Abstract:
Stone and ceramic figurines occurred in many pre-Columbian cultures of Amazonia but only appear as recurrent, traditional objects late in the cultural history of the region, primarily in the large settlements which flourished along the Lower Amazon and its estuaries. Marajoara and Santarém ceramics include an array of figurines depicting humans and animals, in languages emphasizing body transformation and reproduction, and, sometimes, decapitation. Some also performed as rattles, or maracas, an instrument traditionally related to shamanic power. Stone figurines from the Lower Amazon present similar modes of body representation and seem to be part of the drug paraphernalia used in shamanic rituals. Rather than being a marker for the appearance of more complex, agrarian societies, Amazonian figurines seem to be related to the intensification of deeply rooted shamanic practices. This chapter reviews the context and repertoires of figurine traditions within the different models proposed in Amazonian archaeology for pre-Columbian societies.

Abstract:
La colección interdisciplinaria Estudios de la Orinoquia y la Amazonia busca generar conocimiento, fomentar la discusión académica y asumir alternativas de solución a problemas regionales en la Orinoquia y la Amazonia. Si la Orinoquia y la Amazonia son territorios especiales por su abandono histórico y ellos constituyen una región única, deben tener un tratamiento especial que facilite su desarrollo y promueva el acceso al conocimiento científico y a los bienes producidos en el mundo desarrollado con el respeto a las poblaciones ancestrales y a las culturas regionales. En este segundo volumen se encuentran trabajos relacionados con las ciencias sociales y humanas en estas regiones. Se abordan tópicos que van desde la educación en la Orinoquia; la geopolítica, integración física y desarrollo en la Amazonía; pasando por los colectivos quilombolas en la Amazonia brasileña; pintura amazónica contemporánea; planes de vida de indígenas de la Amazonía y la Orinoquia; hasta el estudio del mito, el mercado y múltiples ontologías en un proyecto de jardín forestal entre los Sateré-Mawé de la Amazonia brasileña. Las temáticas son variadas y deben ser asumidas desde una apertura teórica, metodológica y procedimental para alcanzar la comprensión del fenómeno en sus dimensiones y en sus contextos.

Abstract:
Sustainable development is among the foremost ideas that guide societal aspirations around the world. This book interrogates the concept through a critical lens, examining both its history and the trajectory of its manifestations in the Brazilian Amazon. The book argues that sustainable development is a concept that is better understood as involving embroilments and ongoing processes of contestation rather than a single end goal. The research offers historical analysis of Amazonian development from the colonial era into the discourse and praxis of sustainable development in contemporary times, and then illustrates the tensions of sustainable development plans that are experienced by people living in the areas geographically the closest to where those plans are being implemented. The history of the Brazilian Amazon is introduced to readers through focused discussions on the tensions between making grand plans for the region and the everyday practices and experiences of sustainable development, which involve considerably more muddling. Case studies explore agrarian reform initiatives that occur alongside road paving projects, the creation of extractive reserves and conservation areas that follow in the wake of assassinations, and the construction of a massive hydroelectric dam. While Amazonian sustainable development is a widely-accepted imperative, the research presented here shows how land use and infrastructure plans conducted in the name of sustainable development often perpetuate and reinforce economic and political inequalities.

Abstract:
Lowland Amazonia is the locus of substantial linguistic diversity in terms of genetic affiliation, language structure, and numbers of languages. This chapter will focus on the distribution of types of polysynthetic patterns within Lowland Amazonia, with special attention to the spread, and the types, of noun incorporation. The highest concentration of polysynthetic languages in Amazonia is the region south of the Amazon River, spanning adjacent regions of Peru, Brazil, and Bolivia. Polysynthetic patterns can be reconstructed for the protolanguages of some families, such as Panoan, Harakmbet, and possibly Arawá. Polysynthetic patterns in Arawak family (by far the largest in terms of its geographical spread) are often due to areal diffusion. We will focus on a number of mechanisms for the development of polysynthesis in established linguistic areas, for example the Vaupés River Basin linguistic area, and on a number of established instances of intensive language contact.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the dynamics of culture change and cultural stability among the Shuar, an indigenous Amazonian society in southeastern Ecuador. While the Shuar have always engaged in transactions with markets and global flows in Ecuador and beyond, rapid changes in technology and infrastructure in the Amazon region are leading to changes in economic and social practices, norms, ideologies, and modes of interaction within and across Shuar society. The conceptual tools of cultural evolutionary theory may help readers to understand which aspects of Shuar social and economic life remain relatively stable through these transitions and which aspects undergo rapid change and why. This chapter proposes a framework for theorizing domains of change and stasis in contemporary Shuar culture and suggests ways in which this framework can be applied to understanding broader questions about the dynamics of human cultural history.

Abstract:
Las drásticas transformaciones que vive la Amazonía ecuatoriana, expresadas en la expansión del extractivismo, la desterritorialización de los pueblos indígenas y la consolidación del Estado como actor clave y preponderante son aspectos pendientes de ser comprendidos en tanto resultado de procesos históricos de larga data. Esta obra colectiva contribuye a su comprensión y profundiza las complejas relaciones entre los actores que interactuaron en la conformación regional de la Amazonía ecuatoriana, enfatizando el rol de las misiones y de los pueblos indígenas junto a otras agencias tales como los militares, colonos, mineros y élites regionales. La obra convoca a especialistas de diferentes perfiles perfiles y adscripciones institucionales (historiadores, educadores, antropólogos, politólogos...) cuyas contribuciones arrojan una visión compleja y heterogénea, y dan luces para entender la trama del presente a través de estudios de caso regionales, de análisis del discurso y de la investigación del pensamiento y la acción de figuras preponderantes.
