@article{fds371428,
   Author = {La Serna and M and Starn, O},
   Title = {Beyond the Gonzalo Mystique: Challenges to Abimael Guzmn's
             Leadership inside Peru's Shining Path, 1982-1992},
   Journal = {Latin American Research Review},
   Volume = {58},
   Number = {4},
   Pages = {743-761},
   Year = {2023},
   Month = {January},
   url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/lar.2023.25},
   Abstract = {From the moment it launched its armed insurgency in 1980
             until the death of its former leader in September 2021,
             Peru's Shining Path mesmerized observers. The Maoist group
             had a well-established reputation as a personality cult
             whose members were fanatically devoted to Abimael Guzmán,
             the messianic leader they revered as Presidente Gonzalo.
             According to this narrative, referred to here as the Gonzalo
             mystique, Shining Path zealots were prepared to submit to
             Guzmán's authority and will - no matter how violent or
             suicidal - because they viewed him as a messiah-prophet who
             would usher in a new era of communist utopia. Drawing on
             newly available sources, including the minutes of Shining
             Path's 1988-1989 congress, this article complicates the
             Gonzalo mystique narrative, tracing the unrelenting efforts
             by middle- and high-ranking militants to challenge,
             undermine, disobey, and even unseat Guzmán throughout the
             insurgency. Far from seeing their leader as the undisputed
             cosmocrat of the popular imagination, these militants
             recognized Guzmán for who he was: a deeply flawed man with
             errant ideas, including a dubious interpretation of Maoism,
             problematic military strategy, and a revolutionary path that
             was anything but shining.},

@article{fds362197,
   Author = {Starn, O},
   Title = {Anthropology and the misery of writing},
   Journal = {American Anthropologist},
   Volume = {124},
   Number = {1},
   Pages = {187-197},
   Year = {2022},
   Month = {March},
   url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/aman.13677},
   Abstract = {We have had much excited talk about experimental ethnography
             and new genres of writing. Much of it acknowledges the
             difficulties of putting words to page. But few of the many
             reflections and meditations about ethnography really delve
             into the self-destroying anxiety and misery that can
             accompany writing in anthropology and across the humanities.
             That many of us—from graduate students to tenured
             professors—have suffered bad, sometimes career-ending
             trouble with writing is a public secret. I draw on my own
             struggle with writing and depression to try to make some
             sense of why desperation and worse related to writing are so
             relatively commonplace in anthropology today—and whether
             there's anything we can do about it.},

   Abstract = {This article charts and tries to reckon with the
             relationship between anthropology and Native America. In an
             older time, most American anthropologists made their living
             studying Indians, this almost parasitic disciplinary
             dependence lasting well into the 20th century. Then came the
             turmoil of the 1960s and 1970s, the Red Power movement, and
             a period of estrangement between anthropologists and Native
             America. And now, quite unexpectedly, a tentative
             rapprochement has been taking place, albeit on very
             different terms with native anthropologists often at the
             forefront. This article focuses mostly on the United States,
             although also reflecting on new work about native peoples
             Canada and Latin America. © 2011 by the American
             Anthropological Association.},
