Sumario:"This book offers the first interpretive synthesis of the history of Andean peasants and the challenges of nation making in the four republics of Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia during the turbulent nineteenth century." "Brooke Larson paints vivid portraits of Creole ruling elites, mestizo middle sectors, and native peasantries engaged in ongoing political and moral battles over the rightful place of the Indian majorities in these emerging, but still inchoate, nation-states. In this story, indigenous people emerge as crucial protagonists through their prosaic struggles for land, community, and "ethnic" identity, as well as in the upheavals of war, rebellion, and repression in rural society."--Jacket
