Three theses of the future as a Science, Technology and Society Studies research object
In recent years, the future has re-emerged as a significant research topic, encompassing studies on perceptions, anticipations, imaginaries, and theoretical explorations of its nature. This article analyzes how the future is theoretically framed in Science, Technology, and Society studies (STS), and how this relates to its broader framing within futures studies. It identifies three core theses from research on futures that highlight shared ontolo…
From fragmented to integrated sustainability in lithium extraction? Political measurements and critical minerals in times of sociotechnical transition in Chile
Lithium, a critical mineral for the global energy transition, has positioned Chile as one of the world’s leading producers through brine-based extraction. From this case, we identify a broader dynamic that we named “fragmented sustainability”, in which researchers and policymakers assess the lithium extraction through isolated environmental, economic, social and cultural dimensions. This fragmentation limits the capacity of sustainability science…
Opening the methodological black box in science and technology studies of the future(s). Shadows and proposals
Securitizing the technoplatformized City
This article examines the intersection of digital delivery platforms, urban construction, and worker agency in Antofagasta, northern Chile. Drawing on qualitative ethnographic research, it explores how delivery platform workers navigate, appropriate, and symbolically transform urban space within the constraints of the gig economy. The study foregrounds the spatial and affective practice of socio-urban securitization through the creation of inform…
How should the socio-territorial density of tailings facilities be governed? A proposal for Chilean mining policy
The article provides the first national-scale spatial analysis of tailings facilities in Chile using GIS and cluster techniques. • Two core zones of infrastructural accumulation and five distinct socio-territorial patterns are identified. • Each territorial pattern reveals specific environmental exposures and socio-territorial inequalities. • A critical review of Chile’s National Tailings Plan exposes three major policy gaps: social participation…
The Invisible Risks of Extractive Infrastructure Networks and Mining
This article uses Actor‐Network Theory to analyze mining infrastructures in Chile and develop a concept of “extractive infrastructure networks.” Focusing on the port of Punta Chungo and its connection to the Los Pelambres mine, we explore how these infrastructures, along with human and non‐human actors, create networks that sustain the extractivist economy while hiding environmental and social risks. Through a photographic essay, we show how thes…
Glosario tecno-climático para orientarse en una época incierta
El "Glosario tecno-climático" es una obra colaborativa que recopila entradas abordando conceptos fundamentales para explorar la intersección entre tecnología y crisis climática. Cada entrada se presenta de manera concisa, estableciendo puntos clave sobre los siguientes términos: "Activismo Digital", "Alteración Climática", "Antropoceno", "Atmósfera", "Dinámicas de inflexión social", "Gaia", "Geosimbiosis", "Progreso", "Sostenibilidad", "Tecnologí…
School and neighborhood selection as mechanism of socio-urban exclusion in Santiago of Chile
We propose to study a set of biographical narratives about neighborhoods and schools’ selection in Santiago of Chile. Our argument holds that these family decisions have the capacity to transform institutional logics which are fundamental in the experience of urban integration/exclusion. In the analysis of 25 in-depth interviews, we identify three interpretative keys to explain these decisions: biographical disengagement, social retraction and po…
Mining tailings dumps and socio-territorial inequalities in Chile
The aim of this study is to territorially link the distribution of mining tailings and multi-dimensional poverty at a local level. For this purpose, a database was constructed with governmental information regarding municipalities that present tailings, and subsequently, identified their levels of multidimensional poverty. The results show: (i) the presence of tailings throughout the national territory, although their greater concentration is fou…
What do we investigate when we research on mine tailings in Chile? An interpretative approach
Proceso constituyente en Chile y elección de pueblos originarios
En este artículo exploramos la contienda electoral por los escaños reservados para representar a los pueblos originarios en la convención constitucional en Chile a nivel de debate programático y de contenido. Así, construimos nuestro enfoque recuperando: i) las potencialidades de la política comparada entre actores y ii) el concepto de semántica desde la tradición sistémica. Metodológicamente, nuestra propuesta emplea herramientas de Digital Huma…
Beyond Algorithmic Control
This article describes and analyzes the labor process of Rappi, one of the main ordering and delivery platforms ( odp ) in Latin America. An exploratory qualitative case study was carried out and the results are based on the content analysis of 20 semi-structured interviews to platform workers as well as ethnographic work done in 2019–2020 in Santiago de Chile. This article contributes to, first, describe and analyze labor processes organized by …
Descentralización e identidades regionales. Haciendo sociología en el fin del mundo
En estas notas se recupera la idea de reflexibilidad profesional y desde allí, se proponen consideraciones socioculturales para la política pública en la Región de Aysén, las que pretenden contribuir a otros ejecutores y planificadores, como también a un contexto más amplio de profesionales. Desde una perspectiva de política pública situada, se proponen cuatro claves como elementos significativos par a la región: i) la construcción social del tie…
Acelerados, molestos y dependientes? Sobre los conflictos resonantes de América Latina
Este ensayo plantea la existencia de dos limitaciones en la teoría de la aceleración social de Hartmut Rosa para el estudio de América Latina. La primera refiere a su concepción de la política como un espacio que llamaremos “víctima de la aceleración”; la segunda, a su priorización del diálogo y el acuerdo por sobre el conflicto como mecanismo de transformación social. Para dar contenido a la primera afirmación se realiza una breve lectura crític…
Un diálogo fructífero entre teoría de sistemas y fenomenología
A finales del siglo 20 se desarrolló en Chile una perspectiva teórico-metodológica –donde confluyen la teoría de sistemas y la fenomenología– para comprender e investigar el hábitat residencial. Proponemos que la teoría de sistemas contribuyó con la semántica sistema-entorno a la definición de los niveles y dimensiones del sistema vivienda (también sistema o hábitat residenciales) en la propuesta desarrollada por Instituto de la Vivienda de la Un…
