| description | The sanitary measure of social isolation – preventive and obligatory, decreed by the Argentine State due to the pandemic caused by COVID-19, brought about changes in the ways of operating of state agents and those who work in Indigenous and migrant organizations. This article analyzes the changes in the circumstances imposed by the new context, the displacements and pauses that occurred in the Provincial Council of Indigenous Affairs of the Province of Buenos Aires, and the work of an intermediary engaged in social activism with civil associations of migrants in Greater La Plata. In order to document these changes, the text is based on an ethnography, based on observations and interviews, and on the analysis of documents found in state offices and digital platforms. As a result of fieldwork, interdependencies and tensions between redistributive and recognition public policies aimed at migrant and Indigenous organizations have been identified. We observed that strategies and policies aimed at recognition were attenuated by the need to respond to the pressing health situation and the impossibility of accessing public space during the pandemic. |

La medida sanitaria de aislamiento social, preventivo y obligatorio decretada por el Estado argentino a causa de la pandemia provocada por la covid-19, trajo consigo redefiniciones en los modos de hacer tanto de agentes estatales como de quienes militan en organizaciones indígenas y migrantes. En el presente artículo se analizan los cambios ante las circunstancias que impuso el nuevo contexto, los desplazamientos y las pausas que se registraron en el Consejo Provincial de Asuntos Indígenas de la Provincia de Buenos Aires, así como la labor de una intermediaria abocada a la militancia social con asociaciones civiles de migrantes en el Gran La Plata. Para dar cuenta de ello el texto se basa en una etnografía, a partir de observaciones y entrevistas, y en el análisis de documentos encontrados en oficinas estatales y en las plataformas digitales. Como resultado del trabajo de campo se han distinguido interdependencias y tensiones entre políticas públicas redistributivas y de reconocimiento dirigidas a organizaciones de migrantes e indígenas. Observamos que las estrategias y políticas orientadas al reconocimiento fueron atenuadas por la necesidad de dar respuesta a la acuciante situación de salubridad y a la imposibilidad de acceder al espacio público durante el contexto de la pandemia. A medida sanitária de isolamento social, preventivo e obrigatório decretada pelo Estado argentino devido à pandemia causada pela covid-19 trouxe consigo redefinições nas formas de fazer tanto dos agentes estatais quanto daqueles que atuam em organizações indígenas e migrantes. Este artigo analisa as mudanças diante das circunstâncias impostas pelo novo contexto, os deslocamentos e pausas que ocorreram no Conselho Provincial de Assuntos Indígenas da Província de Buenos Aires, bem como o trabalho de um intermediário dedicado à militância social com associações civis de migrantes na Grande La Plata. Para dar conta disso, o texto se baseia em uma etnografia, partindo de observações e entrevistas, e na análise de documentos encontrados em repartições públicas e em plataformas digitais. Como resultado do trabalho de campo, foram distinguidas interdependências e tensões entre políticas públicas redistributivas e de reconhecimento dirigidas a organizações migrantes e indígenas. Observamos que as estratégias e políticas orientadas para o reconhecimento foram atenuadas pela necessidade de responder à urgente situação de saúde e à impossibilidade de acesso aos espaços públicos no contexto da pandemia.
