Ciudades de los Andes

About this book

"Anthropologists, historians, and sociologists contribute to this magnificent volume that records the geographic, temporal, and ethnic diversity of Andean cities, focusing on Bolivia, Ecuador, and Peru. Organized into sections on colonial, republican, and modern cities, this comparative study successfully indicates which elements of Andean culture have persisted and which have not. This volume presents new ways of understanding how Andean modernity was forged within an interethnic context"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
