Niños y niñas en las fuentes etnográficas sobre poblaciones indígenas (Qom-Mbya)

Abstract

The paper points out the ways that indigenous childhood was mentioned in Argentinian ethnographic studies. With this aim, we will review the core characteristics of the ethnographic approaches that directly or indirectly refers to mbyà-guaraní and tobas/qom children. In this regard, we will analyse the different ways that children appeared in these approaches, including how children's voices are presented in dialogue with the ethnographic researcher.
