Anthropologica del Departamento de Ciencias Sociales es una publicación de la Especialidad de Antropología de la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú que se edita desde 1983.

Anthropologica publica trabajos originales inéditos resultado de las investigaciones empíricas y etnográficas más recientes dentro de la antropología y disciplinas afines en el ámbito nacional e internacional, con énfasis en la región andina y amazónica. Se dirige a estudiosos de antropología, profesores universitarios, investigadores y académicos de las ciencias sociales y humanas.

La revista está compuesta por cuatro secciones: Artículos, Reseñas, Traducciones, y Testimonios para la historia de la antropología. Las temáticas dentro de estas secciones pueden ser muy variadas como se puede observar al revisar los números anteriormente publicados. Las mismas deben ser, sin embargo, relevantes a la antropología y disciplinas afines.

    Género, turismo y exportación: ¿llamando a la plata en el Perú?
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2007-03-27) Henrici, Jane
    This article offers a brief description of the cases of some women living in the region of Cusco, Peru, who are involved in the production or sale of ethnic objects for the tourist and the export markets. The analysis shows that, while social agents usually emphasize cultural equality and exchange in their discourse, in practice their participation in these circuits tends to reinforce economic and political inequalities.

    La migración femenina: estrategias de sostenimiento y movilidad social entre peruanos en España y Argentina
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2007-03-27) Paerregaard, Karsten
    This article studies the gender pattern of Peruvian migration to Spain and Argentina. The author compares the different contexts that migrants face in both countries and the possibilities that are offered to migrant women in terms of jobs and social mobility. The author also analyzes how these opportunities are reflected in the expectations of Peruvian women to support their families in Peru and to be able to bring them to Spain and Argentina in the long run. Additionally, she explores how migrants design strategies to achieve these expectations through a mind-set (imaginario) where migration is represented as a global hierarchical network and migration targets. The questions underlying this research include the following: who are the women that migrate to these two countries? What type of social network do they use to migrate and how do they migrate? Which are the strategies they develop to support themselves and insert themselves in the labor market of Spain and Argentina? Which are the similarities and the differences observed between Peruvian migration to Spain and Argentina, and which are the economic and social opportunities they encounter as migrants? The data on which this paper is based —the migration experiences of three Peruvian women in each country— was gathered through field work which was carried out in Spain, in 1997, and in Argentina, in 2000.

    Performar para seguir performando: la cultura fitness
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2005-03-21) Kogan, Liuba
    The purpose of this paper is to analyze the culture of the body in gymnasiums. It suggests that if these spaces were, before, the redoubt of boxers and of body-builders, who sought to build strong and muscular bodies for physical competition, today they are used to build the post modern performative self. In this way, they propose new technology, practices, norms and knowledges that leave not much space for individual agency. Thus, the body that is attained within the context of the fitness culture is not a metaphor of the machine, or of the conscience’s tool, which requires discipline and training, it isn’t even the mediator of an inner being. The individual who follows the fitness culture is one who performs to keep performing. His fate is constant movement in order to respond constantly and in a flexible way to the changing commands of post-modernity.

    Mujeres en la Colonia. Dominación colonial, diferencias étnicas y de género en cofradías y fiestas religiosas en Jujuy, Río de la Plata
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2005-03-21) Normando Cruz, Enrique
    The article makes a comparative analysis of the participation of women in the fraternities and religious celebrations, and reveals that at the end of the colonial period there exists «distance between them» established by the economic, cultural and ethnical differences (Bourdieu 2000: 116), between the indigenous women of the rural world and the Spanish women of the elite and between the half-breed and Indian women of the urban shell. This study allows us to see that, while the voices of the female indigenous peasants of Purmamarca, Tumbaya or Cholacor enjoy themselves freely—and sometimes with the use of alcohol—in public spaces, where they work together with the men, and sing with periodical authority in the everyday life of the religious celebrations; the voices of the peasants of the cooperative and the indigenous women who make chicha in the San Salvador de Jujuy square are almost always dominated by a man, can pray their litany only in the chorus of the religious brotherhoods, in family life or in public work spaces which are authorized and controlled by men.
