The present article investigates the everyday experience of trade at the Ecuadorian-Peruvian borderlands, in Upper Amazonia, during the peak of the rubber boom (c. 1890-1912). The article looks at this complex and often misrepresented socioeconomic process from the perspective of micro-history. More specifically, the paper offers a rhythmanalysis (Lefebvre) of Amazonian trade, and brings to the surface important undercurrents of modern Amazonian history, such as widespread low-level corruption and indigenous agency. It is argued that native mobility during the rubber boom was largely voluntary. In this period, however, the natives became more dependent on manufactured goods. Finally, attention is paid to the everyday practices of traders and government officials in their attempts to profit from the rubber industry. Make do and cunning were their most successful strategies of domination. The microanalysis of economic rhythms opens up innovative avenues of research into the mundane cultural fabric of large-scale processes. The primary sources of this investigation include archival and contemporary published materials, many of which have never been studied before.
