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.

Ítem Texto completo enlazado Desarrollo y política indígena en el Alto Yuruá (frontera Brasil-Perú)(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2022-08-29) Pimenta, JoséThe Rio Amonia Ashaninka indigenous people live in the Brazilian state of Acre on the Upper Jurua River on the border between Brazil and Peru. After their struggle against intensive lumber activities in the 1980s, andhaving obtained the demarcation of their territory in the early 1990s, they engaged in strategic alliances with several partners as an attempt to find economic alternatives to lumbering. In the past twenty years, withthe growing influence of environmental concerns regarding development in the Amazon, the Amonia Ashaninka acquired great political visibility through various projects geared to the paradigm of «sustainable development ». Based on ethnographic fieldwork, carried out in various stages over the last fifteen years with the Amonia Ashaninka, this article retraces the plight of this community in the past two decades for land demarcation and to establish interethnic and transfrontier alliances as a means to install a broad «sustainable development» policy for the entire Upper Jurua region. It also analyses the present day development and border policies of both the Brazilian and Peruvian states, which entail new threats to the region’s indigenous peoples.Ítem Texto completo enlazado Género, turismo y exportación: ¿llamando a la plata en el Perú?(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2007-03-27) Henrici, JaneThis 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.Ítem Texto completo enlazado Los achuares del Corrientes: el Estado ante su propio paradigma(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2010-03-26) Chirif, AlbertoThe paper analyses the events leading to the 2006 uprising of theAchuar people of the Corrientes basin (Loreto), who have sufferedfour decades of contamination due to oil exploitation. It also examinesthe Peruvian State’s and the oil company´s attitudes throughoutthe protest and after signing an agreement aiming to stop contaminationand remedy environmental and social havoc. Materials usedinclude interviews conducted with different stake holders and a widerange of written records, such as political declarations, reports onlocal people´s health´s and remediation work, agreement documentsand letters exchanged between stake holders, as well as historicaland socio economic background information. Findings highlight thestrength of organized indigenous people´s claiming for their rights;the greater commitment to assuming responsibility shown by the oilcompany´s as compared to the Peruvian State; and the weakness ofa political discourse equating development with the extraction ofnatural resources. The main conclusion is that the Peruvian Statedoes not fulfill the paradigm set in the first article of the Constitution:that the defense of the human person and the respect of its dignityare its supreme aim.Ítem Texto completo enlazado Petróleo, desarrollo y naturaleza: aproximaciones a un escenario de ampliación de las fronteras extractivas hacia la Amazonía suroriente en el Ecuador(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2014-07-17) Vallejo, IvetteThe article discusses the expansion of extractive frontiers in the southeastern region of Ecuador, with the bidding for oil blocksaround XI Round Oil. It presents the results of a research done 2013-2014, which aimed to analyze the bonds between extractiveand developmental policies and their effects on indigenous people’s territorial dynamics. The research included interviewing leaders ofindigenous organizations and government officials in the province of Pastaza, conducting thematic forums and monitoring of key events(forums), plus reviewing documentary sources. This article describes government policies that strengthen the developmental cosmography and coloniality of nature in the Amazon, and cause setbacks in the implementation of collective rights, while various positions,narratives and indigenous people agency activated conflicts around the control over territory and resources.Ítem Texto completo enlazado Los planes de vida y la política indígena en la Amazonía peruana(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2014-07-17) Espinosa, OscarIn this article the political dimension of the «planes de vida indígena» (indigenous life plans) are discussed in three cases from the Peruvian Amazon region. In these cases, the «planes de vida» have fulfilled a role in the process of indigenous self-government or in the negotiation of the indigenous agenda vis-à-vis the State. The three cases studied are those of the Achuar people, an Ashaninka local organization – the Central Asháninka del Río Ene (CARE) – and the case of AIDESEP, the national-level indigenous organization for the Amazon region in Peru.Ítem Texto completo enlazado Nuevos escenarios, nuevas propuestas, otras actoras: licenciadas indígenas y la Universidad Veracruzana Intercultural(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2017-12-15) Olivera Rodríguez, InésThis article discusses the emergence of new actors among graduate students in Mexico, specifically of indigenous graduate women, who are one of the results of an educational model that intends to question the prevailing developmental logic. It describes and analyzes the role of intercultural higher education policies as catalyst for an emerging professional profile that is having important impacts in building new family, community and regional relations. Through the discussion of these policies, their origins, limits and possibilities, this paper focuses on the specific proposal of the Universidad Veracruzana Intercultural (UVI). It also examines the life experiences of five UVI female graduates, and concentrates in one case in which her trajectory is compared to the life experiences of her own mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. Through these cases, the paper seeks to identify the ways in which the UVI contributes to the constitution of these new female actors.Ítem Texto completo enlazado Minería, instituciones y sostenibilidad: desencuentros y desafíos(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2010-03-26) Bebbington, Anthony J.; Bury, Jeffrey T.Global consumption continues to generate growth in mining. In lesserdeveloped economies, this growth offers the potential to generate newresources for development, but also creates challenges to sustainabilityin the regions in which extraction occurs. This context leads todebate on the institutional arrangements most likely to build synergiesbetween mining, livelihoods, and development, and on the socio-politicalconditions under which such institutions can emerge. Buildingfrom a multiyear, three country program of research projects, Peru, aglobal center of mining expansion, serves as an exemplar for analyzingthe effects of extractive industry on livelihoods and the conditionsunder which arrangements favoring local sustainability might emerge.This program is guided by three emergent hypotheses in human environmentalsciences regarding the relationships among institutions,knowledge, learning, and sustainability. The research combines indepthand comparative case study analysis, and uses mapping andspatial analysis, surveys, in-depth interviews, participant observation,and our own direct participation in public debates on the regulation ofmining for development. The findings demonstrate the pressures thatmining expansion has placed on water resources, livelihood assets,and social relationships. These pressures are a result of institutionalconditions that separate the governance of mineral expansion, waterresources, and local development, and of relationships of power thatprioritize large scale investment over livelihood and environment. Afurther problem is the poor communication between mining sectorknowledge systems and those of local populations. These results areconsistent with themes recently elaborated in sustainability science.
