"While theoretically sophisticated, the book's concrete language and brief introductory asides make it suitable for advanced undergraduates unfamiliar with its core concepts." , De la Cadena's Earth Beings  reads, from start to finish, as a labor of love. . . . Each page is dense with insights about the intricacies and challenges of collaborative politics., Earth Beings is essential reading for those following current research on relational ontologies and the importance of other-than-human contributions to society ( ayllu ) by encouraging us to think about how beings, places, knowledges, and power interact, particularly in the Peruvian Andes, but in a way that is relevant to much of South America and beyond.... [T]he exceptional ethnographic narratives and the clarity of writing make this a monograph that could be incorporated into a senior undergraduate or, more likely, a graduate level anthropology, geography, environmental studies, political sciences, or Indigenous studies class., "In response to its own subject, this is an extraordinary intervention in ethnography. Marisol de la Cadena writes not across genres--different perspectives on one entity--but in a way that allows different entities to emerge, and they're not 'genres' at all. Diverse narratives, conversations, and recollections can be read simultaneously as scholarly tools and as making present realities they can hardly contain. A highly courageous and, in personal terms, deeply moving book."  , A remarkable feat of ethnographic writing with a keen linguistic sensitivity and a stunning accomplishment of cultural translation., Earth Beings is a powerful ethnography, the result of more than a decade of fieldwork in the Peruvian Andes.... [T]he reader can visualize the changes in the political opportunities for indigenous peoples in Peru's political trajectory from liberalism to socialism to, most recently, the neoliberal multiculturalism of the new millennium., Earth Beings is one of those books that emerge into the scholarly domain once in a decade that crystallizes that decade's debates and rearticulates them in ways that open paths into new worlds., "While theoretically sophisticated, the book's concrete language and brief introductory asides make it suitable for advanced undergraduates unfamiliar with its core concepts." -- Carwil Bjork-James Anthropological Quarterly " Earth Beings is essential reading for those following current research on relational ontologies and the importance of other-than-human contributions to society ( ayllu ) by encouraging us to think about how beings, places, knowledges, and power interact, particularly in the Peruvian Andes, but in a way that is relevant to much of South America and beyond....

Each page is dense with insights about the intricacies and challenges of collaborative politics." -- Emily Yates-Doerr Medicine Anthropology Theory "De la Cadena's book is an important read and a profound application of contemporary theory to Quechua struggles in South America. It is a moving yet challenging read where the discussions, specifically on cultural politics and representation, can be applied in numerous Indigenous contexts to better transform the relational mode of interactions and divisions between nature, humans and other- than- human entities within a political realm." -- Agnieszka Pawlowska-Mainville AlterNative " Earth Beings is a powerful ethnography, the result of more than a decade of fieldwork in the Peruvian Andes....

Synopsis
Conversing with Mariano and Nazario Turpo, father and son, Marisol de la Cadena explores the entanglements and partial connections between indigenous and non-indigenous worlds, and the ways in which indigenous knowing both include and exceed modern and non-modern practices., Earth Beings is the fruit of Marisol de la Cadena's decade-long conversations with Mariano and Nazario Turpo, father and son, runakuna or Quechua people. Concerned with the mutual entanglements of indigenous and nonindigenous worlds, and the partial connections between them, de la Cadena presents how the Turpos' indigenous ways of knowing and being include and exceed modern and nonmodern practices. Her discussion of indigenous political strategies--a realm that need not abide by binary logics--reconfigures how to think about and question modern politics, while pushing her readers to think beyond "hybridity" and toward translation, communication that accepts incommensurability, and mutual difference as conditions for ethnography to work.
