Urban Imaginaries in Native Amazonia

Tales of Alterity, Power, and Defiance

Herausgeber: Santos-Granero, Fernando; Fabiano, Emanuele

Beschreibung

Featuring analysis from historical, ethnological, and philosophical perspectives, this volume dissects Indigenous Amazonians' beliefs about urban imaginaries and their ties to power, alterity, domination, and defiance. Contributors analyze how ambiguous urban imaginaries express a singular view of cosmopolitical relations, how they inform and shape forest-city interactions, and the history of how they came into existence, as well as their influence in present-day migration and urbanization.
