Remapping the Vertical Archipelago: Mobility, Migration, and the Everyday Labor of Andean Development.

This article analyzes contemporary relationships between mobility and immobility in the Arequipa region in Peru's Southern Andes. It links scholarship in Andean studies on the "vertical archipelago" model--the idea that proximal land at varying altitudes has been exploited to achieve resource divers...

      ab: This article analyzes contemporary relationships between mobility and immobility in the Arequipa region in Peru's Southern Andes. It links scholarship in Andean studies on the "vertical archipelago" model--the idea that proximal land at varying altitudes has been exploited to achieve resource diversity--with current research on the technological and affective dimensions of mobility, migration, and development. I draw on participant observation and an ethnographic corpus of mobility stories-- éóin which people recount the key moments of their life trajectories by chronicling how and where they have moved. This article presents an inquiry into what is specifically Andean about mobility, the people and things it connects, and the lives it configures. I argue that mobility is a form of labor that puts regionally valued notions of simultaneously economic and personal development to work in an Andean space that tasks its users to generate value by moving between elevations.
