Abstract
PRIETO, María Emilia González. MESA ACTIVA POR LA REURBANIZACIÓN DE LA VILLA 20. AN ETHNOGRAPHIC APPROACH TO COLLECTIVE MOBILIZATION PROCESSES. Zaranda ideas [online]. 2021, vol.19, n.2, pp.24-39. ISSN 1853-1296.
Within the framework of new urban policies in the City of Buenos Aires, a redevelopment project began to be implemented in Villa 20 in 2016. Various state mechanisms were created to guarantee the participation of residents in the decision-making. In this article, the processes of collective mobilization around redevelopment are analysed, particularly the formation of the political front Mesa Activa por la Reurbanización de la Villa 20. From an ethnographic approach and the concept of hegemony, the perspective of the actors is recovered and the daily network of practices and social relations is reconstructed. It is shown that neighbours and militants develop political actions, both inside and outside the state devices, through which they build unity. Likewise, they stablish interpersonal relationships with state agents: confrontational ties, as well as alliances, affinity relationships and cooperation.
