FLORES KLARIK, Mónica. Agribusiness, Indigenous Peoples and Rururban Migratory Processes in the Province of Salta, Argentina. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2019, vol.55, n.2, pp.65-92. ISSN 0486-6525.  https://doi.org/10.22380/2539472x.799.

This paper discusses agribusiness impact on Wichí people daily life in Salta, Argentina. Focusing on rural-urban migration and settlement due to tree clearing, the paper analyzes the process of territorial reconfiguration and urbanization of life as a result of the neo-ex-tractive model. First, as a process that expels rural people from their land and forces them out of work. Second, as a process that disables indigenous peoples' cultural reproduction and subsistence. The work analyzes these changes from a statistical study and from an ethnographic approach we reveal the vision of the communities, as well as the different forms of resistance that they carry out in defense of their livelihoods.

Keywords : Agribusiness; indigenous people; extractivism; rurban migration.
