Edelman 9319905 This project involves a cultural anthropologist from Yale University in a set of interviews with representatives of peasant organizations from six central American countries: Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala. By getting information about the concerns and experiences of members of these peasant groups, the investigator will evaluate three theories of collective action: the historical-structural, resource mobilization, and new social movement theories. The main hypothesis to be tested is that the peasant movements were influenced more by grass-roots concerns than by foreign donor influences. This research is important because emerging connections between peasant groups, across international borders, makes a regional perspective necessary in understanding political developments in Central America. This project will combine in- depth anthropological knowledge to advance our understanding of issues concerning peasant organizations with increased knowledge of regional differences and similarities in this important area of the hemisphere. ***

Edelman 9319905 该项目涉及耶鲁大学的一位文化人类学家对来自六个中美洲国家的农民组织的代表进行了一系列采访：巴拿马、哥斯达黎加、尼加拉瓜、洪都拉斯、萨尔瓦多和危地马拉。 通过了解这些农民群体成员的关切和经历，研究者将评估三种集体行动理论：历史结构理论、资源动员理论和新社会运动理论。 要检验的主要假设是，农民运动更多地受到草根关注的影响，而不是外国捐助者的影响。 这项研究很重要，因为跨越国际边界的农民群体之间正在出现的联系使得区域视角对于理解中美洲的政治发展变得必要。 该项目将结合深入的人类学知识，加深我们对农民组织问题的理解，同时增加对西半球这一重要地区的区域差异和相似性的了解。 ***
