    Justice spatiale et conflits territoriaux dans un contexte néolibéral. Le cas du plan stratégique de Til Til dans la région métropolitaine de Santiago du Chili
    (Armand Colin, 2020) Jorge, Priscillia; Chia, Eduardo; Torre, André; Stamm, Caroline Andre; Bustos, Beatriz; Lukas, Michael
    In Chile, like in many other places, the grassroots struggles for spatial justice and the right to the city often extend beyond the heart of cities and especially rise up in suburbs or peri-urban areas. The Authors study the Til Til case, a “sacrifice zone” located in the periphery of Santiago (Metropolitan Region), where a large amount of polluting activities have been developed. For a decade, the residents have been mobilizing to show their opposition to this process. By studying the constituent terms and the genealogy of the 2015-2018 Strategic Plan for Til Til Development, set up by the Regional Governement to respond to the conflict situation, and the semi-directive interviews conducted with the main stakeholders of the project, they study how the local community progressively finds its voice by structuring its critical discourse about their right to live in a safe environment, and their to participate to in the decision-making processes concerning their territory’s future. The paper first introduces the case of Til Til and the conflicts generated by the disputed installation of polluting infrastructures in that municipal area. It then analyses the Til Til Plan, its method and contested outputs, before highlighting how the implementation of this instrument, which served the public action’s legitimation strategy, has proved to be inadequate for managing the socio-environmental conflict, yet rather contributed to reinforce the residents’resistance, which calls for a rethink as to the conditions that favour the emergence of the right to the city in the context of neoliberal Chile.

    ¿Peces Gordos y Peces pequeños?: los empresarios salmoneros, cambio institucional y conflicto sectorial en Chile
    (Universidad de Los Lagos, 2020) Irarrázaval Irarrázaval, Felipe; Bustos, Beatriz
    Son escasos los trabajos que abordan la relación entre el Estado y los empresarios en sectores productivos específicos, por lo que no son del todo claro los elementos gravitantes en esa relación. El presente trabajo aborda la relación entre los empresarios salmoneros y el Estado chileno durante el cambio institucional en acuicultura. Esto se realiza mediante la metodología de process tracing. Se analiza el proceso de conformación de coalición entre empresarios y Estado, la relevancia del que el Estado logre generar autonomía en el proceso de diseño institucional, y los problemas de acción colectiva que se produjeron entre los empresarios salmoneros. Se concluye que los empresarios salmoneros que mejor posicionaron sus preferencias eran aquellos que lideraron el gremio en el cambio institucional, y que participaron en el diseño institucional.

    Resource Peripheries in the Global Economy: Networks, Scales and Places of Extraction
    (Springer Nature, 2021) Irarrázaval Irarrázaval, Felipe; Arias-Loyola, Martín; Ciccantell, Paul S.; Scholvin, Sören; Dodge, Alexander; Martinus, Kirsten; Loginova, Julia; Sigler, Thomas; Kotilainen, Juha; Giraudo, Maria Eugenia; Watts, Michael John; Bustos, Beatriz; Ramírez, María Inés; Rudolf, Marco; Atienza, Miguel; Irarrázaval Irarrázaval, Felipe; Arias-Loyola, Martín
    This book discusses the conditions that underpin configuration of specific places as resource peripheries and the consequences that such a socio-spatial formation involves for those places. The book thereby provides an interdisciplinary approach underpinned by economic geography, political ecology, resource geography, development studies and political geography. It also discusses the different technological, political and economic changes that make the ongoing production of resource peripheries a distinctive socio-spatial formation under the global economy. Through a global and interdisciplinary perspective that uncovers ongoing political processes, socio-economic changes and socio-ecological dynamics at resource peripheries, this book argues that it is critical to take a more profound appraisal about the socio-spatial processes behind the contemporary way in which capitalism is appropriating and transforming nature.
