En los debates contemporáneos, la dicotomía se expresa habitualmente mediante la distinción entre mercantilización y autenticidad, afirmando de ese modo que la globalización y la comercialización socavan las pretensiones de autenticidad. Este trabajo analiza los diferentes circuitos de fabricación, produc- ción y consumo de un objeto especifico, la camiseta de un equipo de fútbol argentino –Boca Juniors–, con el fin de mostrar no solo las diversas lógicas que estructuran sus usos sino también afirmar que en algunas ocasiones las fuerzas globales, generalmente percibidas como un agente disolvente, cimientan nuevas formas de identidad que son consideradas auténticas.

  • University Microfilms International 300 N
    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.
