The Lives of Stone Tools

Kathryn Weedman Arthur

The Lives of Stone Tools gives voice to the Indigenous Gamo lithic practitioners of southern Ethiopia.

Crafting Wounaan Landscapes

Julie Velásquez Runk

In Crafting Wounaan Landscapes, Julie Velásquez Runk upends long-standing assumptions about the people that call Panama's Darién home, and she demonstrates the agency of the Wounaan people to make their living and preserve and transform their way of life in the face of continuous and tremendous change. Velásquez Runk focuses on Wounaan crafting—how their ability to subtly effect change has granted them resilience in a dynamic and globalized era. She theorizes that unpredictable landscapes, political decisions, and cultural beliefs are responsible for environmental conservation problems, and she unpacks environmental governance efforts that illustrate what happens when conservation is confronted with people in a purportedly peopleless place.
