On the one hand, self-identified Mexicans express sensory and memory nostalgia during the production and consumption of foods they recognize as their own. For these individuals, the intersection of nostalgia and authenticity contributes to the formation of strategies that allow them to integrate into a new environment while maintaining ties and practices with their places of origin. On the other hand, there are expressions I call nostalgia of consumption and conquest (ersatz nostalgia). Although the convergence of terms seems to suggest a common ground for dialogue, I maintain that they frame distinct processes. To this end, the study is based on participant observation, a review of newspapers, and semi-structured interviews, which contribute to studies that revisit emotions as fundamental elements in the analysis of sociocultural phenomena, such as migration, and of some differences between the production and consumption of migrant food offerings.","PeriodicalId":45512,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology","volume":"30 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jlca.70013","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144323610","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We explore how this mode of migrant mobility unfolds spatially, while simultaneously being shaped by—and resisting—the reinforcement of regional control mechanisms. Challenging the dominant narrative that frames irregularized transit migration as either a temporary stay or an “illegal” journey between two countries, we argue that it constitutes a heterogeneous, multitemporal, and multidimensional social force that redefines cross-border spatial struggles. Drawing on ethnographic material collected between 2019 and 2021, we analyze three interwoven dimensions of Venezuelan transit migration: political-economic, sociocultural, and subjective. As the article demonstrates, these dimensions generate multi-scalar spatial reverberations across the studied corridor.","PeriodicalId":45512,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology","volume":"30 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jlca.70008","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144323500","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sostiene que los sonidos ceremoniales crean una experiencia inmersiva que facilita la intercomunicación entre humanos, espíritus y el ecosistema en un espacio eco-espiritualmente precario, haciendo audible una forma distintivamente urbana de pensamiento y existencia mapuche. Al establecer y hacer perceptibles relaciones humanas, no-humanas y más-que-humanas, la producción y sensación del sonido reafirman la presencia, a menudo negada, de fuerzas y entidades eco-espirituales en la ciudad —componentes centrales del mundo vivo mapuche. Sin embargo, este entrelazamiento de los órdenes antropológicos, ecológicos y cosmológicos facilitado por el llellipun difiere de contextos rurales mapuche. De hecho, la precariedad ecológica y urbana de Santiago, que dificulta la comunicación con la naturaleza y los espíritus, convierte al llellipun en un medio esencial de existencia mapuche, permitiéndoles reactivar una relacionalidad eco-espiritual que la urbanidad ciertamente ha obstaculizado, pero aún no ha destruido.","PeriodicalId":45512,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology","volume":"30 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144323616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

La prolífica presencia y usos de perros en los Andes Centrales, así como en partes de la Cuenca del Paraná, la Patagonia y la región circumcaribeña, contrasta con la notoria falta de registros en las tierras bajas precolombinas del Neotrópico. La perspectiva ontológica no puede explicar este patrón. El perro llegó a América domesticado; existen fundamentos comunes de las ontologías amazónica y andina. La expansión arahuaca hacia el Caribe registra ejemplos de perros. Es posible que poblaciones de cánidos precolombinos endémicos hayan sido sujetos de un proceso de domesticación. Existe un uso generalizado de perros para la caza en la Amazonia actual, pero la ausencia de otros usos es notable. Se plantea la hipótesis de un intercambio de perros entre Mesoamérica, los Andes y el Caribe con base en evidencia esquelética e iconográfica. Al adoptar el perro europeo, los amerindios amazónicos aplicaron una categoría nativa, el jaguar, a la especie exótica.","PeriodicalId":45512,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology","volume":"30 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144323657","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on research in southern Honduras, it argues that we need to disentangle the racialized and religious politics involved with informal spaces of assistance or acompañamiento in contexts where migrants tend to stay temporarily. Engaging with the notion of acompañamiento through the hosting practices of ordinary citizens shows how racialization gets produced and reinforced in tandem with religious teachings, entrepreneurial considerations, and local migration anxieties. The article concludes that racialization is shaped through the histories and inequalities of place and confirms the intersectional nature of racialization, which incorporates religious identities and hierarchies. Highlighting how the challenges of acompañamiento help attend to shared experiences of injustice and persistent inequalities of human mobility, the article also contributes to broadening migrant trajectory research to the communities that surround migration routes.","PeriodicalId":45512,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jlca.70000","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143707199","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
