The border as an interstice. Refections on epistemic violence of fronterizations

Abstract

In line with concerns emerged in the fieldwork of an investigation on migratory processes of Colombians and Peruvians with non-heteronormative sex-generic subjectivations, the article problematizes the apparently clear boundaries drawn between the attributes defined to select the subjects of the study: the relationship time-space involved in migratory displacement, and the "homosexual" sex-generic subjectivation. From these reflections, and from contributions from authors who have worked around the notion, an interstitial way of thinking about the border is proposed.
