This article studies the participation of young people in the Border Integration and Development Committee (CIDF), a novel space in the Chilean-Peruvian bilateral relationship. Youth are studied as emerging actors in inter-regional (para)diplomatic activity between Arica and Tacna. My objective is to ethnographically interpret their participation in the bilateral forums known as the Binational Youth Council of Tacna Arica. The trajectories of these actors are retrieved and analyzed, as is their process of convergence with other more institutionalized actors in bilateral venues. The results characterize youth through the dynamics of otherness amongst a plurality of actors. This analyzes showcases youths as emerging, though usually invisible players in traditional international relations debates.

Keywords : Ethnography of international relations; paradiplomacy; emerging actors; border integration and development committees; governmentality.
