WORKS IN FINAL STAGES, BUT SHORT OF “IN PRESS”:

In Prep. “A Place for the Future”: The Politics of Hurricane Relocation in Santa Catarina Ixtahuacán, Guatemala. (With Walter Adams as junior author/editor.) This manuscript includes 13 undergraduate ethnographies from the years 1998-2001. The editors are, simultaneously, co-authors on all the student papers inside. With the blessing of the university of Oklahoma Press, we are incorporating a new batch of five student ethnographers to document the consequences of the move on its 10 year anniversary. The updated manuscript will be sent to the University of Oklahoma Press in late 2010 or early 2011.

In Prep. Public Health in Three K’iche’-Maya Communities: Local Culture,

National Policy, and Global Risk. (with Walter Adams as senior author/editor).This manuscript includes 13 undergraduate student essays (10 funded by NSF-REU-2004), and will be submitted to the University of Oklahoma Press someday. I doubt this will see the light of day because my colleague, the principal editor, seems unlikely to finish the work.

In Prep. “We are all Siblings, here”: Community as the Idiom of Kinship in

Maya Guatemala. Book for Oklahoma, of course. If this gets done (which I doubt) it will be the last of my volumes from the field school. I frankly do not think this one will make it to publication.

In Prep. Education, Progress, and cultural subversion in Maya Guatemala:

The Dilemmas of Agency in Raising the Next Generation. Book for Oklahoma, of course.
