Measuring Group Inequalities
Chapter
Abstract
The previous chapter has been devoted to making two points. First, in Peru ethnic identities are complex and fluid, with divergences between subjective and objective perceptions. Second, they matter. They matter, because people find that they matter, as part of identity, but also as a source of disparate life experiences. Prejudice and discrimination are unpopular realities to admit to in Peru, but they do exist.
