BENEDETTI, Cecilia M.. Difference and Inequality: reflections on ethnic identity and commercial Chané handcraft production. Alteridades [online]. 2012, vol.22, n.43, pp.21-33. ISSN 2448-850X.

This article reflects on the representations and values of indigenous handcraft commercial production, emphasizing the dynamic inter-ethnic relationships that go with it. The research took place in a Chané community in Campo Durán in the Argentinian province of Salta. First, I discuss local conceptions about handcraft as source of paid work and how this articulates with ethnic adscriptions. Secondly, I focus on the link between this production and traditional stigmatization.

Palavras-chave : work; representations; inter-ethnic relations; stigma.
