Dean, Bartholomew, 'Historicizing Amazonia: Domination, Unequal Exchange, and Value Extraction', Urarina Society, Cosmology, and History in Peruvian Amazonia (Gainesville, FL , 2009; online edn, Florida Scholarship Online, 14 Sept. 2011), https://doi.org/10.5744/florida/9780813033785.003.0004, accessed 26 Apr. 2025.
Abstract
This chapter discusses how Urarina society has been shaped by long-term entanglement with missionaries, colonial administrators, and traders, as well as with agents of the “singular” Peruvian nation to which the state gave birth. Following centuries of colonial rule, a pattern of skewed development emerged in Peruvian Amazonia that effectively blocked indigenous people like the Urarina from full participation in the Peruvian nation-state.
