Key elements in the traditional adaptation of Andean pastoralists include a dispersed settlement pattren, vertical transhumance irrigation of pastore, a bilateral kinship system wiht some patrilateral emp`hasis, differential control of rainy and dry season pasture, and interzonal barter. These have led to the expansion of haciendas, operating somewhat differently in the central and southern highlands of Perú and the Bolivian altiplano. The agrarian reforms in both countries consolidated earlier developments in pastoral areas, giving some official legitimacy to traditional forms of local level social and political organization in Bolivia and maitaining the division between communities and large, somewhat capitalized estates with a work force owning huacchos in Peru.
