This article presents a proposal to rethink mobility in the Chiloé Archipelago from an ethnographic perspective that integrates some ideas of the so-called "non-representational approach" to understand the mobility practices that occur in non-metropolitan territories. We are specifically located in spatio-temporal geographies in connection with the modern and urban world, but that develops in archipelagic and insular realities. From field work on the islands of this small archipelago, the daily mobility of these inhabitants is understood as a heterogeneous, contingent and assembled process and, therefore, the importance of rethinking different ways of approaching and understanding these realities.
