..... PEACE TALK ABOUT CONTINUING WITH THE COUNTRY SCHOOL POLICY ON HERITAGE AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL FIELD SCHOOLS

Continuing the conversation - debate initiated in a previous post, the archaeologist Maria de los Angeles Muñoz Collazos, Director of Research Institute of Anthropological and Archaeological Museum of the Universidad Mayor de San Simón , sent us these comments about what was discussed about the "Farmer Field Schools" to national regulations and advances in Cochabamba for improving the management of the Archaeological Heritage:

"I welcome the exchange that took place in the Facebook move to this wider space, because allows me to express some opinions and proposals from Cochabamba.
agree with Carlos Dante and that continuation of the field school and research, then do not help to change the status of "incipient Bolivian Archaeology" and Dante in which interpretative problems and limitations have nothing to do with them. But I do not agree on some central conception, ethnocentric (and some attitudes of internal colonialism as well, why not), that little favor they do to our archeology and institutionalization.
perceive this (and this from some previous comments of the blog and the latest news in the press), when the problem becomes practically Tiahuanaco UNAR = Tiahuanacu, when Carlos says "SALP not accept undergraduate field schools in Bolivia "(SALP = Bolivia), where archaeologists investigating La Paz wander through the different departments (with foreigners and with and without field schools), ignoring existing institutions (or grumbling from certain regulations that are required for those) or good people concerned about our heritage, or when Dante says "that" the university as an alternative is little or no consistent "and that" there is a pole of anything now, the UMSA?, UMSA = Bolivia?, or when speaking professionals (La Paz?), "most of which are on the hunt for archaeological projects from contract to survive."
I admit that some of the latter are real problems of Archaeology of Bolivia, but I think they are especially La Paz, which must be added, among others, factionalism among several institutions that have to do with it, it really does not we can speak of an archeology of each Department, should rather help to create. Moreover
and returning to the issues that apparently we are all concerned, I would see no deep contradiction between the positions of the debate, and instead I am delighted this alert on our own institutional situation, I believe that that sense "the incipient Bolivian Archaeology" by not being so contaminated, it could result in a strength that must underpin all.
Dante's position is not radical, it is worth, and apparently is not against the field school and insists that "what is it that these (and other) projects to spend at least some basic requirements ..., set the rules of the game, where you respect the rights of all and properly weighted powers and responsibilities. " Meanwhile
Sonia defends "all students interested in research should be welcome in Bolivia and" supervised "(according to basic rules, I guess).
While in a sense is true Carlos, the University has limited capabilities (funding for research, laboratories), in many others, has enormous potential not exploited just by professionals themselves. Not only "is normatively possibilities ... (of) to participate in the management of archaeological research in any institution, not only Tiwanaku ", but that institutional support is crucial, among many others - to generate and promote serious political research that ultimately could result in national policies. 3 years ago I wrote to you and Claudia Rivera with all these ideas to a forum together, but never materialized as we had to walk independently.
In this sense, the "University" of Cochabamba, with years of experience representing the State in the archaeological and be subject to both the "U" (springs that allow us to display more fully from the "periphery" of national problems of our science) and a position clear ideological respect to internal and external scientific colonialism and the abuses that have been subjected for many years, in early 2009 we developed "than others, of a Protocol External Research Projects, which signed up as the paper" Towards a greater institutionalization and a more dignified archeology. Research Project Protocol of INIAM-UMSS "(with the corresponding theoretical pre), last year at the Second Congress of Bolivian Archaeology and unfortunately for reasons that some people very well know, I was obliged to withdraw and referring to Carlos about the interventions and the benefit of CV Co-Chairs, the need for an Academic Council and other issues, also withdrew the paper "Reflections on the Social Uses of Archaeology and the role of the archaeologist" I very much regret this situation, it just took them for a constructive debate, which we have allowed almost a year ago and started this discussion.
But this is not biography, but much deeper issues and proposals, I tell you that yesterday I uploaded to our new website www.museo.umss.edu.bo mentioned protocol ( Please do not criticize our fledgling site, same as we are under construction and we will gradually spawning), so that, should they see, "can be a starting point in all that we have to build toward institutionalization (and dignity) of the practice of our science and as a response to Dante, of course! you can do many things together ourselves, for our country. The parts highlighted in red in our protocol, I did not delete, as they were added in late 2009, but this protocol has already worked last year and has been signed by Tim Mc Andrews, Claudia Rivera and Christian Isendahl-Walter Sanchez.
Moreover, I disagree with Sonia in the universities are in charge of archaeological issue should be a strong national body that regulates it, but an instance that we seriously propose, Dante, I think a small Academic Council assist with this is not so difficult to visualize, composed of professionals with a minimum degree of skill, and / or representative institutions and relevant sectors, to assess such parties in our protocol (without this being understood as we want to impose) are called "To start the project" and "previous output field, then for example, Co-Director appointed by the Council, in coordination with it will monitor "field" and "at end of field, so, end, together, together with the ombudsmen of this new institution, evaluate the entire project, including "a compulsory" and season. The institution also regulate (for example) to archaeologists that while studying in La Paz, are from another department and to exercise, according to the Constitution-in Prefectures and / or local governments in their department, at least until there are no institutions specific department, thereby encouraging a coordinated and supervised decentralization, because anyway these projects would be evaluated and archaeologists may be the respective Co-Chairs. All this as humble suggestions and thousands of seeing things that could go ...., again if you believe. A time to ask
apologize for the length of this writing, I remind you that not good to leave all the State and / or authorities, which is not good policy development unilaterally, it will become sterile, that the issues before us are not just shysters or academicians, but go for the epistemological and why not repeat that ideology. "

