Migrar o perecer perfila la Australia que se esconde tras el brillo de las olas en la piel bronceada de los jóvenes surfistas. Los protagonistas de este reportaje abandonaron el lugar donde nacieron y emprendieron el viaje a Australia con la esperanza de labrarse un futuro mejor. Ellos son la historia viva de este país joven moldeado a base de oleadas migratorias. A los primeros colonos británicos les siguieron italianos, griegos y españoles, vietnamitas, libaneses, indios y chinos.Hoy Australia es uno de los países con más diversidad cultural, lingüística y religiosa del mundo. Entre sus ciudadanos se cuentan más de trescientas nacionalidades, más de doscientos países de origen y más de doscientas lenguas. Un tercio de los habitantes nació en otro país y un 45 % son hijos de inmigrantes.Sobre el papel, Australia parece un experimento migratorio que ha triunfado. En realidad, es el laboratorio de pruebas para un fenómeno global, el del multiculturalismo, que sigue en fase de ensayo.Los nueve retratos de Migrar o perecer hablan de racismo, islamofobia, manipulación mediática y marginación. También de individuos que trabajan duro, que luchan por salir adelante, por dejar huella en un país que forja día a día su identidad.

In the wake of tensions between modern and postmodern sensibilities, what larger directions now emerge in cultural anthropology? In this major work, Bruce Knauft takes stock of important recent initiatives in cultural and critical theory. By combining critical reviews and ethnographic engagements with fresh readings of major figures and approaches, the work develops a larger vantage point for considering the dispersing influence of practice theories, postmodernism, cultural studies, postcolonial studies, modern/post-positive feminism, and multicultural criticisms.

Originally published in Spanish in 1970, Watunna is the epic history and creation stories of the Makiritare, or Yekuana, people living along the northern bank of the Upper Orinoco River of Venezuela, a region of mountains and virgin forest virtually unexplored even to the present. The first English edition of this book was published in 1980 to rave reviews. This edition contains a new foreword by David Guss, as well as Mediata, a detailed myth that recounts the origins of shamanism.
