BLANCO, Pablo. Contingency, catastrophe and subjectivity in the Africans stowaways arriving to Argentine. Rev. Esc. Hist. [online]. 2007, n.6, pp.181-196. ISSN 1669-9041.

This article is about the subjectivity by the people involved in these problems, from the following questions: ¿How does shape the subjectivity by the people who don't know where is he going? ¿What happen in this trip without knowledge destiny that the stowaways begin, embarking a passage with trauma, loss, uncertainty and catastrophe? We will resort to the practice of ethnographic interviews, to collect biographies by the migrants. These interviews will be achieved in different places that frequent the Africans stowaways who live in Buenos Aires: bars, no government organizations, squares and institutions who work with refugees.

Keywords : Unavoidable migration; Subjectivity; Contingency; Catastrophe; Survival.
