"This ethnography takes us to remote Amazonian villages, dusty frontier towns, roadside
bargaining sessions, and coffee traders' homes to offer a new view of settlement frontiers
as they are negotiated in linguistic interactions and social relationships. The book
brings together a fine-grained analysis of multilingualism with urgent issues in Latin
America today. It is a timely on-the-ground perspective on the agricultural colonization
of the Amazon, which has triggered an environmental emergency threatening the future
of the planet"
