SILVA, Sofía y GARCIA, Stella Maris. Andean ceremonies in the contest of public space. Uncovering control and ways to inhabit from a situated anthropology. Runa [online]. 2020, vol.41, n.1, pp.71-87. ISSN 1851-9628. http://dx.doi.org/10.34096/runa.v41i1.7993.
The late nineteenth century, the continued presence of Andean migrants in the Río de la Plata region of Argentina has contributed to the development of unique socio-political and economic dynamics. This paper presents the challenges faced by two Andean civil associations in La Plata (Buenos Aires Province) in their dispute for both the urban space and their right to the city. The symbolic borders that constitute an 'Andean us' of migrants -and non-migrants- in dispute, dialogue and / or disagreement with municipality officers, and especially, with their most recent public policies, grant a political character to the public space. The ethnographic approach used to conduct this research has led to the development of particular relationships and roles in the field, while offering the possibility of exposing coercive trends in urban policy, which deserve to be revised by future governments in office.
