Confronting a debt crisis, the Belizean government has strategized to maximize revenues from lands designated as state property, privatizing lands for cash crop production and granting concessions for timber and oil extraction. Meanwhile, conservation NGOs have lobbied to establish protected areas on these lands to address a global biodiversity crisis. They promoted ecotourism as a market-based mechanism to fund both conservation and debt repayment; ecotourism also became a mechanism for governing lands and people-even state actors themselves-through the market. Mopan and Q’eqchi’ Maya communities, dispossessed of lands and livelihoods through these efforts, pursued claims for Indigenous rights to their traditional lands through Inter-American and Belizean judicial systems. This book examines the interplay of conflicting forms of governance that emerged as these strategies intersected: state performances of sovereignty over lands and people, neoliberal rule through the market, and Indigenous rights-claiming, which challenged both market logics and practices of sovereignty.

This book immerses the reader in the fascinating history of the Mesoamerican peoples, Aztec and Maya in particular. Although these two Mesoamerican cultures developed at very different periods, they present numerous convergences and similarities, from an attraction to ritual ball games to advanced astronomical knowledge and close intertwining of the lives of people and the observation of the sky. Astronomy provided a relationship between religious ideas and daily or seasonal agricultural practices and was therefore of major importance in Mesoamerican societies. This work highlights the importance of time-measuring devices and calendars used for planning of agricultural tasks during the different seasons and sacred rituals. The history of the Aztec and Maya people, strongly associated with legends and myths, is imbued with an astonishing and omnipresent spirituality which is discussed in detail in this work. The pantheon of these two peoples was very extensive, the religion often integrating the heritage of previous cultures in the same way that the empire appropriated the artisanal know-how of the conquered regions. Amply illustrated with photographs by the author and documents from codices, this book is aimed at a very wide audience, from enthusiasts of history, ethnology, and astronomy to students or researchers interested in the pre-Hispanic civilizations of Mexico.
