Indigenous groups, who were still subject to extensive racism and injustice, began to reconfigure themselves in relationship to the state and to reorganize their strategies to combat the economic and political forces of neoliberalism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eLong Live Atahualpa\u003c\/i\u003e is a welcome addition to the literature on Latin American indigenous movements, which has been largely dominated by political scientists working on a macro scale. There has been a great need for ethnographies such as this one, an in-depth examination of local and regional indigenous organizing. In this sensitive, richly documented ethnography Emma Cervone deftly moves across political, economic, and cultural domains, not privileging one over the other but inquiring into their interconnections.\"—\u003cb\u003eJoanne Rappaport\u003c\/b\u003e, author of \u003ci\u003eIntercultural Utopias: Public Intellectuals, Cultural Experimentation, and Ethnic Pluralism in Colombia\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"This fascinating ethnography makes original contributions to the study of social movements, identity as lived within a social world of invidious stereotypes, and debates over whether multiculturalism as a national policy is empowering or disempowering for indigenous groups. Emma Cervone engages central issues in anthropology, political science, and ethnic studies. She offers a very effective analysis of the dynamics of political consciousness, the internalization of racism, and indigenous movement organizing at different levels. The result is a striking construction of ethnically inflected class issues in the central Andean region of Ecuador.\"—\u003cb\u003eKay B.
