Healey, Co-Chair Professor Brian DeLay Professor Laura Enríquez Summer 2017 Abstract Frontier Justice: State, Law, and Society in Patagonia, 1880-1940 by Javier Cikota Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Margaret Chowning, Co-Chair Professor Mark A. Healey, Co-Chair This dissertation examines the establishment of state institutions, the role of state agents, and the emergence of a self-conscious, municipally-based civil society in northern Patagonia in the six decades after it was conquered and incorporated into Argentina. In Patagonia, the Argentine government embarked on an ambitious project of forging a society from above, by creating new state institutions and encouraging new settlement. But these ambitions soon ran aground thanks to limited funding and political gridlock. What emerged instead was a ramshackle combination of authoritarian central administration with significant local autonomy that I call the “skeletal state.” Underfunded police officers, an overworked judiciary, and aloof governors made up the state presence in the frontier, with courts playing a central role as guarantors of social order. The “skeletal state” arrangement became remarkably resilient, as state agents proved flexible in overcoming scarce resources and institutional fragility, establishing legitimacy through legal action and ad-hoc extralegal responses to settler demands. The effectiveness of the “skeletal state” was intrinsically linked to the settler’s need for it, as both developed simultaneously. Chapter One details the establishment, interaction, and trajectory of state institutions, looking closely at how state agents learned to operate within and beyond the system’s constraints. Chapter Two looks at how local and regional authorities attempted to discipline and acculturate the surviving indigenous population of the region. Prejudices, suspicion, and exigency shaped how state agents treated individuals perceived as indigenous, even as they tolerated the survival of indigenous communities in remote rural areas. Chapter Three follows the arrival of immigrants from Chile, Europe, and the Middle East to northern Patagonia, tracing their settlement patterns and the uncertain process by which they resisted, subverted, and sometimes allied themselves with the state. Chapter Four centers on family conflicts to explore how private affairs affected public perception of individuals, and the consequences of these conflicts on reputation-based social networks, which were critical to accessing justice in the frontier. Chapter Five examines the emergence of a municipal political identity (“vecino”) which was tirelessly cultivated by prominent and plebeian settlers alike. Vecinos, and the social networks they built, were a restraint on state power—blocking investigations, filing complaints against “bad police,” and agitating in 1 the national press, providing resources and infrastructure for police to operate, acting as justices of the peace, housing runaways, and collaborating in investigations. Chapter Six surveys cases of the illegal practice of medicine to argue that these social networks were ultimately used to challenge the legitimacy of state-appointed authorities on the frontier, as communities banded together to defend healers and uncertified doctors against state prosecution. The establishment of a functioning state apparatus on the frontier ultimately depended on the ability of state agents to creatively navigate the limited resources of the “skeletal state” and settler’s active desire for state presence. This reciprocity was not only unusual, it was also an ironic turn for a nation-building project that had imagined a strong state as the prerequisite for a vibrant civil society and proven suspicious of settlers’ ability to safeguard democratic principles. 2 Table of Contents Acknowledgments p. ii Introduction p. 1 Part I: Institutions and Practices (1875-1905) p. 21 1. “A Fictional Government” p. 22 2. “Embracing Civilization” p. 50 Part II: People and Networks (1890s-1920s) p. 79 3.