Regarding the comment of Dante (see below comments),

At the risk of this becoming a dialogue, let me say again that the University System's "National", for example, from the INIAM-UMSS, the Plan of Management and Director to present to my candidacy, including "Master of Anthropology: Plural Identities in Bolivia", which structure, curriculum, etc., we are already building for some months, with members of the "Permanent Seminar in Anthropology", which establishes a number of researchers in early 2009 as a space for reflection and debate, and that works permanently as its name suggests, we plan to launch Masters next year. Dante also and I am glad that mention ", later the plan includes training in Archaeology, in terms of-NO to open a career as such, is not to exclude competition or even less-UMSA, but two programs (two-or three-year) special International Degree in Archaeology (not free the labor market, dozens of professionals in the situation you referred previously), designed with teachers in Bolivia, Mexico, Peru, Chile, Colombia and Argentina hope, and scholars who have done remarkable work in our country and with students (hopefully) across the country.
These are, from the UMSS (of the University System), the purposes short and medium term, which, if there are no major obstacles and financing arrangements permitting - we would also count for this concrete form, with the help of all of you and professionals who in good faith, wish to become full participants.

: BUSINESS? OR A WAY TO FINANCE THE WORK IN ARCHAEOLOGY

Since Alan Kolata Bolivian sites open to foreign exploration and research in Bolivia, numerous archaeological projects have developed works in the main archaeological sites Bolivia: Lukurmata, Tiwanaku, Pajchiri, Chiripa, Khonkho Wankaner, Samaipata Wankarani, Jewel, etc., using it - in most cases - students post - graduate. It is only since 1998 that at the request of the project undertaken by the University of Pittsburgh start-called "Country Schools" to promote the arrival of newly admitted students to this university to make their first experiences of excavation. Years later he would implement the unfortunate Harvard School of Golf at Tiwanaku and Country schools Charazani Obrajes (Oruro) and Parotani lgraduados led by archaeologists at the University of Pittsburgh Alconini, Baule, Mc Andrews and Rivera, respectively.

Dan Sandweiss has recently published a series of tenders such schools, which charged $ 6,000 per student for a 6-week experience, which in some cases includes tours of different places, sites and museums in the country.

One of these schools is that of Christine Baule (University of Hawaii), archaeologist graduate of the University of Pittsburgh, whose school is promoted from a web site that indicates that such experiences had been occurring since 2005 with support of students and Bolivian archaeologists. Finding out a bit, we learn that Baule did not have the permission of the National Archaeological Unit to implement this school, or for that now advertises on the Internet.

recently published facebook a sentence stating that " The SALP not accept undergraduate field schools in Bolivia " which resulted in an interesting debate on whether to permit or regulate the work of such schools in the country field . Then reissued some of the most important opinions presented in this virtual space:

