520 2 "Political authority contains an inherent contradiction.
Rulers must reinforce social inequality and bolster their
own unique position at the top of the sociopolitical
hierarchy, yet simultaneously emphasize social
similarities and the commonalities shared by all.
Political Strategies in Pre-Columbian Mesoamerica explores
the different and complex ways that those who exercised
authority in the region confronted this contradiction. New
data from a variety of well-known scholars in Mesoamerican
archaeology reveal the creation, perpetuation, and
contestation of politically authoritative relationships
between rulers and subjects and between nobles and
commoners. The contributions span the geographic breadth
and temporal extent of pre-Columbian Mesoamerica--from
Preclassic Oaxaca to the Classic Peten region of Guatemala
to the Postclassic Michoacan--and the contributors weave
together archaeological, epigraphic, and ethnohistoric
data. Grappling with the questions of how those exercising
authority convince others to follow and why individuals
often choose to recognize and comply with authority,
Political Strategies in Pre-Columbian Mesoamerica
discusses why the study of political authority is both
timely and significant, reviews how scholars have
historically understood the operation of political
authority, and proposes a new analytical framework to
understand how rulers rule. Contributors include Sarah B.
Barber, Joanne Baron, Christopher S. Beekman, Jeffrey
Brzezinski, Bryce Davenport, Charles Golden, Takeshi
Inomata, Arthur A. Joyce, Sarah Kurnick, Carlo J. Lucido,
Simon Martin, Tatsuya Murakami, Helen Perlstein Pollard,
and Victor Salazar Chavez"--|cProvided by publisher.
