| Summary: | Tliis article presents an approach to the world of die drivers of the
public transportation, called popuhirly cliafiretes. I analyze their conditions
of work in relation to significant emotional processes, guided by
recuperating empirically tlie configuration of stj´les of urban life in the
periphery of Mexico City. Deliberately I emphasize the positive moments
of driving, aiming to build a non-stigmatized image in contrast to
the superficial everyday image of tliis group. Tliis requires that die antlu-
opologist construct alterity by fusing cultural horizons, hence paying
attention to and "translating" what the drivers diink, feel and imagine
about dteir occupation, dieir way of life. |
