MALDONADO RIVERA, Claudio; CRISTIAN PERALTA, Luis  and  VIEIRA OURIQUES, Evandro. Cultural configurations in indigenous communication. Resistance and autonomy among communicators from Wallmapu. Comun. soc [online]. 2019, vol.16, e7209.  Epub July 03, 2020. ISSN 0188-252X.  https://doi.org/10.32870/cys.v2019i0.7209.

This work contributes to understanding of the communicative processes that take place in the intercultural and inter-ethnic Chilean-Mapuche conflict. We present an analysis of the results of ten interviews with Mapuche communicators. The discussion focuses on problematising three topics: identity, technology and communication. The results establish that communication mediated by technology is a field of dispute that contributes to the struggle of the Mapuche people for the reconstruction of Wallmapu.

Keywords : Identity; technologies; communication; intercultural conflict; Mapuche communicators.
