5.0 out of 5 stars A detailed survey, September 23, 2006
This review is from: Voices from the Global Margin: Confronting Poverty and Inventing New Lives in the Andes (Paperback)
VOICES FROM THE GLOBAL MARGIN: CONFRONTING POVERTY & INVENTING NEW LIVES IN THE ANDES focuses on the Peruvian poor and uses narratives from people he's known for forty years to explore how they've coped with poverty and rapid population growth. Chapters are based on these case history narratives and come from an anthropologist who lives among those he writes about, making for far more of a detailed survey than any archive-based study could achieve.

5.0 out of 5 stars An engaging story of struggle and change in Latin America., August 13, 2006
This review is from: Voices from the Global Margin: Confronting Poverty and Inventing New Lives in the Andes (Paperback)
This book is a wonderful account of the changes being wrought in the Andes by globalisation and evolving economic realities. It also tells the story of one anthropologist's growth as he works among the people of the highland Andes. I reccomend it highly.
