This volume presents a comprehensive overview of biocultural rights, examining how we can promote the role of indigenous peoples and local communities as environmental stewards and how we can ensure that their ways of life are protected.
With Biocultural Community Protocols (BCPs) or Community Protocols (CPs) are increasingly seen as a powerful wa...
In this timely collection, the authors examine Indigenous peoples’ negotiations with different cosmologies in a globalized world. Dussart and Poirier outline a sophisticated theory of change that accounts for the complexity of Indigenous peoples’ engagement with Christianity and other cosmologies, their own colonial experiences, as well as their on...
A la lumière des études menées dans huit pays distincts, les auteurs de cet ouvrage observent que ce qui est qualifié de "savoirs locaux" sur les ressources et les environnements naturels est indissociable des contextes, des pratiques ou plus généralement des réseaux où ils se déploient. Ils sont difficilement décryptables en dehors des interventio...
Les pommes de terre ont une âme dans les Andes. Il y a des « pommes de terre (du) cadavre » ( aya papa ), des « pommes de terre des mauvais-morts » ( papa de losgentiles ), lesquelles ont en commun de n’être pas domestiquées. Il y a aussi des pommes de terre déshydratées ( chuño ) qui sont presque mortes. Que nous enseigne ceci sur la façon dont le...
The community is a very important institution in the rural areas of Peru, especially in the Andes. It is admitted that the common management of land is one of its main feature. The agrarian reform of 1969 represents a very important event in that perspective as communities recognized by the state received a collective property title for their land....
Speech and hierarchy in the South Peruvian Andes
If the monthly meetings of Andean peasant communities appear to be key moments in the life of the peasant communities of the Peruvian Andes, their functioning remains fairly unknown. An analysis of the speeches made in that context allows to show the social and political logic enacted in this forum....
Le décompte des journées de travail est une pratique ancienne et l'ethnographie de la communauté paysanne de Llanchu située dans les Andes sud-péruviennes (Calca, Cusco, Pérou) montre que c'est également une pratique socialement très importante. À l'époque préhispanique, les khipu servaient notamment à indiquer à l'Inca le nombre de jours travaillé...
La Reforma Agraria, promulgada en 1969, constituye en el Perú un evento crucial para las comunidades campesinas. Algunas de ellas, como Llanchu (provincia de Calca, departamento del Cusco), de la cual nos ocuparemos en el presente artículo, incluso le deben su origen. Sin embargo, y curiosamente, este acontecimiento difícilmente es evocado en esta...
The ethnographic datum analyzed in this paper concerns the cultivation of an irrigated plot in a peasant community of the South Peruvian Andes (Calca, Cusco). We will focus on the analogies made by peasants, which relate to two specific semantic domains: human physiology and weaving techniques. We propose a presentation of each punctual analogy acc...
À partir d’une étude ethnographique de la mise en culture d’une parcelle irriguée réalisée dans une communauté paysanne des Andes sud-péruviennes (Calca, Cusco),différentes analogies établies par les paysans ont pu être mises en évidence, tout au long du cycle agricole, entre cette culture irriguée et des domaines relevant notamment de la physiolog...
A Canal to Build a GenealogyThis article is on the structural effects water-sharing may have on society, in a Malagasy case. The analysis of irrigation networks usually shows how social components are essential to the technical infrastructure and to the allocation of water. It is now generally admitted that a given society organizes the allocation...
Dans les Andes péruviennes, l’irrigation se fait par gravité au fil de l’eau. Mais depuis une dizaine d’années, l’irrigation par aspersion, dite « technifiée », s’installe et s’impose sous l’impulsion de différentes institutions de développement (ONG, ministère de l’agriculture). La réussite de ce transfert de technologie a des conséquences : socia...

This research project focuses on the Biocultural Community Protocols (BCPs) that have developed in the past few decades throughout the world and more specifically those engaging with plants and associated traditional ecological knowledge over two continents.
Our assumption is that that, with their aptitude to mobilize customary laws, non-Western ontologies and the stewardship of nature, BCPs are one of the hallmarks of biocultural jurisprudence. And they must be understood as an attempt to challenge Western legal categories and to advance indigenous peoples' and local communities' rights through the recognition of their traditional practices, customary laws, local institutions and ontologies.
