Abstract
The main objective of this research work that conforms the thesis, is understanding the underlying logics of migrant’s communities construction organized by Bolivians in Ushuaia city.
The research’s theme places this work in the Argentinean long research tradition of migratory movements, specifically in the one achieved about regional migrations. So, Bolivian migrants today compose in Argentina the second national group of resident foreign people. Their quantitative importance and their growing presence in grand urban centres have generated an important scientific production about the subject in different perspectives. Likewise, during the first years of the 80’s a “stock” of Bolivian population can be perceived in the south of Buenos Aires province. In Ushuaia the settlement matches with the demographic explosion that the city experimented as a result of National State industrial promotion policies. The assembling of the chosen case interlaces Argentinean’s and Bolivian’s migratory histories, Patagonia’s history and specifically the history of Ushuaia in a particular reference to Argentinean’s Nation own diversity grammars, and the way that this last was reconfigured in the austral city. So we are not only talking about the analysis of a migrant group experience but a reflection upon exclusion and inclusion dynamics produced in the national territory by those who are marked as “foreign” adding racial marks that become difficult their acknowledgement as integrants of a national group with their gender and class specificity.
So that, one of this research result is the acknowledgment that the path to understand the logics that construct Bolivian sociability as from Ushuaia migrants’ practices necessarily must include the following dimensions: the producer contexts of national and local sense that works as an available whole of limits and resources for the social practices, the mobility experiences present in analysed migratory trajectories that re-configure (far from the classical cannon of what is sedentary) relationships with territories and meanings and senses constructed by the migrants. What is local and what is transnational overlap their effects as a comprehensions frame for the analysed case.
In the same way, endeavour of the actors construct practices and meanings over the material and symbolic inheritance producing a kind of Bolivian “community” and “sociability” of which performance responds as much to the context as to proper and circumstantial mechanisms. In this aspect the research defines as a central topic to understand the forms taken by the Bolivian sociability in Ushuaia the strategies to generate their presence respect and legitimacy, but specially, to achieve a Bolivian permanence in the city. In these circumstances a strong social stratification is established inside the proper “Bolivian space” specially linked with gender relations and representations and with the construction of success credentials that explain the (unequal) positions occupied in this mentioned space.
