Abstract
Esta tesis analiza las tensiones entre movilidad e inmovilidad en el acceso a la salud en el archipiélago de Quinchao, Chiloé, desde una perspectiva teórica anclada en el “giro de las movilidades”. Mediante un enfoque cualitativo y transdisciplinar, que combina etnografías móviles, entrevistas en profundidad y cartografías sociales, se examinan las formas en que lo territorial, lo institucional y lo corporal configuran prácticas situadas de (in)movilidad sanitaria. A partir del caso, se propone una lectura crítica y relacional que permite pensar las (in)movilidades como procesos transversales que exceden el ámbito de la salud, abriendo una reflexión más amplia sobre desigualdades, cuidados y justicia territorial en contextos periféricos y archipelágicos
This thesis analyzes the tensions between mobility and immobility in access to healthcare in the Quinchao Archipelago, Chiloé, from a theoretical perspective grounded in the “mobility turn.” Through a qualitative and transdisciplinary approach, combining mobile ethnographies, in-depth interviews, and social mapping, it examines how territorial, institutional, and embodied dimensions shape situated practices of health-related (im)mobility. Based on this case, the thesis offers a critical and relational reading that enables understanding (im)mobilities as transversal processes that go beyond the health domain, opening broader reflections on inequality, care, and territorial justice in peripheral and archipelagic contexts.
