▼ The Temporary Agricultural Worker to Canada (TAWC) project was introduced in 2003 with the purpose of recruiting Guatemalan migrants to fill seasonal labour voids in Canada. Workers contracted through TAWC directives have received minimal scholarly attention, given the infancy of the program and the substantial focus on Mexican migrants recruited through the Canadian Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program. This dissertation illuminates the transnational political realities of Guatemalans by examining the impact that circular migration has on the subaltern migrant body. Fieldwork was conducted in two sites, the first St. Rémi in Québec, the second Santiago Sacatepéquez in Guatemala. Research findings underscore the transnational nature of the flow of hegemonic (discipline, insecurity, oppression, exploitation) and counter hegemonic (empowerment, liberation, collectiveness, security) political ideas and activities between the spaces traversed by migrants. The study engages a multi-faceted ethnographic design in order to explore the spatiality of political consciousness, assessing Guatemalan migrant responses to a range of ideas and activities imparted by agencies of power. These include both the Canadian and Guatemalan governments, the International Organization for Migration, and le Fondation des entreprises pour le recrutement de la main-d'oeuvre étrangère (FERME) along with a range of transnational supporting allies. Nevertheless, the decision to (dis)engage in certain politicized conduct is largely dependent on the human agency of Guatemalan migrants, as they find the means to cope with the mounting pressures of seasonal migration. A political economy perspective allows me to engage three debates that theoretically frame the transnational political identity of Guatemalan migrants. These are: (1) processes of political transnationalism; (2) neoliberal agenda and mindsets; and (3) migrant political consciousness, with a particular emphasis on Foucauldian concepts of governmentality and Gramscian notions of hegemony and consciousness. By engaging the (re)shaping of transnational political identity as a phenomenon influenced by agencies of power, and more importantly, the human agency of subaltern migrants, my dissertation emphasizes migrant (un)willingness to embrace and/or suppress certain resources that restructure political consciousness and political action. The versatility and fluidity of transmigrant political identity reveal that the distinct realities of individuals are constructed by travelling back and forth, as seasonal labourers, between Guatemala and Canada.

▼ Guatemala ha logrado una estabilidad económica y, paradójicamente, no ha logrado mejorar la calidad de vida de sus habitantes. Se requiere analizar qué hacer para aumentar la posibilidad de que los seres humanos salgan adelante y este estudio se enfoca en la educación, específicamente la educación superior, como una propuesta para esa movilidad social. Para ello se basa en dos interrogantes: ¿cuál es la razón principal por la que un joven de entre 18 y 25 años, graduado de secundaria, decide no seguir su formación en la universidad? Y, ¿una política pública, que consiste en ayuda financiera no reembolsable, podría superar esas barreras de ingreso y coadyuvar a que el joven graduado de secundaria decida inscribirse en la educación superior? En este trabajo se hace un recorrido por las dificultades del sistema educativo guatemalteco que limita el acceso a los jóvenes a ingresar a la universidad y por las condiciones y los costos que implica ingresar a las diversas universidades del país. Asimismo, se presenta la caracterización de los jóvenes en edad de acceder a la universidad y se evidencia la principal variable que determina la decisión de ingresar o no a la educación superior, ya sea a la pública o privada. El Estado de Guatemala no cuenta con una política pública de financiamiento no reembolsable de la educación superior del país, tanto de becas como de subsidios de matrícula. Además, se carece de una rectoría del sistema de educación superior con una orientación estratégica para la universidad estatal y las privadas, que permita optimizar los escasos recursos con que se cuenta. El subsidio del Estado para la educación superior dado a la universidad estatal es altamente regresivo al recibirlo los no-pobres en un 94% y solo el 6% se distribuye a los pobres que logran acceder a la universidad, beneficiando al quintil superior de la población. Finalmente y a partir de los datos analizados, se arrojan lineamientos de una política pública nacional en financiamiento no reembolsable, destinado a los quintiles inferiores de la población juvenil guatemalteca. Focalizar becas a estudiantes de pocos recursos que logran completar la secundaria, es importante desde el punto de vista de políticas públicas, ya que la falta de acceso a los recursos puede cambiar la decisión de los estudiantes que, aunque tengan mucha capacidad, deciden no continuar su formación superior dado que se les dificulta cubrir los costos directos e indirectos asociados a la misma.

