BARADA, Julieta e TOMASI, Jorge. Pastoral rurality as a challenge. Housing policies and divergent strategies in the Puna de Atacama (Susques and Coranzulí, province of Jujuy, Argentina). Trab. soc. [online]. 2023, vol.24, n.41, pp.7-29. Epub 01-Jul-2023. ISSN 1514-6871.
The policies deployed by the National State towards the sedentarization of shepherd communities in northwestern Argentina since the beginning of the 20th century are part of a global scale problem that has historically involved the relationship between shepherds and modern states regarding their residential mobility and family conformations, whose particular characteristics have made it difficult to control and classify these groups. This article aims to address one of the most relevant aspects of this problem, which is the one related to housing, and particularly to public housing policies, based on the ethnographic fieldwork carried out by the authors in the shepherding communities of Susques and Coranzulí, in the Puna of Jujuy. In the articulation between official surveys and the construction of field data, we seek to recognize the way in which the communities themselves accept, negotiate but also operate with state policies and practices in their own terms. The policies of sedentarization are discussed, as well as the notion of a single residence as a materiality that contains, within itself, a model of family and rurality also constructed by the hegemonic sectors, for which shepherd communities are unclassifiable.
