| Sumario: | This work analyzes processes of identity, territorial and community claims of Indigenous Peoples in urban areas in the La Matanza District (Buenos Aires, Argentina) in contexts of conflict in the last decade. From an ethnographic work with the Tres Ombues Multiethnic Community (2022) and from deconstructionist approaches to identity, territory and notions of "life in common", which go beyond legal/state communalization, “doing in common” was identified there, a non-predetermined diversity, with multiple life trajectories that come together to defend a wetland with non-human beings, a territory of memory, of revitalization of community ways of life and of questioning violent racist treatments. Tres Omb.es, who achieved state recognition as a multiethnic indigenous community after defying state limitations, exceeds an indigenous community as an ethno-governmental biopolitical figure, being a political horizon where to meet, embrace, and symbolically-materially enunciate other ways of life in common in urban settings. |