▼ Esta tesis doctoral se ha centrado en el estudio de la escultura y el retablo en Guatemala entre los siglos XVI al XIX, donde la ciudad de Santiago de Los Caballeros (hoy La Antigua Guatemala) jugó un papel fundamental como foco de irradiación del quehacer artístico. Se aborda el tema del entorno social y profesional del artífice, creador de obras escultóricas, en aspectos como su procedencia, nivel de educación, lugar de residencia y de sepultura, organización del taller, características de su clientela, la forma en que se financiaban obras e incluso las sanciones más comunes en caso de incumplimiento. Todo lo anterior con el fin de comprender y valorar mejor los temas que se desarrollan a continuación. A través del análisis de manuscritos, fuentes impresas y bibliografía -donde el libro “Historia de la Imaginería Colonial de Guatemala” del profesor Heinrich Berlin publicado en 1952, ha sido esencial para esta tesis – se ha tratado de cruzar la información con los retablos y esculturas existentes, en un laborioso trabajo de campo para lograr una visión lo más específica posible de la evolución estilística en Guatemala. Además se aportan datos inéditos de los mismos documentos y otros de los archivos del Arzobispado y el de Indias. Las noticias de obras más antiguas las encontramos en torno a 1540 al trasladarse la ciudad al valle de Panchoy y a partir de allí tenemos obras tanto de retablos como esculturas de estilo renacentista. Se menciona la labor de artistas como Quirio Cataño y Pedro de Liendo, así como una introducción al naturalismo con la importación de obras de los Ocampo o de Diego López Bueno en las primeras décadas del siglo XVII, llegando a influenciar en la producción local. En torno a 1680, con el gran proyecto de la construcción de la catedral, a cargo en un inicio del maestro Martín de Andújar –del que ubicamos también obra retablística en Guatemala- encontramos los primeros indicios de la introducción del barroco salomónico con el arribo de artistas principalmente de Oaxaca como Agustín Núñez. Aquí cabe mencionar las creaciones de Alonso de la Paz y Mateo de Zúñiga. A partir del segundo cuarto del siglo XVIII se evidencia la consolidación de lo que hemos llamado “el barroco guatemalteco” porque se desarrollan características propias de esta escuela. Complementando el estudio con su relación con otras artes como las fachadas retablo e incluso con la platería. Se hacen presentes obras por ejemplo de Vicente de la Parra. Posteriormente nos adentramos en la importante producción de finales del siglo XVIII y de todo el siglo XIX -sin olvidar las consecuencias del gran terremoto de 1773 que ocasionó el traslado de la ciudad capital al valle de la Ermita- con obras propias del neoclásico quizás para un grupo más reducido y culto porque en general la piedad popular demandaba, aunque con formas mucho más moderadas, que se continuaran con los cánones barrocos, con la producción de artistas como los Abarca o ya más adentrado el siglo XIX, con Ventura Ramírez o Juan Ganuza. Por último, se intenta ordenar las… Advisors/Committee Members: Ramos Sosa, Rafael (advisor), Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Historia del Arte (affiliation).

El cambio climático es uno de los desafíos más grandes de la Tierra en al Antropoceno. A pesar de los esfuerzos internacionales intergubernamentales en base a la Convención Marco de las Naciones Unidas sobre el Cambio Climático de estabilizar las concentraciones de los gases de efecto invernadero e impedir interferencias antropógenas peligrosas en el sistema climático, un cuarto de un siglo después de Rio un aumento importante en la temperatura promedia anual es considerado inevitable. Aunque la mitigación del cambio climático históricamente ha dominado el debate científico y político, su éxito moderado ha entregado el papel protagonista a la adaptación a los efectos del cambio climático. El hecho de que la adaptación necesita dirigirse no solamente al sistema ecológico, sino también al sistema social y económico añade otro grado de dificultad al logro del objetivo. Por otro lado dicha condición brinda oportunidades precisas para un desarrollo sostenible e integral propulsado por varias disciplinas. Sin embargo, en la mayoría de los casos no es el reto que condena al fracaso, sino nuestra ignorancia de las reglas de juego: La carencia de líneas base de las condiciones ambientales y socioeconómicas de nuestros complejos sistemas socioecológicos, y el desconocimiento de las interacciones que gobiernan su funcionamiento. Este déficit es aún más eminente en países en desarrollo que no se benefician de una amplia capacidad financiera, humana e institucional, y cuyos poblaciones y ecosistemas cuentan con una elevada vulnerabilidad ante el cambio climático. El presente estudio aporta a la creación de conocimiento del sistema socioecológico del altiplano occidental de Guatemala, en particular su población indígena Maya k’iche’ y su cobertura forestal única en el municipio Totonicapán, con el fin de proporcionar oportunidades de adaptación y de un desarrollo sostenible en el futuro.

