| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Although indigenous community members in Peru have been described as jointly owning and equitably using land without intra-group problems, the facts are different. In the community under study, the members divided their community’s land among themselves in 1997, and discord occurred over the sizes and boundaries of plots. In 2016, a group mostly from the younger generation, demanding their own plots, proposed a re-division of the community’s land. In this study, the sizes of some plots were measured and the inequality of the allotment of plots was verified. One factor behind this dispute was a national policy that liberalized the market for the indigenous community’s land. In addition, there was a difference of opinion about what should be considered official land documents. However, the study concludes that, at present, the people maintain the community by keeping outsiders at bay through insisting that members do not sell their land to anyone not of the community
