      title = {Transforming ethnicity : youth and migration in the  Southern Ecuadorian Andes /},
      abstract = {This book explores how global migration transforms local  dynamics in the communal life of indigenous peoples in  southern Ecuador. At its heart, the focus is on Caar, a  region marked by more than seven decades of migratory flows  to the United States. Caar features one of the areas of  greatest human mobility in the entire Andean Region.  Drawing on data from in-depth interviews and dialogue-based  workshops with indigenous youths, the author shows how  migratory processes and forms of self-representation have  challenged the idea that ethnic identity is tied to fixed  cultural patterns. He further shows how youths  transnational experiences reconfigure generational  differences within indigenous communities. In analyzing how  transnational life, adultcentrism, gender power dynamics,  and institutional discourses intersect in the production of  indigenous youths subjectivities, this book provides an  innovative approach to the studies of indigenous peoples  and migration. Jorge Daniel Vsquez is a Doctor in  Education, a Ph.D. candidate in Sociology at the University  of Massachusetts-Amherst, and an upcoming Postdoctoral  Fellow in the School of International Service at American  University.},