▼ In post Peace Accords Guatemala, tourism development is engendering new claims and claimants to territory in a climate of land tenure insecurity and enduring inequality. Through ethnographical research, this dissertation explores the territoriality of tourism development through the empirical lens of an archaeological site called Mirador in the Maya Biosphere Reserve. I develop a process-based understanding of territoriality to analyze tourism related struggles over identity, boundary making, land use, heritage claims, and territorial rule at the frontier of state power. In theorizing tourism's territoriality, I argue that the intertwined practices of capitalist spatial colonization and the commodification of place uniquely characterize the industry. I identify five manifestations of tourism's territoriality in the Maya Biosphere: practices of historical and geographical erasure in Mirador tourism imaginaries, territory-based identity production, tourism-enabled practices of enclosure and land dispossession, the "scaling up" of heritage claims through the social construction of global heritage, and the militarization of conservation spaces through tactics of counterinsurgency eco-tourism development.In conceptualizing tourism's territoriality, this project contributes to the fields of political ecology, critical tourism studies, political geography, and spatial theories of territory. At the chapter level, analytical contributions include analyses of identity formation in contemporary Guatemala, the role of tourism development in driving the global land grab, how implicit ideas of scale in global heritage discourses usurp local claims to natural and cultural resources, and the revival of counterinsurgency methods in the making of paradisiacal places. In Guatemala's booming post-war tourism sector, this dissertation argues that ongoing struggles over territory are taking deceptively innocuous forms of national park creation, world heritage designation, and environmental conservation.

▼ This thesis is an investigation of the evolution of economic inequality in Guatemala. High inequality and poverty levels in the country are two widespread social problems, almost defining characteristics of Guatemalan society. Although some research has been done in an attempt to understand poverty, far less has been done with respect to inequality. Aggregated measures of both phenomena do not reveal much change, although it may well be the case that different and countervailing forces are acting behind summary indices, providing a misleading interpretation of stagnation over time. Using data from two living standards measurement surveys (LSMS) in 2000 and 2006, this investigation applies a household income generation model and a series of microeconomic decomposition techniques in order to explain some of the factors driving economic inequality. Those factors are grouped into three types of effects: price, occupational choice and endowment. The results show that three structural conditions segment the population: geographical location, gender and ethnic origin. However, they also indicate that over the course of six years, those characteristics have reduced their negative influence on the standard of living of the population. In other words, over time they show a mild equalizing effect, probably the result of changes in market conditions, state actions or a combination of both. Regarding the three types of effects identified above, the results show how market returns to individual attributes (price effects), such as years of education, can act as an equalizing force, particularly for women in the 4th and 5th quintiles of the distribution. Occupational choice effects reflect changes in the structure of the labour force, moving from the inactive to the self-employed, thus generating higher household income. Endowment effects, simulated as changes in household size and stock of education of income earners, are consistent with mild changes in fertility rates and higher public investment in education. Finally, the results leave ample room for social policy. However, for that to occur it will be necessary to increase the capacity of the State to intervene in specific areas, thus requiring higher government revenues while also addressing other institutional challenges such as better targeting of social programs, improving the quality of primary health and education, and investing in secondary schools and hospitals. A third round of LSMS survey would help corroborate whether observed reductions in expenditure and income inequality are truly a trend or just a temporary phenomena or simply a statistical artefact.

