Representing a wide range of contemporary anthropological scholarship that has not been available in English until now, \u003ci\u003eReimagining the Gran Chaco\u003c\/i\u003e illuminates how the region's many Indigenous groups are negotiating these transformations in their own terms.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe essays in this volume explore how the region has become a complex arena of political, cultural, and economic contestation between actors that include the state, environmental groups and NGOs, and private businesses and how local actors are reconfiguring their subjectivities and political agency in response. With its multinational perspective, and its examination of major themes including missionization, millenarian movements, the Chaco war, industrial enclaves, extractivism, political mobilization, and the struggle for rights, this volume brings greater visibility to an underrepresented, complex region.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Silvia Hirsch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1683402111\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781683402114\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Florida Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/12\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 360\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.94d","brand":"Silvia Hirsch","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43944316109055,"sku":"9781683402114","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_72d5fb03-51f0-4376-a678-3bfb2f7a4fdf.jpg?v=1681502971","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/reimagining-the-gran-chaco-silvia-hirsch-9781683402114","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
