| Sumario: | The Chubut Police Records Fund provides information on police identification practices in the transition from Territory to Province. In Chubut the opening of criminal records was inherent to all its inhabitants and was used as a tool of control, discipline, and surveillance. The records bring together various procedures, and the documents allow us to note that the identification process had particularities associated, for example, with the reason that opened the criminal record, physical and cultural characteristics, among others. It is argued that gender could have influenced the way of identification and characterization, especially of women. This process will be studied in more detail on a series of cases, with focus on the registration techniques and procedures. Analyzing aspects such as marital status, profession and/or political ideology will contribute to discuss the institutional perspective in the construction of stereotypes and role assignment according to gender. |
