Focusing on the indigenous experience in northern Argentina, this case study explores the profound effects of capitalism on local communities. It delves into the socio-economic changes brought about by capitalist practices, examining how these transformations impact cultural identity, land rights, and social structures. Through detailed analysis and real-life examples, the book sheds light on the challenges faced by indigenous populations in navigating a rapidly changing economic landscape.

This volume traces the socioeconomic and environmental changes taking place in the Gran Chaco, a vast and richly biodiverse ecoregion in South America, illuminating how the region's many indigenous groups are negotiating these transformations in their own terms.
