| Sumario: | In 2009 I started working in conjunction with the Mapuche-Tehuelche communities of the coast and valley of the province of Chubut. During those years, many of the struggles and demands revolved around the local senses of belonging and the political particularity acquired by the dual adscription as Mapuche-Tehuelche in this region. The formation of communities that self-describe belonging to these two peoples is one of the characteristics that defined the indigenous movement in the province, and particularly in the coast and the valley. The present work, therefore, focuses on historicizing that process of strengthening and visibility of their identities to understand the ways in which the Mapuche-Tehuelche people modified the conditions that determine their ways of appearing in public spaces and began to be aware of political responsibility to be the agents of their own history. |
