Abstract

This dissertation proposes to understand some debates about the political subjects and the identities built in Bolivian Andean territory, specifically in dialogue with the Andean ethnic group Aymara. The main objective of this research is to present some identity discourses related to the experience of Aymara groups, in this case with the Chambi family with whom I structured an important part of the reflections around the universe under study. I try to relate some anticolonial concerns with the proposal of Silvia Rivera Cusicanqui, the Ch'ixi miscegenation, including her criticisms of the theories of miscegenation in Bolivia. Starting from the description of the methodological contributions that were determinant for my entrance to the field, some specificities of the Aymara ethnicity and of the collective memory are presented through the intellectuals and militant Indianists and Kataristas (Quechua and Aymara political movements). In addition to a discussion around the theoretical proposal of Silvia Rivera Cusicanqui, I also had some reflections on my participation in the course of Sociology of the Image that the author teaches in the Tambo Colectivo Ch'ixi located in the city of La Paz. presented some contemporary theories of mestizaje in Bolivia, maintaining a debate between these perspectives, some of which defend a harmonic bias and others support the conflict as a determinant in the analysis of mestizaje, and the perspectives of the actors / intellectuals Aymaras del campo. These narratives are based on a dialogue with the concerns of the Ch'ixi that are presented with references to this category in works on economies and on the political structure of the Plurinational State of Bolivia, as well as their critics, coming from the own academy and of the Aymara political movements (AU)
