description Reciprocal work has traditionally been the way in which indigenous populations accessed labor force for agricultural tasks. However, this exchange system is currently under risk due to the indigenous peoples’ accelerated process of integration into the market economy. With data from a household survey, this study analyzes the motivations to participate in reciprocal labor schemes and to hire paid wage labor by indigenous peoples in the Ecuadorian Amazon. The results of multivariate analyses show that households that participate more in reciprocal work are those which have more marginal labor force (women and children) and reside faraway urban areas. In contrast, households that receive non-agricultural income and have more land devoted to cash crops use more hired labor force for agricultural tasks.

Sin embargo, este sistema de intercambio se encuentra en riesgo debido al acelerado proceso de integración a la economía de mercado de los pueblos indígenas. Con datos de una encuesta de hogar, este estudio analiza las motivaciones de hogares indígenas de la Amazonía ecuatoriana para participar en esquemas de trabajo recíproco y para contratar mano de obra asalariada. Los resultados de análisis multivariados muestran que los hogares que participan más veces en trabajo recíproco son aquellos que cuentan con una mayor dotación de mano de obra marginal (mujeres y niños) y viven más alejados de las zonas urbanas. Por contraparte, los hogares que reciben ingresos no agrícolas y tienen una mayor extensión de terreno dedicado a cultivos comerciales recurren más a la contratación de jornaleros para tareas agrícolas.Universidad Estatal Amazónica2018-12-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://revistas.uea.edu.ec/index.php/racyt/article/view/10010.59410/RACYT-v07n03ep03-0100Revista Amazónica.
