The Last Shaman: Change in an Amazonian Community - Arakmbut of Amazonian Peru Revised edition
Andrew Gray
The death of a shaman in 1980 had an enormous spiritual and political consequences for one of the Arakmbut communities, resulting in a shift in its social organization from comparative hierarchy to a more egalitarian system. The author uses this case as an illustration to challenge the idea that indigenous peoples live in fossilized, static worlds.
