It will analyze this autonomous initiative, the socio-political context of its emergence, and the political and educational will underlying this request. It will briefly present previous experiences of producing printed educational material in Indigenous languages in Venezuela. The discussion will address a number of issues, in particular the conflict between generations and the “generational gap”, and the search for autonomy through the publication of books showing how, in response to divergent positions between modern and traditional lifestyles, the publication of cultural texts corresponds as much to a political response to the imposition of external values as to a desire for transmission. The aim of this article is to highlight the ideology of transmission as a value. This configuration includes the transmission of values and therefore its control. The latter is actively desired and effective thanks to operations designed to control the transmission of knowledge as a fundamental operation guaranteeing the reproduction and perpetuation of society.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":45512,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology","volume":"30 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145129067","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}

This article—co-authored by an anthropologist and one of the school's directors—highlights the “revolutionary” education Aynikusun provided by enabling students to complete their high school education using texts written in Quechua and Aymara that reflected local realities, rather than the Spanish-language textbooks of state schools, which were oriented toward a metropolitan national culture. Literate campesinos no longer needed to rely on the townspeople, for example, to navigate state bureaucracy. Aynikusun also provided its adult students with a dedicated space in which to discuss their problems free from interference. This became particularly important prior to municipal elections in 1995, the first time a mayor was elected from one of the Indigenous communities rather than the town, Charazani. Prior to the election, campesinos deliberated shared challenges and reimagined their relationship with the town. Ultimately, literacy and empowerment fostered by Aynikusun made it possible for campesinos to govern the municipality and to reshape social relations.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":45512,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology","volume":"30 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145129066","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}

In recent years, there has been a rise in Indigenous publishing involving collaboration with anthropologists and/or anthropological knowledge. Indigenous collectives often invite anthropologists to support their autonomous publishing projects centered around history and cultural revitalization, due to their presumed interest in recording everyday performances and mobilizing diverse publics. In contemporary Latin America, cultural revitalization is often linked to Indigenous autonomy, interrogating and rekindling memory when salvage anthropology is considered unfashionable and impractical. Yet the reappropriation and repurposing of ethnographic knowledge may offer the possibility to retrace what no longer is, remember and retransmit in various ways, make present anew, or even create alternative forms of (re)presentation. The articles in this special issue explore the dynamics of collaboration in the context of decolonial initiatives and the persistence and transformation of mediatic forms.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":45512,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology","volume":"30 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145129078","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}

Their content remained opaque to him and their nature ambiguous. We have since collaborated to decipher these texts, exploring their histories and materialities while considering how to ethically share them. Our approach has evolved as we have gained insights into the meanings and functions of these palimpsestic religious texts through ethnographic, philological, and historical work. Discovering that many writings were part of a regular process of copying and recopying for regeneration, we considered print publication. However, this raised a number of questions. Can the printed version be considered as another regenerative copy? What about the transformative power of the oralization of the text that generally takes place between two written copies? Would printed copies be as readily accepted by the ritual specialists as the digital copies used in our research? What kind of interest would they and the lay Maya find in publications of such kind? This article addresses these issues, examining the relations between traditional written texts, modern publications, and cultural regeneration.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":45512,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology","volume":"30 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145129446","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}
