Resumen
RABOSSI, Fernando. Negotiations, associations and monopolies: street politics in Ciudad del Este (Paraguay). Etnográfica [online]. 2011, vol.15, n.1, pp.83-107. ISSN 0873-6561.
Although there are municipal ordinances that regulate street vending in Ciudad del Este (Paraguay) and that the vendors seem to abide by them, the way the spaces for sale on the streets are occupied reveals a series of agreements, sedimentations and tolerances that are the basis of a system that reproduces the precariousness in which street vendors work. By exploring the ethnographic, historical and analytical contradictions between formal and practical ways of regulation, this article seeks to identify some recurrent mechanisms in the regularization of informal workers.
