Diversidad migratoria en Guadalajara y Chapala
Este libro reúne un conjunto de estudios sobre grupos de personas que han llegado a la zona metropolitana de Guadalajara y la Ribera de Chapala para comprender sus procesos de asentamiento y reinvención, así como los desafíos que se nos presentan como sociedad de acogida. La obra, que busca contribuir a la reflexión sobre los compromisos que presenta la inmigración y el reconocimiento de cómo su diversidad cultural nos reconfigura y enriquece, presenta un amplio panorama de esta dinámica poblacional, al tiempo que profundiza en la articulación de los flujos migratorios internos, de estados vecinos y de poblaciones indígenas, con la llegada de grupos diversos de inmigrantes extranjeros que se establecen, estudian o hacen negocios en este entorno. Dirigida a estudiantes, investigadores y profesionales, al igual que a funcionarios públicos relacionados con el tema.

Dancing Gods
"A clear, sympathetic, and informed introduction to these people and their ceremonies ... should give every new onlooker a deeper appreciation of the dance which is really a prayer."--The Denver Post
Naven or the Other Self
In this work, the author propose a novel theory of ritual action founded upon an in-depth study of the wide variety of behaviors that the Iatmul of Papua New Guinea identify as naven: a transvestism rite studied by Gregory Bateson in the 1930s and documented by other anthropologists since. Ritual performance is shown to involve the construction of complex relational networks entailing the condensation of contradictory modes of relationship in accordance with over-arching interactive forms. In this volume, inquiry into the history of anthropology, detailed ethnographic analysis and theoretical discussion are combined. The first part examines Bateson's and others' understandings of naven; the second offers a reinterpretation of this ritual in the light of new ethnographic data; and the third proposes a general approach to the analysis of ritual and suggests how this perspective may be applied elsewhere.
Huichol Territory and the Mexican Nation
This book is thus a multi-sited ethnography of territoriality with broad geographical and theoretical reach. Its mix of vivid description and complex theory will engage multiple publics. It is aimed at anthropologists, historians, and geographers who deal with Indian territory and sovereignty in Latin America, but it will also engage readers interested in what "place" means to native peoples and how they represent themselves to global publics. It will also be a good book for students who want to read an innovative ethnography about a quintessentially "traditional" Mexican Indian people's creative response to challenging historical conditions.
