“Soñé que iba a correr sangre”. Baguazo, memorias de violencia y recuerdos oníricos entre los awajún de la Amazonia peruana

Abstract

The Awajún of the Alto Marañón, a region in the northeast of the Peruvian Amazon, were the protagonists of an environmental conflict, known as "Baguazo", in which they clashed with various agents of the Peruvian state (June 2009). They are currently involved in the elaboration of an oral memory of this painful experience: stories that end up bringing together recent events with those of their historical past. The analysis of ethnographic material gathered over a period of almost ten years will allow the observation of how this group is living the current process of re-elaboration of the emotions experienced at that time, which symbolic and descriptive content they choose and how they transmit them.
