Trade Paperback. A paperback copy in very good condition. Until now, Andean peasants have primarily been thought of by scholars as isolated subsistence farmers, "resistant" to money and to different markets in the region. Ethnicity, Markets, and Migration in the Andes overturns this widely held assumption and puts in its place a new perspective as it explores the dynamic between Andean cultural, social, and economic practices and the market forces of a colonial and postcolonial mercantile economy. Bringing together the work of outstanding scholars in Andean history, anthropology, and ethnohistory, these pioneering essays show how, from the very earliest period of Spanish rule, Andean peasants and their rulers embraced the new economic opportunities and challenged or subverted the new structures introduced by the colonial administration. They also convincingly explain why in the twentieth century the mistaken idea developed that Andean peasants were conservative and unable to participate effectively in different markets, and reveal how closely ethnic inequalities were tied to evolving market relations. Inviting a critical reconsideration of ethnic, class, and gender issues in the context of rural Andean markets, this book will revise the prevailing view of Andean history and provide a more fully informed picture of the complex mercantile activities of Andean peasants.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. Brand new hardcover book! Never been read!; Reflecting the optimism of his time, Henry D. Moyle (1889-1963) , counselor in the First Presidency of the LDS church, approached every endeavor on a grand scale. He thought the Church Office Building should be twice its existing twenty-eight stories. As overseer of the Church Building Committee, he spearheaded a bold spend-now, pay-later policy ("Build for the next ten years") on the assumption that larger chapels would attract more converts. As head of the Missionary Committee, he encouraged youth baptisms, creating "concern among those who did not share his optimism, " according to biographer Richard D. Poll, about whether "the tithes of new converts would replenish the diminishing church reserves. " Ultimately these utopian views proved unfeasible. As the church neared bankruptcy, President David O. McKay found it necessary to relieve Moyle of all administrative responsibilities. Even so, Moyle's influence can be seen today. His can-do spirit and aggresiveness left an imprint on the visible church around the world, as well as in the increased pride of its membership. His unyielding commitment to growth and his indomitable confidence in the future attest to his remarkable faith, however unorthodox his methodology was. In Poll's narrative, readers are treated to a rare glimpse of Elder Moyle's life and an understanding of the times, such is seldom afforded modern readers of LDS literature. For instance, in 1909 when young Henry began his three-year mission to Europe, it was at a time when the continent was still ruled largely by monarchs. He saw Kaiser Wilhelm II riding through the street in state and saw King George V arrive at his coronation. Proselyting was illegal in much of Europe, and once the polizei disrupted a church service to escort Henry from the podium. The church was different then. As an example, missionaries had very few guidelinessomething Moyle would later rectify. But as it was, he and the other elders traveled extensively on sight-seeing excursions, spent prolonged periods away from their companions, and attended public dances. Henry spent the last year of his mission stydying engineering at the University of Freiberg. Poll's treatment of this period includes a fascinating look at Moyle's family: Alberta's resistance to being "a general authority's wife, " her musical talent, and her sometimes independent-minded opinions. When the Moyles left Salt Lake City's downtown mansions in favor of the wide-open suburban landscape, they were among the first to do so. For his part, Henry found personal interests in professional boxing, operato which he was exposed in Germanyand other pastimes. While an apostle he sat on corporate boards of Consolidated Freightways, Phillips Petroleum, and other firms. He arranged church travel to coincide with business, and took family members with him to visit friends, to shop, and to attend cultural events. "Convinced of the validity of Mormonism, " writes Poll, "President Moyle left the finer points of theology to others" and "concentrated on making the church an effective force for good in the lives of its members. Quick in sizing up situations and devising solutions, " he was, as one associate observed, "a worker, a mover, who got things that needed doing done. " In his diary, Moyle "spelled out a blend of Protestant ethic and noblesse oblige, " and he spoke of "an enthusiasm and appreciation for the work at hand. " In reality, "his talent and drive carried him to great influence and disappointment, " writes Poll. At his funeral, Apostle Harold B. Lee contrasted Moyle's "deep-seated spirituality" to his "bulldog tenacity. " As the biographer concludes, "President Moyle may sometimes have pushed too aggressively, " but he "pushed mainly in the right direction. ; 6" x 9"; 260 pages.