Sonia Aviles (Bolivian archaeologist graduated from the Universidad Mayor de San Andrés who currently makes a doctoral course in Italy): "I do not agreement in Bolivia practically no archeology, I doubt everything, even the few dating that have become important sites like Tiwanaku, for closing the doors to scholars, even if students are interested, you can do something together to prevent injury, but shutting research possibilities does not seem good for a fledgling archeology almost nonexistent as ours "

Angelo Dante (Bolivian archaeologist graduated from Universidad Mayor de San Andrés is now culminating in his doctoral thesis at the University of Stanford): Dear Sonia, this is not "block" initiatives / opportunities for research, as you seem to suggest. than it is that these (and other) projects spend at least some basic requirements in terms of their subsequent preservation and conservation of sites (And exhumed material!). If your objection is about the emerging Bolivian archeology, as well, the fact that schools keep coming field in which there is little chance of participation - by constraints that make money available only to "interested students," they can afford the cost of the same, well above the 1.000 dollars, by the way - of Bolivian students (or professionals), will not help much to change the situation. As you say, you could do something together, yes. But to set you mean? considering that the institutions in charge of the case, or the same type UNAR seem to pay little attention University or be completely indifferent to this type of, say, situations. In fact there are a lot of things you could do, without going too far, in addition to providing travel seeking familiar with archeology and their methods to their curious and intrepid students, eager to experience these schools should provide to include a group of students bolivianos (much needed practice) within their team, of course exempt from such payments for any student beyond astronomical figure sounds. On the other hand, I'd ask Carlos, as the company may achieve SALP promote legislation and regulations absent and highly required in this regard, especially now that, as you see in the news, it is in a process UNAR crisis ? There are some options? This crisis UNAR institutional, of course, has to do with what you, Sonia, say, little attention of state archeology, insufficient incentives for research among professionals, most of which are on the hunt for Archaeology projects contract in order to survive (and other more than just survive, of course), professional exile - for the same reasons - have to find alternatives in other places ... etc. etc. In short, the discussion is wide.

Carlos Lemuz : agree with Dante, field schools, with students first-year junior will not report anything to the development Archaeology of Bolivia. Archeological Heritage Boliviano this file system employed in the information must obtain and submit to the state in exchange for destroying the stratigraphic record or better material culture. If this information is not obtained properly and not deliver quality reports, the passage of such interventions have benefited only the Hp or the Director and at little or no archaeological or heritage value boliviano.Creo state that one must first enforce existing legislation that prevents these schools can operate with minimal staff without the knowledge to make interventions in archaeological sites and then look to change this rule for a much finer and better articulated and instrumented that considers the lessons we have learned in recent years. this requires the participation of all. That's what I think Zulma should be called "Clean and tidy up"

Sonia Aviles : And what is the Scientific Council to assess who is capable of doing research or not Bolivia? That is the crux of the issue, and while that scientific advice is not as we are in a deadlocked situation. Continued by stating that any student interested in research should be welcome in Bolivia and supervised.

Carlos Lemuz : I do not think anything has indicated on a "Scientific Council", or that students can not come to investigate what it is that any project that comes to Bolivia to meet certain requirements, which comply with current regulations. In the future will be to refine these rules and establish requirements for "field schools." I personally think that those who come to investigate archaeological field methods, particularly should be familiar with these and should prove through documents provided by their universities in a specialized curriculum. Let anyone come to dig is not only impractical but also violates the basic rules and various principles of our State Constitution.

respect your insistence, but I see that can be sustainable

Maribel Pérez (Archaeologist graduated from Universidad Mayor de San Andrés, now completes a Ph.D. at the University of Pittsburg) : The radical measures never last, partly agree with Sonia, but without encouraging "field school adventure" we want to continue doing research in Bolivia, but within the framework of law and order and within a work plan controlled by the for both local authorities and the state and supported by field managers at the end are the ones that come forward after each season field.

