总结:This text analyses the state practices that limit and expand the experience of citizenship, and the strategies used by people in order to exercise their rights. The work is based on an ethno-graphic study that looks at the encounters between Bolivian population and state bureaucracy. The study looks at those organs of the State responsible for the registration of identity of individuals  (identity  cards),  as  well  as  the  assignation  of  legal  status  to  associations  (legal  entity).The study explores the meanings given to citizenship in the space that divides de jure equality from de facto equality, which are experienced through day-to-day encounters with state bureaucracy.
