Interrogating green hydrogen roadmaps
From anti-feminism to male appropriation
Fighting for the Future
This article examines the Dominga mining project in Chile as a paradigmatic case of how large-scale industrial projects can escalate from technical disputes into societal crises of moral significance, becoming vehicles for political struggle. Dominga, a proposed iron ore and port megaproject in La Higuera, Coquimbo, has generated over two decades of public controversy. Promising investment and jobs while threatening severe environmental damage, p…
Cultural Sociology in Chile
This article explores how cultural sociology in Chile has illuminated the role of subjectivities in processes of social change. Amid pivotal historical moments - including the end of the dictatorship (1990), the return to democracy and the consolidation and contestation of the neoliberal model - cultural sociology has sought to understand the emergent subjectivities among Chileans and their responses to these transformations. While economics and …

The Cultural Battle for the Chilean Model
The Chilean economic model has been widely studied both as a pioneering experiment in neoliberal policies and in regard to the growing social mobilisation against inequalities it has provoked. Insufficient attention has been paid, however, to the role of intellectuals in justifying and criticising the model. This article examines cultural battles over the economic model among the country's main columnists between 2010 and 2017, analysing debates …
The Cultural Decline of the Chilean Model
This article examines the debates surrounding Chile's economic model after the 2019 social uprising. It does so by studying how the leading columnists in the Chilean print media discussed the country's economic model between 2019 and 2021. The social uprising shook the political stability, social order, and economic certainty that had characterized the Chilean model for thirty years. Further, the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic triggered a triple crisis-s…
‘Supertanker is a Hero, the Government a Villain’
This article analyses the politicization of natural disasters in the media and the narratives of crisis that contribute to these dynamics. In particular, it studies media coverage of the 2017 mega-fires in Chile and the way in which this coverage was framed by pre-existing political disputes over the performance of Michelle Bachelet’s government (2014–2018). It examines the print press coverage of the mega-fires, and the framing contests used to …
El estudio científico del cambio climático en Chile
El cambio climático es un problema de interés público a escala global. Por sus dimensiones espaciales y temporales, este fenómeno requiere la construcción de una perspectiva global amplia para ser legible. Sin embargo, ¿cómo se manifiesta su estudio en lo local? Este artículo explora algunas particularidades de las ciencias del clima practicadas en Chile a partir de entrevistas y observaciones con integrantes del Centro de Ciencias del Clima y la…
The unfinished development of the frontier
O artigo explora conflitos entre a indústria florestal, as comunidades Mapuche e o Estado chileno à luz da leitura de Polanyi sobre a expansão capitalista. Oferece análise histórico-institucional das maneiras pelas quais o Estado chileno usou a florestação para domar uma fronteira selvagem e os povos nativos que ali vivem. Argumenta que o aumento da violência nessa zona responde à crescente militarização do Estado na área e reflete o contramovime…
Jornalistas da economia e homens das finanças
Objetivo do texto: explorar as relações dos jornalistas da economia com agentes do campo econômico e do campo dos economistas como hierarquizantes de perspectivas sobre a economia. Analisamos 58 entrevistas com jornalistas. Partimos da noção de illusio (Pierre Bourdieu) e exploramos o engajamento deles no trabalho: o engajamento a partir da noção de furo; os meios para os furos mais importantes, as fontes; e a formação das perspectivas sobre a ec…
Knowledge-production in journalism
Based on a multi-site ethnography of two influential newspapers in Brazil, this article examines how Brazilian journalists mediate knowledge claims made by experts, policy makers and the lay public. It asks whether and how these journalists experience themselves as knowledge-makers. More specifically, it argues that Brazilian journalists index their production of knowledge in reference to four main characteristics: depth, authorship, influence, a…
The Elective Affinity Between Elite Journalists and Mainstream Economists in Brazil
This article explores the ties between elite economic journalists and mainstream economists in Brazil. It does so by investigating the influence of mainstream economists on journalists’ careers, and therewith, on Brazil’s public discussion. Using mixed methods, we study the main achievements that help to explain economic journalists’ position. We present a multiple correspondence analysis of 53 economic journalists, 30 who are in elite positions …
Making News, Making the Economy
Media convergence and growing financial pressure on the journalistic field have triggered significant changes in newsmaking cultures across the world. This article examines the challenges of media convergence in the newsroom of Valor Econômico, the main economic newspaper in Brazil. In particular, it explores how the introduction in 2013 of Valor Pro, a real time news service oriented to the financial market, changed newsmaking practices at Valor…
Making news of value
This article explores the multiple modes of valuation that pervade newsmaking in economic journalism. It does so by exploring the different ways in which journalists at Valor Econômico, the leading economic newspaper in Brazil, compete and cooperate in the production of news. Valor is a paradigmatic case for discussing valuation practices in newsmaking since its institutional promise is to produce news of value. How, if at all, do Valor journalis…

Neoliberalism in Argentina and Chile
This paper contrasts the experiences of neoliberalism in Argentina and Chile, exploring why two countries that implemented apparently similar market reforms came to different stances on marketization: a post-neoliberal politics in Argentina, and a tempered neoliberalism in Chile that has only recently come under scrutiny. The paper traces the common antecedents that inspired these reforms and the different outcomes and reactions that they produce…