▼ Many settlements in the Guatemala City Metropolitan Area (GCMA) face significant possibilities of fatalities due to their location in steep ravines that are subjected to periodic large-scale landslides. Since the housing in the at-risk areas is relatively low-cost, it is typically cost-prohibitive to mitigate the risk to an acceptable level. Thus, permanent relocation is the only truly viable option to ensure the long-term safety of everyone. However, there are several economic and social obstacles impeding successful implementation of a relocation program. Still, there are many other landslide risk reduction techniques (such as retaining walls, community drainage systems, and alert systems) implemented by government organizations and non-profit groups. These techniques are helpful in landslide risk reduction (LRR), but residents are only partially involved in the entire process. Therefore, increasing residents’ education and ability to better understand their level of landslide risk will help with LRR. Residents can integrate and collaborate with the government organizations and non-profits implementing mitigation techniques and of even greater benefits, the education and ability for residents to understand their landslide risk can provide additional avenues for LRR not otherwise achievable. The purpose of this research is to develop a landslide-risk-rating-system (LRRS) that can be used by trained residents to better understand their risk (similar to other landslide or rockfall hazard-rating systems commonly used by department of transportation organizations). The focus of this LRRS is only on small-scale landslides (typically the size of a house or less) because evaluating the risk of large-scale landslides is too complicated to be done by trained non-technical experts. The LRRS asks questions related to landslide risk that can be used to calculate a landslide risk score to indicate the relative level of risk. The LRRS was created by reviewing published literature documenting other landslide rating systems and incorporating similar factors correlated with landslide risk. Then, forty sites were visited in the GCMA to inventory the factors at houses that are vulnerable to landslides in order to evaluate which factors were most useful for predicting the relative risk. The predicted risk scores were compared to ranked risk scores estimated by the author to ensure the results were valid. Statistical analysis identified which of these factors best-predicted landslide risk. These factors include slope angle, slope height, strength of slope material or material type, aperture of cracks, spatial impact, largest probable landslide volume, largest probable percentage of the living area that could be impacted from a landslide, and total person-hours a living area is occupied per day. Future work should focus on the transformation of the tool into a more user-friendly format for use by residents, the implementation process, and monitoring plan.

▼ In this dissertation, I study the role of religion and public ritual in the responses of native communities facing the expansion of colonial powers. Through a combination of archaeological excavations and archival research on early colonial Maya, I explore how religious change in a small Mam Maya community offered a framework for a negotiation between external innovations and traditional ritual practices during the introduction of Christianity in the sixteenth century. Based on archaeological and historical data collected at the Late Postclassic (AD 1250-1550) site of Chiantla Viejo, Guatemala, I show that the mediation between native pre-Hispanic forms of ritual and external influences unfolded not solely in hidden contexts as traditionally argued, but mainly in open public spaces. I found that Chiantla Viejo experienced a short but strong revival of the indigenous traditional religion in the years following the Spanish military conquest of the area. This revival had a clear public material manifestation in the reconstruction of the site after it was put to fire in AD 1530 by the Mam Maya. Furthermore, I demonstrate that the mechanism of religious revival was employed by the Mam Maya of Chiantla Viejo as a strategy of survival after the Spanish conquest. This strategy had antecedents in the similar responses that Maya groups enacted when they faced the conquest and colonization of the K’iche’ Maya across the highlands, just a few decades before the arrival of the Spanish conquistadors. At Chiantla Viejo, such mechanism meant the adoption of features and forms of public ritual architecture from Zaculeu, the largest ceremonial center in the Selegua River basin and one of the sites with the longest occupation in the Maya highlands (ca. AD 500-1525). The conclusions of this dissertation emphasize the pivotal importance of public spaces for communal gatherings as arenas of religious transformation, and further prove that the adoption of Christianity in highland Maya communities during early colonial times was not drastic, but left room for negotiation, continuity, and dissent.

