We will explore strategies of appropriation and claim implemented by Camila and other characters as a means of shedding light on their existence: of making it visible, but also audible. For instance, the imposition of certain duties condition the realm of potential actions that different subjects can accomplish, limiting their aspirations and even managing to infringe their human rights. By contrast, social practices of appropriation and claim constitute themselves as self-affirming and vindicative exercises, opposing to the aforementioned limitations the subject's own inclinations (which can be read as self-imposed duties), intrinsically tied to the way characters define their identities.

El presente trabajo analizará la dimensión política de la expresión identitaria de los personajes de Las malas (2019) de Camila Sosa Villada a partir de los aportes de Jacques Rancière y Judith Butler. Nos preguntaremos por las estrategias de apropiación y reivindicación llevadas a cabo por la protagonista, Camila, y sus compañeras con el fin de visibilizar ―hacer ver, mas también hacer oír― su existencia. En este sentido, la imposición de un “(no) deber ser” condiciona el campo de acciones susceptibles de ser realizadas por diferentes sujetxs, limitando sus aspiraciones y llegando incluso a vulnerar sus derechos. En contraste con esto, la reapropiación se constituye como práctica afirmadora y reivindicadora de lo propio, oponiendo a dichas limitaciones un “querer ser” (que no deja de ser un “deber ser” autodestinado) intrínsecamente vinculado a la definición de la identidad de los personajes. No obstante, estas mujeres sufren, a lo largo del transcurso de la obra, sucesivas invasiones y agresiones que avanzan progresivamente sobre sus dominios, dificultando cada vez más la incansable lucha de dicho colectivo.
