Description

Carlos David Londoño Sulkin's ethnography explores the understandings and practices of an indigenous group in the Colombian online marketplaces, known as 'People of the Center'.

Their concepts of selfhood, social organization, livelihood, and symbolism are examined, providing insight into their morality and ethics. This book makes a strong case for increased anthropological attention to these topics.

Through innovative research methods and sound analysis, Londoño Sulkin sheds light on key issues in Amazonian anthropology, making this text both accessible to students and theoretically sophisticated.
