In 1991, they formed a political organization as a direct response to the growing threat to Huaorani territory posed by oil exploitation, colonization, and other pressures. The author explores the structures and practices of the organization, as well as the contradictions created by the imposition of an alien and hierarchical organizational form on a traditionally egalitarian society. This study has broad implications for those who work toward \"cultural survival\" or try to \"save the rainforest.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lawrence Ziegler-Otero\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1571814485\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781571814487\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berghahn Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 188\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Library Binding\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2005 pg. 1651","brand":"Lawrence Ziegler-Otero","offers":[{"title":"Library Binding","offer_id":48136814002431,"sku":"9781571814487","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9bf3f385-d886-4a99-ac3f-b13000130e1f.jpg?v=1770164696","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/resistance-in-an-amazonian-community-lawrence-ziegler-otero-9781571814487","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
