Abstract
By combining critical discourse analysis and multi-sited ethnography, this article looks at the discursive spheres where ideologies of race and development intersect in tourism contexts outside the Andean highlands. It illustrates how dominant discourses construct and situate social subjects within the structure of Peruvian society, while ideologically justifying the expansion of the tourism industry. Based on the case of Mancora, Piura, it explores the tensions and negotiations that emerge from implementing tourism within fishing communities in Northern Peru. The author argues that the tourism industry has advanced into a contemporary platform where old discourses and racialized practices are reproduced, creating the conditions for the processes of social exclusion to occur. Resumen: Turismo en comunidades de pescadores en Peru: Discursos dominantes y exclusion social Este articulo combina el analisis critico del discurso y la etnografia multi-lugar para analizar las esferas discursivas donde las ideologias de raza y de desarrollo se intersectan en contextos turisticos costeros. Ilustra como los discursos dominantes construyen y situan sujetos sociales dentro de la estructura de la sociedad peruana, al mismo tiempo que justifican ideologicamente la expansion de la industria turistica. Utilizando el caso de Mancora, en el departamento de Piura, este articulo explora las tensiones y negociaciones que surgen a partir de la implementacion del turismo entre comunidades de pescadores artesanales del Norte del Peru. El autor argumenta que el turismo en el Peru se ha convertido en una plataforma contemporanea a traves de la cual antiguos discursos y practicas racializadas se reproducen, creando a su vez condiciones que fomentan procesos de exclusion social.
