description | A moving body: kinship, « diffusion of influence » and corporeal transformations in Trio beer feasts, northeastern Amazonia. This article is an analysis of the social relations established and nurtured between bodies during Trio communal feasts in southern Suriname. The villages in which they live are characterised by growing sedentary and increased population concentration, which, from a Trio point of view, means an increased physical and social interaction with unrelated affines and potential enemies. These communal feasts are referred to as beer feasts due to the central importance of manioc beer in the articulation of collective sociability typical of these occasions which bring together coresident and geographically distant affines, and their repercussions on the specific and temporary form of kinship which is generated among commensals. The concepts of nurture and diffusion of influence will be introduced to analyse these social relations and to place them in the contemporary context of Northeastern Amazonia. |
