In The Mayan in the Mall, J. T. Way traces the creation of modern Guatemala from the 1920s to the present through a series of national and international development projects. Way shows that, far from being chronically underdeveloped, this nation of stark contrasts—where shopping malls and multinational corporate headquarters coexist with some of the Western Hemisphere's poorest and most violent slums—is the embodiment of globalized capitalism.
Using a wide array of historical and contemporary sources, Way explores the multiple intersections of development and individual life, focusing on the construction of social space through successive waves of land reform, urban planning, and economic policy. His explorations move from Guatemala City's poorest neighborhoods and informal economies (run predominantly by women) to a countryside still recovering from civil war and anti-Mayan genocide, and they encompass such artifacts of development as the modernist Pan-American Highway and the postmodern Grand Tikal Futura, a Mayan-themed shopping mall ringed by gated communities and shantytowns. Capitalist development, Way concludes, has dramatically reshaped the country's physical and social landscapes—engendering poverty, ethnic regionalism, and genocidal violence—and positioned Guatemala as a harbinger of globalization's future.

Описание: Danger, treachery, and a phalanx of spirit warriors stand between a team of greedy adventurers and the riches buried beneath the ruins of Tikal.At the turn of the 20th century, a German archaeologist named Teobert Mahler began excavations in an ancient Mayan metropolis in the heart of Guatemala. News of the priceless artifacts of gold, jade, emerald, and alabaster he unearthed sent rumors throughout Europe that the untapped burial chambers at Tikal were bottomless vaults with treasures so valuable that even one well-preserved statue could forever secure the financial fortunes of the person who found it--if only one could get there and get back. But reaching the ruins would require traversing swamps and jungles populated by man-eating jaguars, poisonous snakes, tropical diseases, malarial insects, and blood-sucking leeches.In September 1932, a group of Germans arrives in Vera Cruz. Led by Gunthar Gerbach, an ex-military officer, the team includes two archaeologists--but this is no research mission. Financed by a German munitions manufacturer, the sole purpose of the expedition is to plunder the ancient city. Faced with horrifying dangers, hunger, and ghastly deaths, the group begins to splinter. But the ultimate terror awaits the team at Tikal...

The Axiom, "Remember to Remember" reminds us the Mayaused this SIGNIFICANT thought just as the term Buddha taught "Right Remembrance." We are to recall wisdom and truth are always available if we are willing to reach for it. Awakening to Mythological thinking is difficult any time but to depart from institutional thinking and enter into the world of intuitive awareness is the opportunity mystery traditions offer today. Mysteries dawning blend with personal insights to bring new comprehension of the WISE Ones who have led humanity in its quest. All cultures produce leaders to move us forward though parables, legends, calendars and mathematics for future generations. From the false belief of envisioning our native forefathers and mothers as primitive natives, we gain an awesome recognition of the wonders of encoded hieroglyphs; we move into respect and understanding through customs and oral teachings. We are now integrating the contribution of the Maya with other wisdom traditions. Many of the lingering myths of "questionable" ideas are clearly included in the mythology of these people. Such rests in the psyche of all America and as we ponder, these ideas come alive. The goal of evolution presents itself clearly in the unfolding of secreted concepts, such as "sky-people," "hollow earth theory' and grasping the double meanings of such terms as "spirit/space" and "science/religion." We find amazing hints of what is in store for humanity at the close of the Ninth Hell, as we ask, "has Humanity achieved its goal or missed the mark?"
