I22-R128-article-49582024-04-09T11:52:18Z Decide, control, and negotiate. Tensions and disputes in houses that are the object of policies Decidir, controlar y negociar. Tensiones y disputas en casas que se constituyen objeto de políticas Oriolani, Federico Agustín House Government the house Politics Temporary mutations Casas Gobierno de la casa Política Mutaciones transitorias In the article, I analyse how daily the houses of references of a popular neighbourhood of the city of Mar del Plata are produced through transitory mutations that vary according to the performance of political activities. I ethnographically reconstruct three cases in which a diversity of actors converges in domestic dynamics -NGOs, foundations, professionals, politicians, neighbours, militants- and in which the house is constituted as a political object and objective. The constitution of the house as a place of political productivity implies a series of spatial transformations through the movement of objects, furniture and artefacts that stage and readjust the inhabited space to become a place for neighbourhood meetings, a community dining room, a medical attention room. This intertwining and overlapping of the political with the domestic puts in tension the "government of the house", over who decides, controls and establishes the ways of its administration. At the same time, this spatial variation implies a daily redefinition of the thresholds of the house. Although the residents are the ones who make these changes, the objects are the ones that establish and announce the terms in which sociability occurs, as well as delimiting places of the private order. En el artículo analizo cómo diariamente las casas de referentes de un barrio popular de la ciudad de Mar del Plata se producen mediante mutaciones transitorias que varían conforme a la realización de actividades políticas. Reconstruyo de manera etnográfica tres casos en los que converge una diversidad de actores en la dinámica doméstica –ONGs, fundaciones, profesionales, políticos, vecinos/as, militantes- y en el que la casa se constituye como objeto y objetivo político. La constitución de la casa como lugar de productividad política implica una serie de transformaciones espaciales a través del movimiento de objetos, muebles y artefactos que escenifican y readecuan el espacio habitado para volverse un lugar de reuniones vecinales, un comedor comunitario, una salita de atención médica. Ese entrelazamiento y superposición de lo político con lo doméstico pone en tensión el “gobierno de la casa”, sobre quiénes deciden, controlan y establecen los modos de su administración. Al mismo tiempo, esa variación espacial implica una redefinición cotidiana de los umbrales de la casa. Si bien los/as moradores/as son quienes realizan esos cambios, los objetos son los que establecen y anuncian los términos en que se produce la sociabilidad, así como también se desempeñan delimitando lugares del orden de lo privado.

In the article, I analyse how daily the houses of references of a popular neighbourhood of the city of Mar del Plata are produced through transitory mutations that vary according to the performance of political activities. I ethnographically reconstruct three cases in which a diversity of actors converges in domestic dynamics -NGOs, foundations, professionals, politicians, neighbours, militants- and in which the house is constituted as a political object and objective. The constitution of the house as a place of political productivity implies a series of spatial transformations through the movement of objects, furniture and artefacts that stage and readjust the inhabited space to become a place for neighbourhood meetings, a community dining room, a medical attention room. This intertwining and overlapping of the political with the domestic puts in tension the "government of the house", over who decides, controls and establishes the ways of its administration. At the same time, this spatial variation implies a daily redefinition of the thresholds of the house. Although the residents are the ones who make these changes, the objects are the ones that establish and announce the terms in which sociability occurs, as well as delimiting places of the private order. |
