Abstract

ENGELMAN GARRETA, Juan Manuel. Migration and urban land access in the 1990s: the case of the indigenous community Toba-qom "Yape" of Bernal oeste, province of Buenos Aires. Andes [online]. 2021, vol.32, n.1, pp.00-00. ISSN 1668-8090.

The toba-qom "Yape" community is currently conformed by several indigenous families located in different neighborhoods in Bernal Oeste -Quilmes district-, and in other locations of the Metropolitan Region of Buenos Aires (MRBA). Throughout the years, both the migration of relatives as well as the natural demographic growth show an urban dispersion in a "mosaic" shape. The network of kinship and alliance relationships have been the support of the ethnopolitical organization based in the trajectories from multiple and secondary displacements into the region. The main objective of this work is to analyze both the scene in which indigenous families employed different ways and strategies to access to the land in the urban periphery and their interaction. To this end, we will consider the macro level of historical and structural conditioning in the role of indigenous families, the public policies of land regularization, as well as the associative forms that relate various social actors at the local and neighborhood level.

Keywords : Migration; Indigenous in the City; Toba-qom; Ethnopolitical Organization; Land Access.
