MAYA: A PEOPLE IN RESISTANCE ‘As I go around the world, people seem surprised that we indigenous people of Central America still exist’, noted the Maya Nobel Peace Prize winner, Rigoberta Menchú in 1992. More than 500 years after the arrival of Europeans in the Americas, the Maya, descendants of one of the greatest pre-Columbian civilizations, not only exist but are thriving. The survival of 21 different Maya speaking peoples in Guatemala is a living testimony to their powers of resistance. In recent years, the brutal conquest of their cities and mountain lands by Spanish conquistadores in the early sixteenth century, has been replayed in all its horrors. In the 1980s alone, the Guatemalan army is conservatively estimated to have murdered 20,000 Maya. Whole villages were wiped out, as at least 120,000 fled into Mexico and 500,000 became internal refugees. The MAYA OF GUATEMALA studies the Maya world in depth: the history, culture, beliefs and responses to the nonindigenous world. The author, Phillip Wearne, a journalist with long experience in Central America, looks at the Maya cultural resurgence of recent years – the product of both fearsome oppression and international geo-political changes of the 1980s. This is a story of indomitable will, a plea for solidarity and international support for a people who want to reclaim their identity as one of the ‘first peoples’ of the world. It is also a story of resistance and resurgence on behalf of the Maya who in the words of one internal refugee ‘want to come out of the mud, the cold, the shadows and into the sunshine’. Please note that the terminology in the fields of minority rights and indigenous peoples’ rights has changed over time. MRG strives to reflect these changes as well as respect the right to self-identification on the part of minorities and indigenous peoples. At the same time, after over 50 years’ work, we know that our archive is of considerable interest to activists and researchers. Therefore, we make available as much of our back catalogue as possible, while being aware that the language used may not reflect current thinking on these issues.

Through historical context, Winter addresses the complexities of indigenous identity, colonial legacy, and emerging national consciousness, skillfully capturing the nuances of everyday life against the backdrop of societal transformation. Nevin O. Winter, an American writer and journalist, was profoundly influenced by his experiences in Central America, including an extensive period spent in Guatemala. His keen observations of the region's diverse peoples and cultures reflect his dedication to social justice and empathy for marginalized communities. Winter's background in journalism and anthropology enabled him to approach the subject matter with both depth and clarity, laying the groundwork for a transformative understanding of Guatemala and its inhabitants. This book is highly recommended for scholars, students, and general readers wishing to gain a deeper understanding of Guatemala'Äôs past and present. Winter'Äôs work is not only a testament to his literary prowess but also an essential resource for those interested in the intersections of culture, history, and identity in Central America.
