Sumario:In this article, we propose to reflect on conflict mediation in its complex relationship with the government dimension and specifically with the government field of conflict management. To do this, we will recover three ethnographic research experiences developed in recent years by the authors in different contexts (Rio de Janeiro, compared to the city of Buenos Aires, Salta and Olavarría). What is called the mediation movement implies a particular coordination between government agencies, courts of different scales, the world of NGOs, international organizations, among many others and a permanent dispute over the affirmation of this system is mounted around Give it more statehood.Secondly, with the objective of dealing with the institutional characteristics of this particular world, we will review different aspects related to our work as anthropologists in such contexts. We propose that the ethnographic experience in these scenarios requires different provisions on the part of the researcher that through a reflexive exercise can become powerful access roads to the worlds being analyzed.
