Panajachel: A Guatemalan Town in Thirty-Year Perspective

Building on Sol Tax's pioneering work of the economic organization of Panajachel in the 1930s, Hinshaw describes this village and analyzes the differences among Indians in other villages responding to environmental and economic changes over the past quarter century. This book offers a unique examination of belief patterns and social relations, and the continuity and change in the society's worldview.
