{"product_id":"huarochiri-karen-spalding-9780804711234","title":"Huarochiri: An Andean Society Under Inca and Spanish Rule","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is the first attempt at synthesis of the varied data--ethnographic, historical, archaeological, and archival--on the impact of the Spanish conquest and Spanish rule on Indian society in Peru. Although the Huarochirí region is a source of most of the case histories and illustrative material, this is not a narrow regional study but a major work illuminating one of the two centers, along with Mexico, of settled Indian civilization and Spanish occupation in America.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe author delineates the basic relationships upon which local Andean society was based, notably the kinship relations that, under the Incas, made possible the production of great surpluses and their efficient distribution in a region where markets were totally unknown. She then traces the impact of the Spanish colonial system upon Andean society, examining how the Indians responded to or resisted the political structures imposed upon them, and how they dealt with, were exploited by, or benefited from the Europeans who occupied their land and made it their own.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is the story of a social relationship--a relationship of inequality and oppression--that endured for centuries of Spanish rule, and inevitably led to the collapse of Andean society.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Karen Spalding\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0804711232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804711234\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/1984\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 376\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Karen Spalding","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065140031743,"sku":"9780804711234","price":140.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e2537e4e-a47b-4900-866e-4506651ac93e.jpg?v=1768673260","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/huarochiri-karen-spalding-9780804711234","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
