Livelihood vulnerability to climate variability in a Giahs of the Southern Andes: An index-based spatial assessment
Variabilidad Climática y Huertas Mapuche-Pewenche: Prácticas de adaptación en tiempos de cambio en los Andes del Sur de Chile
La agricultura familiar de montaña es un reservorio de memoria biocultural que integra conocimientos, prácticas y creencias vinculadas a su territorio. No obstante, la alta dependencia del clima hace a esta actividad especialmente vulnerable a la variabilidad climática actual. Este estudio analiza las prácticas de adaptación en huertas familiares mapuche-pewenche del Sur de los Andes, mediante un enfoque metodológico mixto predominantemente cuali…
Livelihood resilience: The role of social‐ecological filters in a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System of southern Chile
The global agrifood system faces significant threats due to rapid and interconnected social‐ecological changes, including climate change, land‐use shifts, demographic changes and emerging diseases. Small‐scale farmers are among the most vulnerable groups to these changes due to their direct dependence on their environment. The resilience of small‐scale farming livelihoods may be influenced by several social‐ecological filters, which are the coupl…
Socio-ecological changes in the Southern Andes: Transformations in Pewenche seasonality
Climate change has a direct impact on the seasons. These changes can significantly impact communities living in close interdependence with their territories, such as Indigenous Peoples. Furthermore, these impacts are often entangled and reinforced by other ecological and social processes that affect how communities organise themselves. Drawing from ethnographic research complemented by the life story of a Pewenche woman, this article analyses the…
Transformación del patrimonio biocultural en el archipiélago de Chiloé: Un Sistema Importante del Patrimonio Agrícola Mundial
Peasant family farming is characterized by its resilience to change, although it is exposed to drivers of socio-environmental transformation. We study the historical and contemporary drivers of change that have influenced the loss of biocultural heritage in the Rilán peninsula, a rural space in the Chiloe archipelago, in southern Chile that has been recognized by FAO as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System (GIAHS). Between September …
Crecimiento y fragmentación del periurbano valdiviano. Efectos del urbanismo neoliberal en una ciudad intermedia del sur de Chile
Valdivia, en el sur de Chile, posee privilegiadas características naturales y paisajísticas por sus ríos y humedales, que la transforman en una ciudad intermedia especialmente atractiva para vivir. Esto ha generado presiones en el periurbano, espacio de alto interés para nuevos residentes y agentes inmobiliarios, quienes, a través de loteos y parcelaciones de agrado transadas a elevados precios, propician procesos de especulación del suelo y frag…
Biocultural heritage construction and community-based tourism in an important indigenous agricultural heritage system of the southern Andes
Traditional agricultural systems reflect the close relationship between human communities and local ecosystems. The inheritance of knowledge, practices and beliefs, in which this relationship is materialised, or biocultural memory, is key for these systems' conservation and adaptation to social-environmental changes. Heritage construction processes may be used in a bid to conserve and increase awareness of this inheritance. Tourism is one alterna…
The climate itself must have hidden some medicines: Traditional veterinary medicine of indigenous and non-indigenous campesinos of the southern Andes
Background Traditional veterinary medicine (TVM) or ethnoveterinary medicine comprises knowledge, practices, and beliefs about farm animals. Its study serves to offer ecologically and culturally appropriate strategies for the management of animals and their health in a context marked by the increased use of synthetic pharmaceuticals, social-environmental degradation, pollution, and climate change. In this study, we examine the TVM that Mapuche an…

Lifestyle Migration and the Nascent Agroecological Movement in the Andean Araucanía, Chile: Is It Promoting Sustainable Local Development
Amenity and lifestyle migration is a global phenomenon that may be considered an agent of transformation of the local dynamics of rural areas. This new migratory trend has been observed in the last few years in the Andean Araucanía in southern Chile, an area rich in natural and cultural attractions. Migrants to the region who are proponents of agroecology—considered in the broad sense of the term as practice, theory, and social movement—have soug…
Urban growth trends in midsize Chilean cities: The case of Temuco
Academic production about the main Chilean cities exceeds the existing documentation on intermediate cities, though they have shown interesting trends patterns in recent years which have changed the urban system in Chile. This paper aimed to analyze the urban growth processes in Chilean intermediate cities using Temuco as a case study. It begins with an historical look at the city and then mentions that in the last decades this kind of cities hav…
Transformaciones locales y nuevas funcionalidades económicas vinculadas a las migraciones por amenidad en la Patagonia chilena: El caso de Malalcahuello, una villa de montaña
La migración por amenidad en las áreas rurales de montaña del sur de Chile es un proceso que no ha sido suficientemente abordado por la academia. Sin embargo, éste comienza a ser relevante y se transforma en un factor de cambio de los espacios rurales. Este artículo explora los cambios sociales y económicos atribuidos a la migración por amenidad observados en Malalcahuello, una localidad de montaña ubicada en la región de la Araucanía. La llegada…
Local Transformations and New Economic Functionalities Generated by Amenity Migration in Northern Chilean Patagonia: Exploring Malalcahuello, a Small Mountain Village
Amenity migration in the mountain regions of southern Chile is a phenomenon that academia has not analysed very often. However, it has gained greater prominence in recent years and is becoming an important factor in generating change in these rural areas. This paper presents the results of the economic and social transformations observed in Malalcahuello, a mountain village in northern Chilean Patagonia that finds itself in an emerging stage of t…
