MARTINEZ B., Sandra Patricia. Behind the Scenes: Ethnography of Public Policy for Afro-descendants in Cali, Colombia. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2019, vol.55, n.1, pp.213-238. ISSN 0486-6525. https://doi.org/10.22380/2539472x.577.
Based on ethnographic fieldwork this article explores the interactions between the actors involved in the production and formulation of public policy targeting the Afro-Colombians living in Cali. It draws on an anthropological approach to public policies, which proposes the need to conceptualise these as a negotiated process inserted in a complex network of agents, interests, and relations that mark the uncertain directions that these can take. Ethnography conducted in two scenarios of discussion of this policy, allows us to analyse the symbolic effectiveness of the public ceremonies as theatrical acts of the official, as well as to approach the discursive constructions through which the actors understand the state.
