Resumen
DUQUESNOY, Michel. The desire for identity: stigma, political procedure and resilience among the mapuche williche women of the puyehue commune in chile. Antipod. Rev. Antropol. Arqueol. [online]. 2015, n.22, pp.65-87. ISSN 1900-5407. https://doi.org/10.7440/antipoda22.2015.04.
Mapuche Williche women today demonstrate notable political visibility in the communes of southern Chile. In this context, the term "political" does not necessarily mean partisan strife. The question posed in this article, is intended to set forth the hypothesis that if a socio-cultural stigma does exist, it could serve as a pretext for the consolidation of identity and political vindication of both the "ethnic" group and the "generic group," which collaterally generates a sui generis "feminine" discourse that has not yet been studied in depth. Considering these points, the author reviews the current discourses and praxis with which the Williche women of the Puyehue commune (Osorno) carry out their activities in dialogue with the traditional authorities of the Mapuche people and with the Chilean authorities.
