Resumen
El presente artículo analiza la percepción intercorporal entre humanos y bovinos criados y comercializados en calidad de mercancía. Toma como referente empírico una familia puestera del departamento Alberdi, ubicado en la provincia argentina de Santiago del Estero. El escrito contribuye a entender las características asumidas por los vínculos perceptuales, gestuales y afectivos entre humanos y animales bovinos de una red sociotécnica de crianza extensiva a monte como la puestera, orientada a la pequeña producción. Se argumenta que esta relación interespecies resulta en una forma particular de vínculo gestual o mimético, afectivo, sintiente e individuado de las alteridades bovinas, y, al mismo tiempo, asimétrico, técnico y mercantil. De esta manera, conviven en la experiencia perceptual de las vacas la dualidad de ser objetos-mercancías y seres vivientes/sintientes, dos formas de percepción que en principio podrían parecer contradictorias.
This article analyzes the inter-body perception between humans and cattle, which were raised and commercialized as commodity. It takes as an empirical reference a family of puesteros who lives in the Alberdi department, located in the Argentine province of Santiago del Estero. The text contributes to the understanding of the characteristics assumed by the perceptual, gestural and affective links between humans and bovine animals of a socio-technical network of extensive forest breeding. It is argued that this interaction between species results in a particular form of affective, sentient and individuated inter-bodily connection with bovine alterities, and, at the same time, in an asymmetric technical and commercial bond. Thus, in the experience of the cows coexist the duality of being objects-commodities and living/sentient beings, two forms of perception that at first could seem contradictory.
