Unruly Order
Violence forms a part of the daily rhythms of life in the Peruvian Andes - from the "play" of everyday life to the political actions of the Shining Path. This volume explores how violence has affected the daily lives, cultural identities, and political futures of the inhabitants of Peru's southern high provinces. In their case studies, the contributors consider how violence has inflected the historical geography of the region; popular discourses of race, ethnicity, and gender; and the forms of local power that perpetuate landlord rule. Unruly Order makes a powerful argument for extending our understanding of this particular regional culture of violence to the social and cultural processes at work in many other parts of Latin America.

This book reveals a theory that has recently become influential in Indonesian linguistics, namely critical linguistics. Applying an academic approach, critical linguists seek to reveal how power (and violence) is represented through language. Furthermore, they attempt to promote social equality by ensuring that speakers and their speech partners are on level ground in their verbal communications. This book is dedicated to everyone with an interest in linguistics, humanities, and social sciences, as well as all of its readers. It is hoped that this book can theoretically and practically benefit linguists, language teachers, students, translators, and other professionals. In order to create constructive academic dialog and shared truth-seeking, the author would appreciate critical input from readers.