Angelo Dante: personally do not see anything radical to try to establish the ground rules of academic competition in itself to an unequal and outdated legislation that cries out to be reviewed and adapted to the times. It would be only right that these schools the field - precisely because of its character education - are organized (and hopefully design nied) with the participation of Bolivian professionals, and beyond will benefit students who can afford to cover expenses of participation in these (and many times end up hating doing archeology, having had to withstand certain conditions of their stay-poverty .- etc., even to deplore them without recognizing the power relations that produce them, that is, without a minimum anthropological sense) can also be beneficial in the professional training of students who do not enjoy these conditions. I think just that, providing the opportunity to choose a "field experience" which certainly benefit (academically and, why not say, economically), they can also offer the possibility of access to knowledge, usually restricted in our universities ? Contrary to what some may interpret, I'm not against field schools, not concede the possibility that they do not do more than reproduce the mechanisms of exclusion to knowledge based on the simple fact of having or not economic access. Also, I think it is high time that archaeological research projects, especially those overseas, meet some basic guidelines seeking precisely to reinforce the development of the discipline in the pais.Tus comments, Sonia, opened many most points at the debate that simply vote in favor of research. The last thing sounds great, in a liberal perspective that always comes under rules of law and order, incidentally, is precisely the challenge of these regulations, often outdated and obsolete or inadequate, which for many people does 'radical'. The issue is certainly complex, with or without scientific advice (those who settle for? scientific committee who would choose that? etc. etc. is the same as having co-directors of field than ever do / not do anything) and even now is more complex than UNAR is going through probably the worst crisis in years ... something perhaps necessary. Personally though, I'm convinced that having more research that is done in this field school will not help to improve - what you call - "non-existent and emerging archeology" the country. My apologies for the extended text.

Carlos I must say, however, that perhaps they must expand your view as to how the SALP SALP company intends to boost the revision (and hopefully change) of legislation and obsolete rules and the insertion of these and other issues absent but necessary? What are the options?

Sonia Aviles : The University for example is a center scientist who must be strengthened, competitions where they have to prevail experience, training, publications

Tiwanaku has to be in the university administration by archeology career with a suitable laboratory with access to students and teachers and researchers to coordinate the projects are nacioneles or foreign.

Carlos Lemuz : Dear Sonia: The University has limited capabilities, although legislation is in possibilities, thanks to strategic alliances, to participate in the management of archaeological research in any institution, not only Tiwanaku. All universities, museums and even departmental and municipal governments are empowered to promote and protect archaeological and cultural heritage within their jurisdictions. Departmental governments can do from the creation of research institutes (which is within their powers from the Decentralization Act) and more with the current CPE. On the other hand, the municipal governments have similar powers, but they can act on it, particularly, that have the authority for this. Experiences of using these powers they can be seen in the Municipality of La Paz (Steps 2007 and 2008), Santa Cruz (prefecture), Oruro, and somehow Chuqisaca in Potosi. The University (UMSA) should be updated to keep up the challenges and new approaches with which to see and address the topic of material culture and archaeological and cultural Parimonio.

As Maribel, I agree with Dante that are not radical (lately this term is being used as a synonym for extremist and a very distorted sense), even if they were, depends on the context in which they are applied. for the current case, I think it's just better define the rules of the game, where you respect the rights of all and properly weighted functions and responsibilities. The issue of project management and their responsibilities have been poorly raised and poorly supervised, which is why there has been very serious deviations, such as cases of the Universities of Pennsylvania, Harvard, Pittsburgh and even Chicago, whose results they can delve into the history of Bolivian Archaeology late last century and beginning of this .

Angelo Dante: Dear Sonia, let me be ñalarte something I see as a profound contradiction in your comments. In your first post, you you said: "I do not agree, practically no archeology Bolivia, I doubt everything, even the few that have made dating sites like Tiwanaku importance." I think the thinking about college as an alternative is little or no part consistente.Coincidiendo your skeptical perspective, I doubt the university and, unfortunately, I think that is a hub of anything right now ... (Little update of the teaching staff, very few publications recognized in academia, research almost nonexistent due to limited human and economic resources, lack of laboratories, etc.) That would have to and could be, if - no doubt - but I think when that institution still lacks many things .

Sonia Aviles : There is no contradiction: the few facts we have are quite questionable, or you will feel satisfied with the concept Mollo culture for example? On the other hand, if no reinforced the academisismo not solved anything, you go from pan to fire .

Angelo Dante: just want to say I think you're confusing a few things: 1. I think the problems and limitations of interpretation of our cultural history (Mollo Mollo or not, or not P Pacajes acaja, etc. etc.) has nothing to do with whether or not field schools, 2. I am convinced that the treatment of problems beyond the strictly academic discipline, and 3. one of the ways to overcome these shortcomings is to think of policies to promote serious research (which is needed to regulate the field schools and others), which, among other things, means that we must be ourselves we begin to provide solutions to problems and do not assume attitudes of dependency
