Resumen
Desde una perspectiva etnografica, intento comprender las formas que asumen las ´ pol´ıticas de desarrollo dirigidas a comunidades ind´ıgenas del norte argentino y vehiculizadas por ONGs, para centrar la atencion en el proceso que dio lugar a la con- ´ formacion de una organizaci ´ on de mujeres ind ´ ´ıgenas en su imbricacion con agentes ´ de desarrollo local. Para dar cuenta de las relaciones tensas y conflictivas entre estado, ONGs y comunidades ind´ıgenas se apela a la idea de ‘friccion’ que abarca la presencia ´ simultanea de movimiento y resistencia, solidaridad y rechazo, autonom ´ ´ıa y absorcion. ´ Atendiendo a los ‘riesgos y las potencialidades inesperadas’ que surgen en encuentros heterogeneos y desiguales, exploro en qu ´ e medida las relaciones y acciones promovidas ´ por agentes de desarrollo pueden encuadrarse como meras intervenciones neoliberales, o si en cambio, puede considerarse que dan lugar a nuevas configuraciones de la cultura y el poder. Asumo que algunas intervenciones se convierten en practicas m ´ as bien ´ difusas, fragmentadas y dispersas y que esto da lugar a que en sus intersticios se generen condiciones adecuadas para disputar y confrontar el poder. Sin soslayar los efectos contradictorios y perversos que producen las intervenciones gubernamentales rutinizadas, busco poner de relieve los modos en que las personas se movilizan para resistir las verdades en nombre de las cuales se los gobierna y cambiar las condiciones en las que viven.
This article examines the various forms that the NGO development policies aimed at women in indigenous communities of northern Argentina take. It focuses on the process that led to the establishment of an organization of native indigenous women and its articulation with local development agencies. The purpose of the article is to gain awareness of the conflictual and tense relationships among the state, NGOs, and indigenous communities—referred to as friction. Taking into account the risks and unexpected potentials that arise from heterogenous and unequal encounters, I use an ethnographic approach to ask to what extent the relationships and actions promoted by development agencies can be regarded as neoliberal interventions or whether they should be considered as giving rise to new configurations of power and culture. I assume that some interventions become diffuse, fragmented, and scattered practices, which, in the interstices, generate conditions to contest and confront established power centers.Without denying the contradictory and distorted effects produced by routinized governmental interventions, I seek to underscore the ways that people mobilize to resist the truths in the name of which they are governed and to change the conditions in which they live.
