Women with Conciencia
As the term “pobladoras” suggests, women who inhabit this category most frequently appear in scholarly literature and popular discourse in function of their places of residence and activities therein. Scholarship tends to focus on two chronological and thematic areas: women as participants in the precoup pobladores movement for affordable housing (1957–73) and in neighborhood social organizations (e.g., mothers’ centers, subsistence organizations…
Trash Land
In 2020, an estimated 1,500 families built an informal settlement (campamento) on a landfill in Santiago, Chile. This article experiments with an interscalar approach within a critical disaster studies framework to examine nested layers of crisis and opportunity that unfolded over multiple time scales and geographies and contributed to the settlement’s creation. The landfill serves as a site of analysis to generate perspectives on the intersectio…

Protest and the persistence of the past
Protest has long been a motor of change in Chile. In October to December 2019 protesters in Santiago harnessed protest methods and memories of hope and change related to Salvador Allende’s Popular Unity government (1970–3), resistance to the Pinochet dictatorship (1973–90) and discontent with the subsequent decades of neoliberal democracy (1990–2019). The 2019 protests evoked this past in the struggle against the neoliberal system of today. In do…
Patrick William Kelly. Sovereign Emergencies
Patrick William Kelly’s Sovereign Emergencies: Latin America and the Making of Global Human Rights Politics situates Latin America as the primary catalyst in the rise of international human rights discourse and practice during the 1970s and early 1980s. Latin America scholars have long known that state-perpetrated violence under authoritarian regimes in South America spurred and shaped the rise of late twentieth-century transnational human rights…
Diccionario histórico de la dictadura cívico-militar en Chile
This reference work provides an extensive compendium of annotated entries relevant to the Augusto Pinochet Ugarte dictatorship (1973–90) and the postdictatorship period through 2010.

We Cannot Remain Silent
Limitless Land and the Redefinition of Rights
In 1985, the Pinochet dictatorship reversed radical neoliberal urban development policy in response to economic crisis and political pressure mounted by the urban poor in alliance with the Catholic Church and the Left. The regime's free-market policies conflicted with a popular sector political culture that considered housing a right which the state must uphold. To implement its radical policies, the regime sought to change the understanding that…
