Resumen:
The aim of this paper is to analyze the constitution of subjectivities in the Paraná River Delta (Buenos Aires, Argentina). We argue that government technologies produced since 2008, when several fires occurred and the environmental issue became a hot topic in the public agenda, favored the constitution of environmental subjectivities. However, we also argue that those technologies favored the constitution of subjugated subjectivities in terms of class, gender, and generation. Therefore, we show the importance of ethnographic techniques to the field of environmental studies, in order to highlight what could be left out when site-specific ‘sustainable development’-oriented policies are produced.
