Synopsis "The Lowland South America World (Routledge Worlds)"

The Lowland South American World showcases cutting-edge research on the anthropology of Lowland South America, providing both an in-depth knowledge of Lowland South American life ways and engaging readers in urgent social, environmental and political issues in the contemporary world.Covering the vast expanse of a region that includes all of South America except for the Andes, its forty chapters engage with questions of what 'Lowland South America' means as a geographical designation, both in studies of indigenous Amazonian peoples and other lowland areas of the continent. They emphasize the multiple ways that the practices and cosmologies challenge conventional Western ideas about nature, culture, personhood, sociality, community, and indigenous people.Some of the region's well-known contributions to anthropology, such as animism, perspectivism, and novel approaches to the body are updated here with new ethnography and in light of the varying political situations in which the region's peoples find themselves. With contributions by authors from fifteen different countries, including a number of Indigenous anthropologists and activists, this book will set the agenda for future research in the continent.The World of Lowland South America is a valuable resource for scholars and students of anthropology, Latin American studies and indigenous studies, as well history, geography and other social sciences.
