LITERAS, Luciano. Marriages, baptisms and lands. Political strategies in the end of the frontiers (Pampas and North-Patagonia, 1870-1900). Runa [online]. 2020, vol.41, n.2, pp.239-256. ISSN 1851-9628.  http://dx.doi.org/10.34096/runa.v41i2.7604.

The following work analyzes the leadership of the populations nominated by the State as indios amigos, during the last years of the Southern Frontier and after the military campaigns over the Pampas and the Nor-Patagonia, called Conquista del Desierto (1879-1885). Specifically, it focuses on marriage and baptism as indigenous practices aimed for preserving and increasing kinship networks and, for this reason, as political and social strategies to face the adversities of this context, assessing their impact on two aspects: the formation and consolidation of groups and the struggle for resources. For this, the itinerary and the social and political networks of Ramón Tripailaf and his followers are analyzed.
