Grasping the Nature of this Historical Conjuncture
The Dominga mining project from the perspective of critical cultural political economy
Disaster Extractivism
Latin America faces a twin crisis. The spread of COVID-19 has become a health catastrophe and sent regional economies into recession, while governments' increasing reliance on extractive development as a health and economic "cure" has compounded existing socio-environmental conflicts across the continent. An emergent "extractive savior" discourse aligns with political economic interests that have instrumentalized the pandemic to propel a new stra…
Democracy and Poverty in Chile
The critical issues concerning the development of a substantial and enduring democracy in Chile are those of strengthening civil society, democratizing the permanent institutions of the state, and building an economy geared to effectively satisfy human needs. In this book, the authors offer a critique of the Chilean transition and of the Aylwin electoral regime, analyzing the linkage between political compromises made prior to the civilians’ assu…
Economic elites and new strategies for extractivism in Chile
Within the country’s strategic copper mining sector, economic elites are begetting new political technologies that reshape state, economy, and society relations, to better anchor capitalist domination at the local level. Two post-2012 initiatives, explicitly designed to overcome community-based resistances to mega-extractivist projects, are examined. Promoting “territorial dialogues,” they set private-public-social development corporations which …
Flexible Workers, Gender, and Contending Strategies for Confronting the Crisis of Labor in Chile
Two decades after the transition to a civilian-elected regime, Chilean labor remains unable to stem its downward spiral. Declining unionization rates, shrinking average size of unions, wage increases below productivity gains, increased female labor force participation in low-wage and low-status jobs, and a dwindling number of workers participating in collective bargaining all attest to the paltry benefits obtained so far by workers and trade unio…
Methodological Retreats
Latin American Neostructuralism
Toward a Critique of Latin American Neostructuralism
This article offers a critical assessment of the first postneoliberalism development framework that emerged in Latin America after 1990. The ability of neostructuralism to present an attractive narrative about a twenty-first-century "modernity with solidarity" is based on abandoning key tenets of ECLAC's structuralism and the thinking of Raúl Prebisch and Celso Furtado; namely, a focus on the distribution and appropriation of economic surplus and…
Neoliberal and neostructuralist perspectives on labour flexibility, poverty and inequality
Chile
September and early October 1986 marked the culmination of a decisive shift in Chilean politics that has enormous significance for the future evolution of the country. In a rapid redefinition of positions, the Alianza Democratica (Democratic Alliance, or AD),1 a conglomeration of seven opposition parties grouping centrist, rightist, and social democrats, broke decisively with the left-wing coalition, the Movimento Democratica Popular (Democratic …
Chile
Given that our problems are really the same, it is not hard for us to come together. Our particular ideological or religious tendencies pose no problem because when one really looks at it, we find each other everywhere. We find each other at the clinic, at school, at the PEM or POHJ. We experience the same misery; we are equally persecuted; we are equally repressed. Therefore, when you get to the bottom of it, the only power we have lies in our u…
Chile's Poor in the Struggle for Democracy
In response to the drastic socioeconomic transformations executed by the military regime over the last decade, new forms of social resistance have appeared in Chile. As a result, the shantytown has eclipsed the factory and neighborhood organizations have displaced trade unions as the locus of action. Along with similar social movements unfolding in South Africa and more recently in Haiti, the mass struggles of Chile's unemployed and urban poor ra…
