Resumo

Examina-se, criticamente, a construção e uso da categoria “falantes” nos estudos fonético-fonológicos da língua mapuche no Chile, os quais constituiriam uma tradição discursiva acadêmica local. Consultou-se um conjunto de 20 artigos produzidos nessa tradição nos últimos dez anos. Foi possível observar a ausência sistemática de perfis sociolinguísticos das comunidades estudadas e de uma definição explícita e coerente da categoria falante. Constata-se tanto a presença de uma série de pressupostos e ideologias linguísticas que revelam uma conceptualização problemática de tal categoria, quanto a naturalização de relações assimétricas durante as pesquisas, como reflexo de enfoques positivistas e perspectivas linguísticas estruturalistas. Conclui-se que é imperativo abordar as bases epistemológicas da categoria "falantes", assim como seu objetivo e suas consequências teóricas, ideológicas e de representação dos grupos com os quais trabalhamos.
