dc.description.abstractDrawing from fieldwork conducted in Arica, a northern Chilean city, this paper addresses the process of emplacement from the margins' as a performative force in which materialities, affective dimensions and claims are tied together. It analyses how migrants become settlers in unauthorised camps on the fringes of Arica. I argue that in this process a politics of presence' emerges, intimately imbricated in the material constitution of these settlements. I explore the potential of such politics to break the sensible' order and open the possibility for ignored actors to become present as legitimate urban interlocutors. I discuss aspects of what Kathleen Stewart describes as ordinary things that matter' because they shimmer precariously, such as the dynamic contingency derived from the building procedures commonly used in unauthorised camps.
