| Sumario: | The growing flow of immigration to Chile and the conditions of settlement have highlighted the existing tension between identity, mobility, borders and nationality within the framework of a neoliberal State with outdated immigration regulations. This article aims to point out the fissures and inconsistencies between the official discourse about a successful and prosperous country, and the true experience of living in Chile. Based on ethnographic and ethnological research, the evidence shows that migrating to Chile can become an exercise in creativity between autonomy and hope, a fact that raises the need to update the composition of an identity model that is sustained in an apparent normality. We conclude that Chile is a much more heterogeneous construction today, and the importance of reviewing the discourses in circulation is revealed to update the identity of sociocultural diversity in Chilean society in later stages. |