It took the work, love, patience, insight, and interest of a lot of people, who left their marks on these pages. I wanted to take this chance to thank the individuals and institutions that made this work possible. First and foremost, I would like to thank the members of my dissertation committee. Mark Healey changed the way I think about history, challenged me to consider which questions are worth asking, and whose stories are worth telling. I am forever indebted to him for encouraging me to study “the interior” and to think broadly about inquiries that engage academics both in the United States and in Argentina. Despite being on diametrically opposite sides of the continent, his advice, encouragement, and good spirits always made him feel closer. Margaret Chowning has been an incredible mentor. Her relentless optimism and constructive criticisms made this project infinitely better. Brian DeLay’s kind, steady advice made me think of Patagonia comparatively, reminding me of what is unique about this frontier, and what it can contribute to our understanding of other frontiers. Laura Enriquez, who knows how to ask disarmingly simple questions that force you to reconsider fundamental ways in which you approach a particular problem, was a constant reminder of the value of kindness in academia. I was lucky to have my interest in history nurtured throughout my life. Mr. Stephen Cohen organized a history club for a few of us in high school after hours, and his incisive questions those afternoons have continued to resonate with me as the decades passed. As an undergraduate, in a time of confusion and disappointment, Jonathan Brown rekindled my interest in history and forced me to become a better writer, while Julie Hardwick introduced me to court cases and the fascinating stories they hold. At Berkeley, I was fortunate to work with Margaret Anderson and John Connelly who helped me to think about how European historiographical questions applied to the history of Latin America. The student-run Berkeley Latin American History working group was an invaluable resource in shaping this project. They not only read and commented on several of its chapters, but they provided me with a chance to meet and engage with scholars from throughout California. BLAH is a cherished tradition, passed down from generation to generation of graduate students in the program, and I was honored to be a part of it. Within the working group, but also in countless seminars, my extended cohort of latinoamericanistas—Sarah Selvidge, Sara Hines, Pablo Palomino, German Vergara, Lynsay Skiba, Alberto Garcia, Rebecca Herman and David Tamayo—expanded the ways in which I understood Latin America and helped me articulate what was unique about my own perspective. The Latin American Sociology working group, which graciously allowed me to present one of the chapters of this dissertation, constantly reminded me of the richness in our different methodologies and research questions. The research for this dissertation was done over three Patagonian winters, and a long spring. In that brief time, I became indebted to many people who through their hard work and love keep the archives alive. At the Archivo Histórico Provincial Rio Negro in Viedma I want to thank its director, Rebeca Pajón, as well as the relentless staff, Lourdes and Fernanda. I am especially indebted to Jorge Calvo in AHP-RN who always had a warm mate ready to share in the early hours of the morning. Graciela Suárez pointed me in the direction of relevant historiography and showed me the ropes in the AHP-RN. In Neuquén, I am profoundly indebted to Enrique Mases, who kindly allowed me access to the GEHiSo archive, and Gabriel Rafart, ii who entertained my endless questions. Francisco Camino Vela warmly opened his home, sharing his kindness and wisdom. The staff at the AGN-Archivo Intermedio was a tireless resource, painstakingly caring for the recent past and allowing researchers to learn from it. Dissertations require financial support to complete. I was fortunate to receive a Cota Robles Fellowship my first two years at Berkeley, which encouraged me to undertake sprawling research projects without having to teach. The Department of History’s travel grant funded the preliminary research for this project. The bulk of the fieldwork was done with the help of the Dean’s Normative Time Fellowship. I had time to parse through the research and write this dissertation

The Conquest of the Desert: Argentina’s Indigenous Peoples and the Battle for History. Diálogos Series. Albuquerque: University of New Mexico Press, 2020. Illustrations. 256 pp. $29.95 (paper), ISBN 978-0-8263-6207-0. Reviewed by María de los Ángeles Picone (Boston College)Published on H-LatAm (June, 2021) Commissioned by Casey M. Lurtz (Johns Hopkins University) Printable Version: https://www.h-net.org/reviews/showpdf.php?id=55740 In 1879, the government of Argentina unleashed a military campaign to northern Patagonia, known at the time as the “Conquest of the Desert.” What was the desert? For the Sarmientine generation, it was the vast lands that surrounded economic centers, unproductive, uninhabited, and usually beyond state control. Of course, the desert was far from empty. In fact, the raid of 1879 sought disarticulate indigenous chiefdoms in present-day Río Negro, Neuquén, and La Pampa. Behind the soldiers came authorities surveying, dividing, planning, and selling lands to whomever was willing to move to the “new” territories. This was the official story. The Conquest of the Desert joins a vast literature that challenges the official narrative of the Argentina military raid of 1879.[1] By shifting the attention to the experiences of Mapuche and Tehuelche living in northern Patagonia, this volume highlights the kaleidoscopic impacts of the violent removal of indigenous peoples from their territories during the raid and its aftermath. The volume brings together scholars from Argentina, the United States, and Canada in different stages of their careers and from different disciplines.

