| description | This study attempts to demonstrate how methods of social cartography can serve as a political tool for the re-vindication of indigenous rights. This study employed methods of social cartography to map indigenous territorial knowledge in the indigenous community of Chapiquiña in northern Chile as a process of re-appropriation of ancestral territory. Methods of social cartography serve to make visible mental “geo-graphies” which are invisible to the Chilean state. This process led us to infer the hypothesis that the process of rural-urban migration from these Aymara communities to the city of Arica is not a process of indigenous de-territorialization. Instead we argue that these processes represent the transformation and construction of contemporary rural-urban Aymara territory. |

Este trabajo se enfoca en demostrar que el método de cartografía social puede convertirse en un dispositivo político que permite visualizar epistemológicamente otros saberes territoriales que se materializan en un mapa, con el fin de reivindicar derechos territoriales indígenas. Para eso, se elaboraron mapas con la comunidad de Chapiquiña en el norte de Chile, representándose la apropiación sobre su territorio. En nuestro caso, este método es el acceso hacia las “geo-grafías” mentales invisibilizadas por el Estado chileno, las cuales nos permiten inferir hipotéticamente que el proceso de migración desde los pueblos hacia la ciudad de Arica no se trata de una desterritorialización de las comunidades aymara, sino de un proceso de movilidad que ha permitido la construcción y transformación del territorio aymara contemporáneo, tanto en lo urbano como en lo rural.
