Behold The Black Caiman: A Chronicle Of Ayoreo Life,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In 2004, one of the worlds last bands of voluntarily isolated nomads left behind their ancestral life in the dwindling thorn forests of northern Paraguay, fleeing ranchers bulldozers. Behold the Black Caiman is Lucas Bessires intimate chronicle of the journey of this small group of Ayoreo people, the terrifying new world they now face, and the precarious lives they are piecing together against the backdrop of soulcollecting missionaries, humanitarian NGOs, late liberal economic policies, and the highest deforestation rate in the world.Drawing on ten years of fieldwork, Bessire highlights the stark disconnect between the desperate conditions of Ayoreo life for those out of the forest and the wellfunded global efforts to preserve those Ayoreo still living in it. By showing how this disconnect reverberates within Ayoreo bodies and minds, his reflexive account takes aim at the devastating consequences of our societys continued obsession with the primitive and raises important questions about anthropologys potent capacity to further or impede indigenous struggles for sovereignty. The result is a timely update to the classic literary ethnographies of South America, a sustained critique of the socalled ontological turnone of anthropologys hottest trendsand, above all, an urgent call for scholars and activists alike to rethink their notions of difference.
