Abstract

La sobrerrepresentación de afroecuatorianos del Valle del Chota en el fút-bol ecuatoriano responde a la construcción racial histórica de la población como aptos para los deportes y actividades corporales, y menos inteligen-tes, por ende, negados oportunidades en espacios considerados blancos. Sin embargo, el fútbol, como espacio natural para los afroecuatorianos, no responde a las expectativas de movilidad económica de la población, más bien, puede ser considerado como artefacto de alargamiento de brechas de desigualdad.
The overrepresentation of Afro-Ecuadorians from the Chota Valley in Ecua-dorian soccer responds to the historical racial construction of the popula-tion as apt for sports and bodily activities, and as less intelligent and there-fore, denied opportunities in spaces considered white. However, soccer, as a natural space for Afro-Ecuadorians, does not respond to the population’s expectations of economic mobility, rather, it can be considered an artifact of widening inequality gaps.
