HENDEL, Verónica. Cartographies of Danger. Displacements, Migration, Frontiers and Violence from the Experience of Young People in a Neighborhood in Greater Buenos Aires, Argentina (2018-2019). Hist. Soc. [online]. 2020, n.39, pp.184-212. ISSN 0121-8417.  https://doi.org/10.15446/hys.n39.82576.

In this article, we analyze the recent deployment of a series of mechanisms and control devices over urban displacement in a neighborhood located in Greater Buenos Aires (Argentina). The protagonists of this research are a group of young people, who are mostly part of families that have migrated, and with whom we have rebuilt their ways of living, touring and experiencing the neighborhood in which their school is located. Ways that are crossed by inequality. Through the production of narrative cartographies and ethnographic analysis, we managed to map what they identify as practices of institutional violence oriented to force or avoid urban displacement. At the same time, this inquiry allows us to explore and analyze the reasons why these young people associate their experience of the city with danger and insecurity, deepening the senses that come into play there, which are involved with identification processes, but also processes of marking, stigmatization and border production. This analytical journey allows us to approach the ways in which these young people "make" the city, contributing to the field of studies on borders and their proliferation, heterogeneization and reinforcement in urban space.
