SCHIAFFINI, Hernán. On "relics", "aboriginal communities" and "lof": A hemerographic exploration around "the indigenous" as a discursive object in the Esquel newspapers (1937-2017). Rev. Pilquen. secc. cienc. soc. [online]. 2020, vol.23, n.1, pp.44-64. ISSN 1851-3123.

We present the results of a hemerographic exploration developed on local newspapers of the city of Esquel over a period of eighty years (1937-2017). The exploration is linked to a more far-reaching investigation around the concept of indigenous "community". In tension with certain naturalized and naturalizing categories that were and are used to denominate the Mapuche institutions, we are interested in identifying discursive objects that referred to the Mapuche organizational forms. Also, the periods in which they appear or not in the press and who are their enunciators. We ask ourselves when and in what contexts words like "community", "aboriginal" or "Mapuche" appear or disappear in the speech of the local graphic press. Our working hypothesis states that the "community" was constituted as an object of discourse in the local graphic press until the 1980s and that its appearance allows the substitution of other previous forms of designation of "the indigenous".
