Summary: From analyzing the case of the Bolivian State's connection with its emigrants in the period between the democratic recovery in 1982 and the assumption of Evo Morales as president in 2006, this article seeks to problematize from a situated and substantive perspective how the formal and cultural dimensions of delimiting the belonging of the people to the national State interact. Addressing the main migratory policies and the Bolivian foreign service, the practices of the consular agencies of that country in Argentina and their links with the persons of that nationality in the region, our aim is to discuss conceptions that consider the relations between nation, state and citizenship as linear, constituted in a homogeneous normatively defined space, understanding that attention to immigration legislation and the possibilities of the formal exercise of politics exhaust the problem. By problematizing the links and imbrications between the different forms of belonging -and their own ambivalences and contradictions-, we aim to recognize forms of liminal participation from which, despite maintaining a weak formal link with the institutional spheres, the subjects can constitute experiences and claims that affect normative transformations.
