RESUMENPara muchos pueblos indígenas, la ciudad se constituyó históricamente como un espacio de exclusión y dominación que los relegó en los confi nes de la idea misma de modernidad. Sin embargo, la construcción y reproducción de espacios colectivos permite hoy a estos pueblos resignifi car su presencia y renegociar su posición en el mosaico urbano. Este artículo apunta a entender las recomposiciones territoriales que derivan de esta situación, basándose para ello en un trabajo de campo (entrevistas, observación participante y revisión de archivos) realizado entre los años 2013 y 2014 con asociaciones mapuches de la comuna de La Pintana, ubicada al sur del Gran Santiago. Junto con describir el proceso migratorio mapuche en Chile y las modalidades de constitución de una territorialidad mapuche urbana, se analiza el surgimiento de rukas en el transcurso de los últimos quince años en La Pintana. Se concluye de este análisis que la ciudad participa plenamente de las dinámicas territoriales que animan el mundo mapuche contemporáneo. ABSTRACTFor many indigenous peoples, the city was historically constructed as a space of exclusion and domination that relegated them to the confi nes of the very idea of modernity. However, the current construction of collective spaces enables them to renegotiate their position within the urban fabric. This article aims at understanding the territorial reconfi gurations that have arisen in this context, using data collected through a fi eldwork (interviews, participatory observation and archival research) conducted between 2013 and 2014 with indigenous groups in La Pintana, located within the metropolitan area of Santiago. In addition to describing the processes of Mapuche migration in Chile and the modalities by which an urban territoriality is being formed, we also analyze the emergence of rukas over the last fi fteen years in La Pintana. We conclude that urban areas clearly form a portion of the contemporary Mapuche territorial dynamics.
