Resumen
Abordamos en este artículo determinados procesos productivos artesanales de comunidades mapuches de la Provincia de Neuquén (Argentina), haciendo una referencia también a la instancia de la comercialización, considerando la actividad en su doble y fluctuante dimensión simbólica y económica y en vinculación con procesos de construcción identitaria étnica. Planteamos las condiciones contextuales en las cuales se inscribe la existencia de las agrupaciones y algunas características generales —demográficas, jurídicas, económicas— que refieren a su situación actual. Analizamos luego el ámbito artesanal, examinando sus particularidades y su dinámica, entendiendo que éste se ha instituido en uno de los espacios donde se dirime la conformación y legitimación de la identidad étnica de los productores mapuches. Damos cuenta asimismo de la intervención de agencias estatales e instituciones no gubernamentales en tales procesos, entendiendo que los mismos se inscriben en un marco de relaciones interétnicas signadas por una asimetría histórica.
In this article we deal with certain handcrafts production processes of the mapuche communities in the Province of Neuquen, Argentina, making reference to an instance of commercialization, taking into consideration such activity in its double changing symbolic and economic dimension, and in connection with the processes of ethnic identity construction. We firstly present the contextual conditions in which the existence of these groups is inscribed, as well as general characteristics (such as demographical, legal, economic) that refer to the situation of these communities at present. We then analyze the handcrafts production process, examining the special features and dynamics of such, considering that this field has been instituted in one of the spaces where the conformation and legitimacy of the ethnic identity of mapuche producers is discussed. Furthermore, we explain in detail the intervention of state agencies and non-governmental institutions in these processes, understanding that such are inscribed in a frame of inter-ethnic relationships marked by a historical asymmetry.