  • Aspects of Social Justice Ally Work in Chilean Historical Fiction: the Case of the Pacification of Araucanía
    Aspects of Social Justice Ally Work in Chilean Historical Fiction: The Case of the Pacification of Araucanía Katherine Karr-Cornejo Whitworth University Abstract Majority-culture writers often depict cultures different from their own, but approaching cultures to which an author does not belong can be challenging. How might we read dominant-culture portrayals of marginalized cultures that tell stories of injustice? In this paper I utilize the frame of identity development in social justice allies in order to understand the narratives dominant-culture authors use in fiction to reflect sympathetic views of indigenous justice claims. In order to do so, I study three historical novels set in Araucanía during the second half of the nineteenth century, considering historiographical orientation, representation of cultural difference, and understanding of sovereignty:Casas en el agua (1997) by Guido Eytel, Vientos de silencio (1999) by J.J. Faundes, and El lento silbido de los sables (2010) by Patricio Manns. I will show that fiction, even in validating indigenous justice claims, does not overcome past narratives of dominance. Representations can deceive us. The Mapuche warriors of Alonso de Ercilla’s epic poem La Araucana are safely in the past, and their cultural difference poses no threat to present-day nor- mative Chilean culture. However, that normative culture glorifies these fictional representations on the one hand and deprecates Mapuche communities today on the other. How did that hap- pen? Various Mapuche groups resisted Spanish colonization for centuries, restricting European expansion in today’s southern Chile. After Chilean independence from Spain in the early nine- teenth century, the conflict continued.

  • Vulnerabilidad Al Ascenso Del Nivel Del Mar En La Costa De La Provincia De Río Negro
    Revista de la Asociación Geológica Argentina, 59 (3): 477-487 (2004) Vulnerabilidad al ascenso del nivel del mar en la costa de la provincia de Río Negro Roberto R. KOKOT1,2, Jorge O. CODIGNOTTO1,2 y Manuela ELISSONDO1 1 Departamento de Ciencias Geológicas, FCE y N, UBA. Pab. 2 Ciudad Universitaria C1428EHA Buenos Aires, Argentina. 2 CONICET. E-mail: [email protected] RESUMEN. Los escenarios elaborados a escala mundial por el Panel Internacional de Cambio Climático (IPCC) respecto al ascenso del nivel del mar, debido principalmente a la expansión térmica del océano y a las pérdidas de masa de los glaciares, prevén valores que en promedio oscilan entre 0,09 y 0,88 m desde 1990 al 2100, con tendencia a la aceleración. Los impactos potenciales por la elevación del mar conducen a cambios en el área costera, que incluyen inundación, incremento en el retroceso costero, e intrusión salina en los acuíferos y estuarios. Con el objeto de posibilitar un adecuado manejo de la costa de la provincia de Río Negro, se efectuó una zonificación que permite disponer de información referente a la vulnerabilidad por ascenso del nivel del mar, a través de un mapa de simple lectura. Las áreas de peligrosidad geológica, referidas a inundación permanente y/o episódica se identificaron mediante índices de vulnerabilidad costera, también denominados índices de susceptibilidad, obtenidos a través de la aplicación de un algoritmo que relaciona variables obtenidas a partir de información geológica costera, oceanográfica y climatológica. Las zonas más vulnera- bles al ascenso del nivel del mar, corresponden a Balneario El Salado (Playas Doradas), San Antonio Oeste – San Antonio Este, Caleta de los Loros y la desembocadura del río Negro, mientras que el tramo de costa correspondiente a la costa acantilada ubicada al oeste del río Negro y al sur de punta Pórfido, muestra una vulnerabilidad baja.

  • Coloniality and Anglican Missions in Argentine Patagonia in the Nineteenth Century
    humanities Article Lux et Tenebris? Coloniality and Anglican Missions in Argentine Patagonia in the Nineteenth Century Hugo Córdova Quero Department of Theology, Starr King School for the Ministry, Oakland, CA 94623, USA; [email protected] Abstract: Within the modern capitalist World-System, Missionary work was mostly developed through the connubiality with colonial powers. The missionary work of the Anglican Church is no exception. This article centers on the missionary enterprise carried out in Argentine Patagonia in the nineteenth century. Missionaries’ reports carefully narrated that venture. However, the language and the notions underlying the missionary work’s narration reveal the dominion of colonial ideologies that imbued how religious agents constructed alterity. Connecting the missionaries’ worldview with the political context and expansion of the British Empire allows us to unfold the complex intersections of religious, ethnic, racial, and geopolitical discourses that traverse the lives of indigenous peoples in South America. Keywords: Anglican missions; Argentine Patagonia; British Empire; Missionary reports 1. Introduction “Thus, we lived from week to week, seeking according to the grace given to us to be useful in opening the eyes of these poor people to see and follow the light of God’s truth, and to love and serve their God and Saviour”. Citation: Córdova Quero, Hugo. Thomas Bridges (Kirby 1871, pp. 140–41; emphasis mine) 2021. Lux et Tenebris? Coloniality With those words, the Anglican missionary Rev. Thomas Bridges concluded his report and Anglican Missions in Argentine to the South American Missionary Society (SAMS) for 1871 (Kirby 1871, pp. 137–41).
