Abstract

GRECO, Lucrecia Raquel. “Culture” dynamics: Ethnographic notes among jurua and mbyain San Ignacio area, Misiones, Argentina. Runa [online]. 2019, vol.40, n.2, pp.313-329.  Epub Dec 19, 2019. ISSN 1851-9628.  http://dx.doi.org/10.34096/runa.v40i2.5536.

I will analyze contexts in which mbya and jurua (non-indigenous) collectives lead up actions related to mbya “culture” in San Ignacio area, Misiones, Argentina. These considerations emerge from my participation in an audio visual working collective as from my post PH research between communities and in an Intercultural Bilingual School in San Ignacio area. I reach an understanding of the ways in which mbyaand jurua collectives produce differences, identifications and alliances in the conflictive contemporary contexts of territorial enclosure. I will contextualize these interactions in the frame of State identity policies and I will focus in the ways in which mbyacollectives perform their existence projects by building and by emphasizing their difference and relation in front of non-indigenous society. I will focus also in the ways in which the different jurua collectives support these projects.

Keywords : mbya; Interethnic Relations; Identity Policies; Culture; Argentine State.
