Abstract:
"Innovative volume, which begins with precolumbian Muiscas and ends in 1940s, inserts history of chicha drinking within broader legislative and medical history of Colombia. Relationship between hygiene, nation-building, urban expansion, and growth of popular culture is explored within this framework"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57
