- ItemThe conditions of urbanization and the production of nature in Chilean coastal cities. The cases of Valparaíso and CoquimboLas condiciones de la urbanización y la producción de naturaleza en ciudades litorales chilenas. Los casos de Valparaíso y Coquimbo(2022) Hidalgo R.; Vergara-Constela C.; González-Rodríguez M.© 2022, Revista de Geografia Norte Grande. All rights reserved.Through a general descriptive method (documentary analysis, population and housing statistics, and observation), this article analyzes the urbanization process and its relationship with nature in Chilean coastal cities, using as case studies the coastal communes of Coquimbo and Valparaíso. Through a conceptual framework associated with the Marxist-urban paradigm of the production of space, both communes are characterized and analyzed, accounting for the forms that the relationship has acquired between the built environment and nature, focusing mainly on the role of housing and, specifically, of subsidized housing. It concludes by demonstrating the contradictory urbanization process in which both communes are found.
