Thesis (M.A.)--University of Alberta (Canada), 2001.

This thesis explores the economic role of weaving and evaluates the economics of production of naturally dyed textile in San Juan la Laguna, Guatemala---where textile activity is based on the use of the backstrap loom and is controlled by women. Textile returns play an important role in that they complement agricultural income and represent the only form of income women have while still allowing them to remain in their households. Age, personal factors, life experiences, and socio-economic status differentiate the roles these artisans play in textile production. Local social hierarchy has been reproduced within the local artisan groups. The use of natural dyes involves additional knowledge and effort. Because natural dyes knowledge are restricted and the market for natural dyes textiles is unappealing, the number of artisans who use this technique is limited; this in turn reduces the use of dye-material and market competition.
