CAICEDO FERNANDEZ, Alhena. Peasant Life and Development Model: Configurations of Dispossession/Privilege in Northern Cauca. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2017, vol.53, n.1, pp.59-89. ISSN 0486-6525.

This paper explores peasant life from a qualitative standpoint in order to contribute to the understanding of the different forms of their subalternization in the last decades. The research is centered in the case of black peasants in two towns of the Suarez municipality, in the northern Cauca department: Pureto and La Toma, scenario of multiple forms of dispossession. We propose to analyze the regional configuration as an effect of the ways in which a particular development model has unfolded in the area, articulating different techniques that generate and conceal dispossession, as well as the production of privilege at multiple scales.

Keywords : Afro peasants; dispossession/privilege; illicitness; development model; North of Cauca.
