ISBN: 9780822323211 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Organized in the mid-1970s as a means of communal protection against livestock rustling and general thievery in Peru s rugged northern mountains, the rondas campesinas (peasants who make the rounds) grew into an entire system of peasant justice and one of the most significant Andean social movements of the late twentieth century.
