SEAGULL CRAP ISLANDS

This session was on Tupac Amaru, the change of paradigm and the modernisation of Peru. An introduction of Peruvian history, we looked at pre-Hispanic approaches to economy, sociology, family, etc. in relation to colonisation in the 16th century. This led to discussing the process of modernisation and how structures of social inequality are based in history. As well, the change of paradigm in relation to the landscape due to Christianity/Catholicism, which transformed the relationship between nature and God, and allowed for systems of extraction to exist. Towards the end of the session we looked at the relationship of some political and revolutionary movements, ideas and groups from the 1950s onwards with the pre-Hispanic cultures will be presented.
