TRINCHERO, Héctor Hugo. Los pueblos originarios en Argentina. Representaciones para una caracterización problemática. Cultura representaciones soc [online]. 2010, vol.4, n.8, pp.111-139. ISSN 2007-8110.
The constitutional statement and the juridical-political devices that guarantee the recognition of the original Argentine peoples carry in their rucksack the weight of the system of representations that historically, but even nowadays, have been constructed concerning the senses that define the national identity. This situation is correlated by a productive structure that by its dynamics and characteristics goes against the principal demand of these peoples: the right to the territories that they previously occupied. One of the keys to understand this situation is the historical model of occupation of the rural space and the impact of the constant expansion of the agrarian border for the production of grains, especially soybean, linked to the world market. The purpose of this article is point out the current situation of the indigenous peoples in this country by means of a conceptual and statistical analysis and to provide a characterization of the conflict of representations and interests that tends to be intensified day after day.
