For decades, outside scholars viewed Latin America's indigenous peoples as relatively passive victims of conquest and development or as subsumed in the class category of campesino. Now, the indigenous have forced themselves to the forefront of our attention through such spectacular acts as the indigenous uprisings in Ecuador in the 1990s, the Zapatista insurgency in Chiapas, Mexico, beginning in 1994, and the rise to power of Evo Morales in Bolivia. The books reviewed here are a good sample of recent monographs in this area by anthropologists, historians, and political scientists.1 [End Page 233] These works build on what has become an enormous literature by both Latin American and outside scholars, by both political activists and academics, including both case studies and broad comparisons.2 The rise of indigenous movements received particular attention in countries with large indigenous populations—Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia—and of course in Chiapas after the emergence of the Zapatistas. Perhaps the best overviews are by the anthropologist Kay Warren and the political scientist Deborah Yashar.3 The emergence of indigenous social and political movements, and the resulting surge of academic interest in lo indígena, were accompanied by changes in the disciplines of the social sciences. Since the origins of sociology in the nineteenth century, the social sciences in general have been marked by the positivist ideal of scientific objectivity and the goal of a science of society as fully universal and verifiable as any of the natural sciences. From the beginning, voices dissenting from the mainstream agenda affirmed a more interpretive approach deeply rooted in particular times and places. In the past few decades, those dissenting voices have become stronger, and all of the works here reviewed exemplify, in greater or lesser degree, this antipositivist turn. The several disciplines at issue were in very different places when they entered the antipositivist turn, and this has shaped the very distinct features of antipositivism in anthropology, history, and political science. Anthropology has always focused principally on small communities, typically on the periphery of large-scale national societies, often ethnically distinct from the national society, and often comprising indigenous [End Page 234] inhabitants of lands that colonizers from elsewhere now occupy. The goal of classical ethnographic research was to learn about human society in general by studying these small-scale, culturally distinct societies. The method was holistic: the anthropologist would live in and participate in the life of the community for an extended period (often years), becoming part of it, while maintaining the ability to stand outside it and analyze it. Ultimately, the researcher would leave the community and publish reports that other anthropologists read, contributing thereby to the accumulation of knowledge about human societies in general and informing those who might wish to interact with the particular society that was studied. By the 1970s, some anthropologists were severely criticizing this traditional approach of the discipline, arguing that ethnography effectively exploited the communities being studied, which were no more than raw material for the production of academic knowledge. Moreover, it was charged that traditional anthropology was complicit in the destruction of the societies...

Pp. 438. $59.95 cloth, $27.95 paper.) Perhaps the most significant event in Ecuador in the 1990s was the emergence of ethnic movements. In 1986, after a prolonged period of organization, indigenous nationalities of the three main regions (coast, sierra, and Amazonía) created the Confederation of Indigenous Nationalities of Ecuador (CONAIE). This organization led several mobilizations and "uprisings" in July 1990, April 1992, June 1994, January and February 1997, January 2000, and January 2001. CONAIE, however, is not the only indigenous organization. Indigenous evangelicals have their own organization, the Federación de Indígenas Evangélicos del Ecuador (FEINE) [End Page 247] and their own political party Amauta Jatari (renamed as Amauta Yuyay) that has participated in elections since 1998. Even though FEINE and CONAIE tend to compete for state resources, they have joined forces a few times as they did in the 2001 indigenous uprising. Indigenous uprisings are forms of collective action in which indigenous communities have blocked major roads and have marched to cities to present their demands. Indigenous organizations have been at the forefront of the opposition to structural adjustment policies. They have also incorporated ethnic claims such as bilingual education and changing national identity from mestizo to multicultural and multiethnic. Indigenous protests were prominent in the removal of two elected presidents from office, Abdalá Bucaram in February 1997 and Jamil Mahuad in January 2000. Indigenous protests have met with little repression. State officials, including presidents of different ideological orientations, have entered into national dialogues and have accepted some of the groups' claims. The Constitution of 1998, for instance, incorporated collective rights and has changed the character of the nation to multicultural and multiethnic. CONAIE has directed bilingual education programs that target indigenous people and has participated with the government and the World Bank in PRODEPINE (Proyecto de Desarrollo de los Pueblos Indígenas y Afroecuatorianos), the first major ethno-development project in the Americas. In addition, indigenous nationalities of the Oriente were granted more than a million hectares of land. Even though Afro-Ecuadorians have not had the same visibility as indigenous people, the number of black and Afro organizations multiplied in the 1990s. The state and the World Bank have included them in ethno-development projects, and Afro-Ecuadorians are demanding the creation of palenques (named after runaway slave settlements) in their "ancestral" territories in the northern province of Esmeraldas. What explains the emergence of ethnic movements in Ecuador? How can we account for state responses? What are some of the transformations of ethnic relations? Is Ecuador experiencing a renewal of the meanings of citizenship? The books discussed in this review give important clues to answer these questions. Liberalism and Fear Mercedes Prieto focuses on the political and academic debates of the elites about "Indians" between 1895 and 1950 to analyze the ambiguities of the liberal universalistic project in a postcolonial nation. This period has been characterized by Andrés Guerrero (2000) as a time in which...
