%X this article examines some of the effects of multiculturalism in a specific place: the lower atrato river in the colombian department of choc¨®. in order to do this i focus on the scope and reach of the process of ethnicization of 'black communities'. i highlight the performative effects that the legislation inspired by the multicultural turn -and which constituted 'black communities' as an ethnic group- has had on the colombian juridical and political imagination. i am more interested in examining the emergence of an ethnicization process in the lower atrato than in diagnosing the current organizational situation in the region, as well as of non-governmental interventions (both colombian and foreign) or state initiatives which are taking place today in response to international humanitarian law or to the return of displaced populations.
