Abstract
Currently, in the Argentine National Congress, is discussing about a draft law aimed at incorporating foreigners who have resided in the state territory for at least two years to the electorate. In this paper it is started from this project as a device to perform a series of theoretical cutting reflections, about the cultural complexity of societies and the challenges to democracy as a political system and a community organization. In particular, it is intended to rethink how the presence of foreigners drives social mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion that are accompanied and supported by the legal discourse, and, along with it, how the notion of citizenship is present and it is facing retraction or expansion processes. Therefore, the aim of this paper is not to conduct an analysis of the mentioned draft law; but, rather, take advantage of the circumstance of its presentation to launch a debate about how multidimensional categories are drawn between those who are and are not considered part of a society.
