Description

Product Description This innovative, interactive ethnography employs a range of media to explore the lives of the residents of a village set in the rugged mountains overlooking Mexico City, focusing on how these villagers react and adapt to a rapidly globalized world. Students can view the evolving life of San Jerónimo Amanalco and its region over the past four decades through print, web-embedded, and e-reader enabled resources. This book-offers a multimedia approach, including archival images and documents, original photographs, audio recordings, and extensive video;-incorporates ethnographic information gathered during the author’s four decades of research in the region;-includes community members’ responses to the author’s research through social media, email, and video-taped comments. Review "This innovative, interactive, and highly engaging ethnography weaves together compelling personal narratives within the context of a Mexican community's adaption to political, economic, and cultural transformations. Drawing on more than 40 years of fieldwork, Sokolovsky immerses the reader in family and village relationships including intergenerational and gender rituals and conflicts. Cultural anthropology at its best." --Serena Nanda, John Jay College of Criminal Justice, CUN "This is the ethnography of the future, a true multimedia book, embedded with links to PowerPoints, audio clips, videos, and Google maps. Indigenous Mexico documents the evolution of central Mexican community from a traditional agrarian peasant village to a robust town engaged with the larger forces of globalization. The author has set a new standard for interactive ethnography." --Tony Andrews, New College of Florida About the Author Jay Sokolovsky is Professor of Anthropology in the Department of Society, Culture and Language at the University of South Florida St. Petersburg, USA.
