“…Around the time of Spanish colonization, groups of Guaraní-speaking peoples were expanding south-westward into the Andean foothills (see Saignes, 2007) with presence in what is today northern Argentina since the early 1600s (Gordillo, 2011). The Guaraní heritage of the community in this research was traced through the maternal grandmother, who was born in Parapety, Bolivia and later settled in Salta province in northern Argentina.…”

The internet has been a valuable resource for many indigenous groups as a vehicle for selfrepresentation. In this paper we describe how the installation of a Wi-Fi signal in a Guaraní community in Greater Buenos Aires-as part of the community leader's decolonizing media projects-generated issues within the community. While much indigenous media research concerns the politics of cultural representation, we consider the politics of everyday, intracommunity mobile communication practices. Firstly, our findings show how the choice of communication medium can become a political issue. An upsurge in mobile-mediated communication within the community contributed to the decline of face-to-face deliberations which were the mainstay for communal sharing arrangements and which held a central position in understandings of Guaraní culture. Secondly, our findings show how discrepancies between users' communication preferences and the readily available mobile media services can generate a use barrier by demotivating users from obtaining the skills needed to effectively appropriate or transform mobile media services. Familiarity with a few mainstream social media apps not only reinforced imaginaries of the internet as a non-indigenous space but also generated set ideas of what the internet supports in terms of communicative form-social networking-and content 1 Sarah Wagner is a doctoral candidate at the Internet Interdisciplinary Institute, Barcelona.

In the end, the community leader's decolonizing projects aimed at using social media for community media dissemination were not only rejected by community members but also undermined by the dynamics of mobile media practices in the community. We argue that limited mobile technology skills combined with commercially oriented mobile media services can hinder creative and adaptable mobile media practices, and in turn, decolonizing mobile appropriations.

“…Mennonites also make up a sizable minority at 20 percent of the population, but despite their increasing economic power and impact on local markets they remain politically isolated because they choose not to vote (Faguet, 2012). 1 Freedom to make decisions according to their own norms and procedures has been articulated as a foundational element of Guaraní culture (Pifarré, 1989;Saignes, 2007). Resistance in the name of autonomy was common during the colonial and republican periods until it was silenced by the minority white population following the infamous massacre at Kuruyuki in 1892, in which the military intervened and more than 6,000 Guaraní (at that time known as Chiriguanos) were killed.…”

The municipality of Charagua recently became the first autonomía indígena originaria campesina (autonomous indigenous peasant community) in Bolivia under the 2009 plurinational constitution. A coalition of indigenous leaders backed by a majority of voters embraced the change as a vehicle for bolstering local control over key decisions, thereby advancing local preferences for indigenous forms of governance, values, and control over the development model with special attention to natural resources. The possibility remains, however, that it may operate to incorporate the indigenous community into the governing apparatus, thus making it more legible to the state and open to new forms of regulation, management, and control. Examining the state as a historically contingent and socially determined relationship helps make sense of this situation. La municipalidad de Charagua se convirtió recientemente en la primera autonomía indígena originaria campesina en Bolivia bajo la constitución plurinacional de 2009. Una coalición de líderes indígenas respaldada por la mayoría de los votantes abrazó al cambio como un vehículo para reforzar el control local sobre las decisiones clave, así promoviendo las preferencias locales por las formas indígenas de gobernanza, valores y control sobre el modelo de desarrollo con especial atención a los recursos naturales. Sin embargo, queda la posibilidad de que pueda operar para incorporar a la comunidad indígena en el aparato de gobierno, haciéndola más legible para el estado y abierta a nuevas formas de regulación, gestión y control. Examinar el estado como una relación históricamente contingente y determinada socialmente ayuda a comprender a esta situación.

“…7 Embora a presença missionária cristã não se reduza às ordens católicas, pode se afirmar que tanto no extremo oeste do Chaco argentino quanto na região entre Santa Cruz de la Sierra e Yacuíba, em território boliviano, e no oeste do Chaco paraguaio, a ação evangelizadora mais permanente foi encabeçada por missões de cappuccinos, franciscanos e oblatos -estes últimos apenas no Paraguai. Veja Saignes (2007), Sánchez (1998), Pérez Bugallo (2016), Fritz (1999) e Ratzlaff (2009). 8 Matyvirocho pode ser traduzido como lugar longínquo.…”

Focando no plano sonoro da ação ritual, o texto descreve a festa arete guasu que os chané e guarani do Chaco argentino, boliviano e paraguaio realizam anualmente. A repetição e a redundância na produção sonora do rito, tanto quanto as variações, constituem a sua musicalidade. Por sua vez, a repetição conjuga-se com as diferenças entre os temas que pautam a sequência do ritual. Aqui reflete–se sobre a relação desses planos formais com o tempo ritual e o tempo histórico.
