Resumen

ANGULO VILLAN, Florencia Raquel. Power and segregation represented in the literature of the north-west side of Argentina. Cuad. Fac. Humanid. Cienc. Soc., Univ. Nac. Jujuy [online]. 2002, n.19, pp.51-62. ISSN 1668-8104.

The social and cultural environment of the peripheral region of the North-west of Argentina is more than a political or geographical destiny. This situation of segregation is being repeated from the Prehispanic periods up to the present time. The dichotomic construction down-town / periphery is becoming a conflictive nucleus, because it has to resist the frontier lines. Mignolo quoting Franz Fanon, points out that "he has conceptualised the boundaries as zones of colonial expansion and of violence rather than zones of contact".(*) Precisely this violence against the human being, against identity, against the occidental culture and its progress, and against the Andina culture and its postponement, is being emphasized in the productions of Carlos Aparicio and Alberto Alabí. The organization of Power is inferred from a careful reading of their short stories -organization that coincides with the "city"- and that limits the segregating spaces. Domination generates places of resistence that vary according to the narrative, but they constantly appear as a corresponding relation of that segregation between power and marginality. The generating structures of that space of social and economic separation, both in Aparicio's and Alabí's short stories, are produced by narrative sequencies of possession sear and reivindication, in constant tension with Power.
