The work addresses the reports of metropolitan social anthropologists that operated as a legitimate way of knowing the organization of families and the interventions of other local institutions on these groups. In the 1960s, the indigenous residents of Barrio Toba were made visible within the provincial public problems due to their lack of integration and the characteristics of their housing conditions. Therefore, the hiring of experts and their spatial observations allows us to reflect on the overlaps of the academy, the developmental configuration and the indigenous problem in a markedly unequal urban setting. We wonder to what extent the specific intervention of the experts in this neighborhood, from evaluations and constructions of meanings, can be understood within the broader processes of alterization that have arisen over the period. The methodology is based on the analysis of a documentary corpus made up of the results of the consultancy carried out by the team of experts led by Esther Hermitte for the Chaco government. The purpose of the article is to review the objectifications of places, subjects, and relationships by which anthropological knowledge converges with transnational agendas, academic debates, and neighborhood institutions in a singular stage of Chaco capitalism. En el artículo analizamos las descripciones antropológicas realizadas sobre espacios domésticos indígenas en el Barrio Toba de la ciudad de Resistencia entre 1969 y 1970. El trabajo aborda en los informes de antropólogos sociales metropolitanos que operaron como una manera legítima de conocer la organización de las familias y las intervenciones de otras instituciones locales sobre estos grupos. En la década de los 60, los residentes indígenas del Barrio Toba fueron visibilizados dentro de los problemas públicos provinciales a partir de su falta de integración y las características de sus condiciones habitacionales. Por lo que, la contratación de los expertos y sus observaciones espaciales nos permite reflexionar sobre las imbricaciones de la academia, la configuración desarrollista y el problema indígena en un escenario urbano marcadamente desigual. Nos preguntamos hasta qué punto la intervención concreta de los expertos en este barrio, desde valoraciones y construcciones de sentidos, puede ser comprendida dentro de procesos de alterización más amplios suscitados en periodo. La metodología se basa en el análisis de un corpus documental compuesto por los resultados de la consultoría realizada por el equipo de expertos que lideró Esther Hermitte para el gobierno de Chaco. El propósito del artículo es la revisión de objetivaciones sobre lugares, sujetos y relaciones por las cuales el saber antropológico converge con agendas transnacionales, debates académicos e instituciones barriales en una etapa singular del capitalismo chaqueño.
