In Southeastern Peru on a state reserve for "people in voluntary isolation," deaths from poison arrows are easy to document, yet it is unclear how many "uncontacted", nomadic people have died from shotgun blasts and contact with outsiders because of their lack of immunity to disease. Chainsaws and Arrows gives a glimpse into a complex struggle for the rights to the last of this wilderness. From the unchecked invasion of protected territory, to extreme poverty and social injustice, this investigation by Isabel Sande Frandsen and Adam M. Goldstein uncovers a web of corruption that stretches from the upper reaches of the Las Piedras and Tahuamanu Rivers all the way to the Congress in Lima. Written by Anonymous See less
