Socioecologías de cuidado. Aportes para pensar el sostenimiento de nuestro mundo en medio de las grietas extractivistas
We inhabit multispecies landscapes that we adapt to our needs, transforming them into habitats with local and global consequences for all those who coexist within them, human and nonhuman alike. In contexts shaped by colonial, neoliberal, and extractivist regimes of disturbance, the sustainability of life has been placed in jeopardy, revitalizing the conversation around care as an analytical horizon for describing human–nature relations that fit …
Domingos sin agua
This paper analyses the costs associated with the supply of drinking water in rural areas under water scarcity, supplied by water trucks. We take a holistic approach to analysing these costs, including indirect or hidden economic costs, as well as the time and health costs to women who are in charge of household chores. The research is theoretically informed by feminist political ecology and applied to a small rural Chilean town located in the Me…
Understanding everyday water experiences through flows
At a time of growing threats to global freshwater availability, urban water supply is becoming increasingly challenging, affecting water security for urban populations. Alternative water sources, technologies, and supply methods are employed to complement dwindling continental water sources and guarantee the human right to water. However, the related research reports that such solutions can exacerbate inequalities and jeopardise water security fo…
The (not-so-free) Chilean water model. The case of the Antofagasta Region, Atacama Desert, Chile
Conocimiento técnico-científico en el conflicto hídrico en Chile
El presente artículo propone un análisis del uso del conocimiento científico en la jurisprudencia nacional respecto del conflicto hídrico en las regiones de Antofagasta y Valparaíso entre los años 2010 y 2017, a través del estudio de las sentencias y entrevistas a informantes claves. Los resultados indican que las pruebas técnico-científicas tienen una consideración dual en los juicios, como un proceso administrativo previo y como información rel…
Desafios de governança da água
Entende-se como governança da água um conjunto de processos e estratégias político, organizacionais e administrativos, dentro de estruturas previamente definidas, que conduzem a tomada de decisão. Essas decisões produzem escalas que vão além de unidades de planejamento de gestão e se constituem em redes de poder que articulam diferentes atores, de acordo com os interesses e objetos em negociação. Assim, entende-se que a governança da água extrapo…
Hacia una ecología política de las nuevas periferias urbanas
Durante las ltimas dcadas la provincia de Chacabuco, en el norte de Santiago, se ha transformado profundamente en trminos territoriales debido a la instalacin de megaproyectos urbanos para segmentos sociales acomodados, en contextos que hasta ese entonces eran eminentemente rurales. Desde la ecologa poltica suburbana analizamos las distintas estrategias econmicas, polticas y metablicas con vista a los recursos del agua y el suelo a travs de las c…
Environmental Justice
Environmental justice is an urban‐born activist movement that evolved to be an analytical frame and an interdisciplinary field of academic research. It is defined as the equal distribution of environmental goods (i.e., good environmental conditions and services) and bads (e.g., contamination), and the equal enforcement of environmental laws and policies on all people, regardless of race, gender, and economic status. The main levels of analysis re…
Desalination and the disarticulation of water resources
In recent years, seawater desalination has become a more viable and common solution to water scarcity around the world. Desalination is a supply‐led solution in that it produces additional water, rather than manages demand for existing resources. Although a growing body of work has analysed the environmental and social implications of desalination, desalinated water has to date been considered as an additional source that fulfils demand, with lit…
Escasez de agua
The current article examines the social origins of water scarcity in Rio Bueno basin, Chile. The political ecology's theoretical framework is employed to assess water scarcity as an "hybrid” phenomenon of socionatural nature, highlighting the development of a frame of "water scarcity typologies”. By employing a combined methodology, we analyzed quantitative and qualitative water related data to reveal the existing water scarcity typologies, who s…
Coal mining on pastureland in Southern Chile; challenging recognition and participation as guarantees for environmental justice
El análisis de flujos energéticos como herramienta de análisis territorial; el caso de la Región Metropolitana de Barcelona
La diversificación de las fuentes energéticas usadas a lo largo de la historia, resultado del creciente consumo de los sistemas socio económicos, ha sido un factor clave tanto en determinar nuestra relación con el medio ambiente, como en la evolución de la economía global y el ordenamiento territorial a todas las escalas geográficas. Una gran mayoría de los estudios relacionados se ha enfocado en el análisis del consumo energético urbano y de los…
