CASTIGLIONE, Celeste. Dying away from home: Argentina's massive migration identity marks. Andes [online]. 2019, vol.30, n.1, pp.00-00. ISSN 1668-8090.

We consider that the funerary matter is a relatively autonomous study field where the struggles taken up in social spaces become evident: a place where migrant groups also had to conquer and negotiate. Within these identity spaces, we have identified three main groups: municipal cemeteries, with mausoleums of Mutual Aid Associations (ASM), the cemeteries of the so-called "dissidents"-corresponding to the Protestant currents-and the Israeli cemeteries. The present work focuses on the first group through more than one hundred and sixty cemeteries studied from the main provinces that received European migration (1880-1914), with the objective of considering the symbolic and spatial aspects that were developed during that period.

Palabras clave : Funerary places; European migration; Argentina; Symbols.
