Topic: This course will examine the experiences of Latin America's indigenous peoples who have dealt with invasion, conquest, exploitation, and acculturation, all whild maintaining their own campaign for sovereignty and autonomy in their homelands. We will read oth classcal studies of the 1960s and 1970s and the latest work of the last decades. In a comparative frame we will ask wht indigeneity has meant in different epochs, what epistemological problems historians, ethnohistorians and anthropologists have faced in representing and analyzing these cultures within European systems of knowledge production, and how the effects of empire, nation-state formation and neo-liberal muticulturalism posed different types of challenges for Latin Amerinca's indigenous peoples. We will look at dimenstion from society and economy to power, citizenship, memory, and cultural representation. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
