Book excerpt: Jeff wasn't able to see the road but could tell by the sound of the car's engine that it was getting very close. Instinctively, he hugged the ground even more, trying to blend in. Only fragments of the flashlight beam were able to penetrate more than a few feet into the tangled mass of jungle. They swept past him and came back to stop at the spot where he had plunged off the road. With sweat pouring off his forehead, Jeff's tense body lay absolutely motionless. The Snake Man was so close he could hear him muttering. Finally, the man moved slowly on up the road, checking the bushes as he went. Jeff lay perfectly still for several minutes, not daring to move a muscle. Everyone's favorite fly fisherman and adventurer, Jeff Thornton, and his faithful sidekick, Trudy Garrison, are back! Come along for another exciting ride as they make their way into the tangled, dangerous jungles of Central America to take part in one of archaeology's most exciting finds ev—a rare Mayan codex. Little do they know the dangers they are about to face. Professor Higgins, their sponsor for the trip, has gone missing, and it appears as though the archaeologists aren't the only ones interested in the codex. The Snake Man—so terrifying the locals only speak about him in whispers is definitely involved, but is he the mastermind or merely a pawn? Will Jeff and Trudy be able to figure it out in time to save the professor and the codex? Will they make it out of their Belizean Adventure alive?

Download or read book Governing Maya Communities and Lands in Belize written by Laurie Kroshus Medina and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2024-05-17 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confronting a debt crisis, the Belizean government has strategized to maximize revenues from lands designated as state property, privatizing lands for cash crop production and granting concessions for timber and oil extraction. Meanwhile, conservation NGOs have lobbied to establish protected areas on these lands to address a global biodiversity crisis. They promoted ecotourism as a market-based mechanism to fund both conservation and debt repayment; ecotourism also became a mechanism for governing lands and people—even state actors themselves—through the market. Mopan and Q’eqchi’ Maya communities, dispossessed of lands and livelihoods through these efforts, pursued claims for Indigenous rights to their traditional lands through Inter-American and Belizean judicial systems. This book examines the interplay of conflicting forms of governance that emerged as these strategies intersected: state performances of sovereignty over lands and people, neoliberal rule through the market, and Indigenous rights-claiming, which challenged both market logics and practices of sovereignty.
