Abstract

This paper proposes a reflection on the notions of transnational and intercultural setting of multiple affiliations of migrants in São Paulo, especially the Bolivian and Latin American. Result of an ethnographic research conducted between the years 2011 and 2013, this reflection is guided by its exchanges with migrants, whose experiences and worldviews are likely to feed the imaginary on the migration phenomenon on places of origin, routes and places of destination and, particularly, about what is being a migrant in contemporary time in a cosmopolitan city like São Paulo. We propose here the interpretation of an identity that opens the pluripertencimentos and intercultural dialogues provided by the phenomenon of migration.
