VELASCO CAMACHO, Javier. Composing aesthetically politics: between Quispe and Miss Universe. Temas Sociales [online]. 2016, n.38, pp.67-88. ISSN 0040-2915.

This paper analyzes the critical composition of the idea of national community from an approach that, based on the theoretical framework of Rene Zavaleta and Silvia Rivera, proposes the reading of politics as a phenomenon aesthetically constructed.

Sociology can then open its scope to the reading of certain images: aesthetically manifest social moments that bring our tendency to think of ourselves as a society. One of these, before the phenomenon Evo Morales and 2006 times, was the capture of Felipe Quispe, "El Mallku" in the 90s, when it is read against the grain of the Bolivia-Miss Universe in its participation in the contest of 2004. Thus it arises if politics can be understood as the visibility of disagreement (Ranciere), born contemporary politics right now showing aesthetically constructed compositions of society to targetthe colonial condition as a condition that inhabits us