▼ The Temporary Agricultural Worker to Canada (TAWC) project was introduced in 2003 with the purpose of recruiting Guatemalan migrants to fill seasonal labour voids in Canada. Workers contracted through TAWC directives have received minimal scholarly attention, given the infancy of the program and the substantial focus on Mexican migrants recruited through the Canadian Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program. This dissertation illuminates the transnational political realities of Guatemalans by examining the impact that circular migration has on the subaltern migrant body. Fieldwork was conducted in two sites, the first St. Rémi in Québec, the second Santiago Sacatepéquez in Guatemala. Research findings underscore the transnational nature of the flow of hegemonic (discipline, insecurity, oppression, exploitation) and counter hegemonic (empowerment, liberation, collectiveness, security) political ideas and activities between the spaces traversed by migrants. The study engages a multi-faceted ethnographic design in order to explore the spatiality of political consciousness, assessing Guatemalan migrant responses to a range of ideas and activities imparted by agencies of power. These include both the Canadian and Guatemalan governments, the International Organization for Migration, and le Fondation des entreprises pour le recrutement de la main-d'oeuvre étrangère along with a range of transnational supporting allies. Nevertheless, the decision to (dis)engage in certain politicized conduct is largely dependent on the human agency of Guatemalan migrants, as they find the means to cope with the pressures of seasonal migration. A political economy perspective allows me to engage three debates that theoretically frame the transnational political identity of Guatemalan migrants. These are: (1) processes of political transnationalism; (2) neoliberal agenda and mindsets; and (3) migrant political consciousness, with a particular emphasis on Foucauldian concepts of governmentality and Gramscian notions of hegemony and consciousness. By engaging the (re)shaping of transnational political identity as a phenomenon influenced by agencies of power, and more importantly, the human agency of subaltern migrants, my dissertation emphasizes migrant (un)willingness to embrace and/or suppress certain resources that restructure political consciousness and political action. The versatility and fluidity of transmigrant political identity reveal that the distinct realities of individuals are constructed by travelling back and forth, as seasonal labourers, between Guatemala and Canada.

▼ Textile production on back strap looms in the Maya region of Central America has continued uninterrupted for over three thousand years. Forming the backbone of a rich cultural tradition, the craftwork of Maya women remains an indigenous tradition in the Maya region to survive the Spanish conquest and subsequent waves of violence. For Q'eqchi' women of the Alta Verapaz of Guatemala, textile production not only plays an important role in continuing indigenous culture, but also contributes to family and community economic life. As artefacts of cultural production, Maya textiles are integral to collections across the world, and museums and academic institutions have sought after them since at least the mid-nineteenth century. In many cases, these collected textile objects have been divorced from their context. The names of the artists, and even the communities in which they were produced, have been forgotten or unrecorded. Contemporary groups and communities of Maya weavers often remain unaware that historic textile objects from their culture and communities are being held in museums in the United States, Europe and elsewhere. This PhD research hinges on encounters between contemporary indigenous weavers in the Q'eqchi' communities around Cobán in the Alta Verapaz of Guatemala and historic museum textiles by means of the visual repatriation of picb'il textiles; specifically, high-quality photographs of textiles in the collections of the University of Cambridge, the University of Oxford, and the University of California, Berkeley. This has resulted in weavers not only experiencing what they described during interviews as connections to their communities' past and ancestors, but also reproducing lost textile patterns by copying the patterns present in museum textiles, which they did not recognise as being woven by modern weavers. Relying on extensive interviews with weavers and local community members, I juxtapose the history of picb'il weaving in the region with the role that master weavers, or weaving teachers, play in the continuation of picb'il affecting weaving in local communities. The thesis elucidates how national or international markets and vendors affects the ability of communities to continue relying on textiles as part of the women's income, as well as engaging with the role that textile collectors and museum buyers played in regional textile production in the past. The first chapter is a short history of the region in which I worked. The Q'eqchi' weavers I interviewed live in a complex and difficult political environment, one whose history is violent. This chapter seeks to situate the history of picb'il within the history of the Alta Verapaz as experienced and perceived by my informants. It includes a specific history of two of the communities in which I worked most closely with informants. The second chapter covers the methodology used during the course of the PhD, including the research design process that led to the adoption of the methodology and the challenges that arose in the field. This necessitated…
