Abstract
CRESPO, Carolina and TOZZINI, María Alma. Silenced memories and Absent heritage in the Historical Museum of El Hoyo, Comanrca Andina del Paralelo 42º, Patagonia Argentina. Antipod. Rev. Antropol. Arqueol. [online]. 2014, n.19, pp.21-44. ISSN 1900-5407.
This article analyzes the silences and absent heritage in the exhibition at the Historical Museum in the town of El Hoyo in Patagonia (Argentina). In particular, it examines the widespread silences about indigenous peoples and certain issues and relationships, while attempting to reveal the mechanisms by which the institution gave shape to these absences. We approach the analysis of these silencings as productive resources through which systems of belonging and differentiation, stratification and territorialization, are configured and transmitted, revealing relations of power and structuring the possible field of action.
Keywords : Museum exhibition; indigenous people; Patagonia Argentina; silences; relations of power.
