Mingas, Markets and Modernization: An Examination of the Effects of Market Orientation on the Traditional Labor Form in an Andean Community
Abstract
The fieldwork for this project was completed during an 11 week period in
the fall of 1996. During this time I lived with an indigenous family in the
community of Peguche and participated with the neighboring community of
lluman in their mingas for a potable water project. In the course of this research,
I utilized several methods to obtain my data. Among the methods used were
formal and informal interviews, fieldnotes and participant observation. I further
supplemented these by taking photographs with a 35mm camera, recording
interviews with a mini-cassette recorder and typing notes into a laptop computer
in the field.
