This article describes and analyzes the relationship between the processes of urban mapuche cultural reactivation and the constitution of indigenous affairs offices in the Metropolitan Region of Santiago, Chile. Based on ethnographic research conducted between 2013 and 2015, we propose that these offices have introduced in the municipalities the indigenous request, mainly Mapuche, and facilitated the participation of new political actors who dispute spaces of power among the state institutions.

Keywords : Mapuche; Urban indigenous people; Municipality; Participation; Ethnopolitical process.
