There are no translations available at this moment. Thanks for your comprehension.

The Andeanist community may be interested to hear about the upcoming double-session on Andean pastoralism that we´ve organized for the American Anthropological Association meetings in San Francisco in November this year. The schedule, according to the preliminary program, is pasted below. Abstracts aren't linked on the AAA website yet but it looks like clicking on the titles below will link to abstracts as the conference approaches. We hope people can make it to San Francisco!

Best regards, Nico and José
