Abstract
MARIANO, Mercedes. About bolivian identity in argentina: an analysis of three case studies in the province of buenos aires, argentina. Antipod. Rev. Antropol. Arqueol. [online]. 2015, n.22, pp.45-64. ISSN 1900-5407. https://doi.org/10.7440/antipoda22.2015.03.
This paper is about the representations, practices and cultural expressions carried out by groups of Bolivian immigrants and their descendants in the cities of Olavarria, Tandil and Azul in the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. For this purpose, the three case studies presented are analyzed based on the theoretical notions of identities and ethnic groups proper to the field of social anthropology. It thus seeks to contribute to knowledge about the construction of the identities of Bolivian immigrants in Argentina and, especially, to the discussion of those perspectives that propose the cultural assimilation of these groups into the host society.
Keywords : Immigrants; ethnic identities; diversity; festivities; Bolivian identity.
