Las investigaciones realizadas en el Norte Grande de Chile han relevado la capacidad de adaptación y reconstrucción de los entramados sociales y culturales andinos en contextos de complejidad urbana. En este escenario, a partir de una etnografía de las performances del Carnaval Andino “Inti Ch’amampi, Con la Fuerza del Sol” realizado en Arica, observamos que estas prácticas expresivas reelaboran los sentidos étnicos asociados a la fiesta, constituyendo estrategias de comunicación o autorrepresentación que sitúan la diferencia étnica respecto a interlocutores nacionales en un espacio social y simbólico transfronterizo.
Research in north Chile has revealed the capacity of Andean social networks for adaptation and reconstruction in contexts of urban complexity. In this context, based on an ethnography of Andean Carnival performances of the “Inti Ch’amampi, Con la Fuerza del Sol” in Arica, we saw how these expressive practices re-elaborated ethnic sensibility related to the event, constituting a novel strategy for communication or self-representation that situated the different ethnic groups with respect to national speakers in a given social space and symbolic border crossing.
