GARIBOTTI, María Belén  and  SANDER, Joanna. Processes of construction of situated citizenships:. Runa [online]. 2023, vol.44, n.1, pp.39-56.  Epub Jan 18, 2023. ISSN 1851-9628.  http://dx.doi.org/10.34096/runa.v44i1.11425.

This article proposes an exercise of (re) definition of the Anthropology of citizenship based on our ethnographic research on two collectives organized around processes of dispute for access to rights in the context of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires: a group of inhabitants of a precarious settlement and an organization of migrants organized for the expansion of political rights. Three problematic axes will be identified for the analysis: the multi-scalarity of the territories in the struggle for access to rights, the languages deployed in contexts located in front of government offices and the political subjectivation processes experienced in this journey. It is interesting to recover the potential of anthropology for the analysis of the way in which subjects construct citizenship in the framework of everyday life, disputing memberships to a political community and forging networks of relationships that cohere the individuals of a group.

Keywords : Citizenship; Rights; Multiscalarity; Languages; Political subjectivation.
