Böcker av Ronald Loewe

Loewe offers a contemporary look at a Maya community caught between tradition and modernity. He skilfully weaves the history of Mexico and this particular community into the analysis, providing a unique understanding of how one local community has faced the onslaught of modernization.

Of Sacred Lands and Strip Malls examines the acrimonious and costly conflict over control of Puvungna-land owned by California but sacred to several Native American tribes-and explores ongoing reverberations from the academic, political, and legal battles.
