien en la primera década del siglo XXI se experimentó una contracción progresiva de las asimetrías de ingresos (CEPAL, 2013), esto solo abarca un aspecto limitado de la desigualdad y al final de la segunda década del presente siglo, América Latina sigue manteniéndose como la región más desigual del mundo (CEPAL, 2018).Esto es particularmente llamativo en la Región Andina, un espacio con procesos económicos, políticos, sociales y ecológicos específicos dentro de Latinoamérica, pero vinculados a procesos globales.Esta región experimentó un boom económico sin precedentes en la primera década del siglo XXI y posee algunas de las economías más importantes de América Latina como Argentina, Colombia y Chile (World Bank, 2018), pese a lo cual mantiene graves

    We have survived it all! Care and collaborative work in the Kukama Kukamiria peoples of the Peruvian Amazon to fight COVID-19
    (Universidade Federal de Goias, 2021-05-01)
    Este es un artículo sobre cómo pueblos indígenas de las tierras bajas del Río Marañón, en la Amazonía peruana, han respondido a la actual pandemia de COVID-19. El análisis se sitúa en los márgenes del Estado y en medios contaminados por el petróleo, donde las comunidades Kukama Kukamiria han desarrollado acciones de cuidado como actos políticos de supervivencia. Se trata de formas de trabajo colaborativo no asalariado que no son reconocidas en un sistema capitalista, pero que se configuran en acciones políticas de sobrevivencia frente a este. El artículo describe estos cuidados en el marco de una larga relación de no reconocimiento y explotación del Estado hacia los pueblos indígenas amazónicos. También analizamos cómo el cuidado presenta desafíos metodológicos, políticos, y éticos que requieren ser considerados en la etnografía remota, a distancia, y virtual, y que nos sugieren una propuesta de trabajo colaborativo.

    Podcasting collaborations and ontological relationships of being ‘here’ and ‘there’ in the Lower Marañón River in Peru
    (2021-11-12)
    This article is about podcasts and mobile phones not only as “daily technologies of life” but also as ways to convey personal stories and to do ethnographic research. However, we do not romanticize the use of digital technology for anthropological research. We use podcasts as a form to write our ethnographic work with our collaborators, and also as a way to keep in contact with our collaborators while in a global pandemic. For podcasts, we had to do several interviews and later edited them as both dialogues and individual stories. Interviews were mostly done by other digital devices such as WhatsApp, Facebook messenger, and telephone calls. The stories in our podcast series are mostly about an Amazonian indigenous community struggling to survive the global pandemic after several oil spills and other epidemics. Podcasts create a sort of intimacy and co-presence stimulating a multimodal, sensorial experience. However, power relations do not disappear, nor did they become invisible. Rather, power relations are accommodated in the new audio/digital scenario.

    Measuring incommensurability: compensations in judicial processes of oil spills in Northern Peruvian Amazon
    (Routledge, 2022-01-01)
    The increasing number of claims filed by Indigenous peoples against pollution caused by extractive industries makes the challenge of factualizing and measuring the damage caused in their territories necessary. In Peru, the Kukama Kukamiria people are among the most affected by the various spills from the North Peruvian Pipeline since its construction, one of the most well-known occurred in the lower Marañón River in 2014. This paper is about the efforts and limitations involved in aligning the Kukama Kukamiria’s experiences with the criteria and frameworks for measuring damage and compensation amid the toxic environment and the complicated time and space of late capitalism. Based on ethnographic research and considering the judicial processes, the analysis found that compensation became a tool of dispute in which incommensurable Indigenous worlds emerged to claim for their incommensurability to exist. But in the Peruvian neoliberal and extractive context, compensation also became a technique for governing Indigenous lives and natures in a way that excludes those worlds.

    Women of influence: Interdisciplinary participatory approaches to understanding female leadership in the Peruvian Amazon
    (New Area Studies, 2024-08-03)
    The Mujeres que influyen (Women of Influence) project is a collaboration between researchers at University of East Anglia and PUCP, and young women from the Junín area of Peru who are members of the National Council of Indigenous Women of Peru. It takes its starting point from an acknowledgement that although women play a fundamental role in the preservation of biodiversity and ancestral knowledge, these contributions often go unrecognized and underdeveloped (Ketty Marcelo, 2018), to the detriment of the very culture and environment that should be preserved. Our women-led participatory project, uses film (production, screening, analysis) to highlight the potential and importance for active and organised participation by these young women in their communities in order to protect and nurture their natural resources. Working alongside Asháninka and Yanesha young women, we seek to demonstrate the value of young female involvement in community decision-making, addressing the cultural and societal inequalities that may disrupt their path to leadership and influence. In this paper, we focus on the methods developed in the project, particularly the value of participatory video production as a form of activism, with the outputs serving as creative manifestos in themselves. The co-designed activities have led us to reframe fieldwork as auto-ethnographic digital collaborations that have sought to disrupt power hierarchies and facilitate the co-production of new knowledge. We reflect on how our Indigenous partners have helped us rethink issues of sustainability, resilience and alternative strategies to respond to gender dynamics, political ecologies and environmental challenges.
