Paseo Boricua. Identity, symbols and ownership

  • Ivis García University of Utah, Stati Uniti

Abstract

Este artículo es sobre Paseo Boricua, un área comercial demarcada por dos banderas de acero que representan la identidad puertorriqueña en Humboldt Park, Chicago. Las banderas y los establecimientos tienen la función de reclamar este espacio como puertorriqueño. El propósito de este artículo es analizar la relación entre los sistemas de propiedad legalmente reconocidos y los métodos simbólicos para reclamar la propiedad empleados por aquellos que se identifican en el área con la cultura puertorriqueña. El artículo se basa en entrevistas personales, observaciones y clips de periódicos, entre otros documentos, para abordar la siguiente pregunta: ¿Cómo se pueden usar la identidad y los símbolos para hacer reclamos colectivos de propiedad?
