Acerca deste livro eletrónico

Rock Gems Spark explores the dynamic relationship between Zuni jewelry, cultural heritage, and economic development within the Zuni Pueblo. The book argues that this art form serves as a vital engine for both economic growth and cultural preservation. It examines how Zuni lapidary work, rooted in pre-Columbian traditions and shaped by interactions with the outside world, has become central to the community's financial well-being. The book offers a unique perspective by combining rigorous economic analysis with cultural sensitivity, highlighting the potential of art as a tool for economic empowerment.

The book progresses systematically, starting with the history and cultural context of Zuni jewelry. It then delves into the specific techniques and materials used, the market forces that drive its production, and the social structures that support the artisans. For example, the book uses economic data to analyze jewelry sales and income levels, alongside qualitative analysis of the cultural values embedded in the art form.

Ultimately, the book examines the long-term implications of Zuni jewelry for the community's economic future and cultural identity, addressing ongoing debates about ethical sourcing and the fair distribution of economic benefits.
