Neoliberal Reform in Machu Picchu
As Latin America completes its second decade of neoliberal reforms, Pellegrino A. Luciano takes readers on an ethnographic journey back to a moment of monumental social and economic change in Peru. In Neoliberal Reform in Machu Picchu, Luciano describes the privatization struggles and challenges of people living in the district of Machu Picchu, a heritage area and tourism destination, during the early 2000s.

Luciano analyzes the role of middle-class actors in consequence, resistance, and accommodation to these neoliberal changes.
