Abstract

La educación ha sido una prioridad central para Chile desde el retorno a la democracia en 1990. Gracias a un sostenido crecimiento económico y a un compromiso por aumentar la inversión pública en educación, Chile ha realizado mejoramientos claves en su sistema educacional en este período. Una reforma reciente asegura doce años de escolaridad obligatoria y gratis para todos los niños de Chile. La matrícula en educación secundaria se ha expandido rápidamente y los salarios de los profesores han aumentado en un 140%. Si continúan las tendencias actuales, más de 800.000 estudiantes ingresarán a la educación superior en 2010. Chile ha logrado mucho en un corto período de tiempo. Ha mejorado la calidad de la educación y el acceso a todos sus niveles, convirtiéndose así en el país líder de América Latina en este aspecto. Revisión de Políticas Nacionales de Educación: Chile cubre todo el sistema de educación del país, desde la educación parvularia a la educación superior y también el aprendizaje a lo largo de la vida para todos. Asimismo, analiza el sistema en términos de su impacto económico, social y político. Esta revisión está basada en la permanente cooperación con las economías no miembros de todo el mundo. Es particularmente interesante tanto para aquellos profesionales involucrados en políticas educacionales, como para los  que trabajan directamente en el sistema educacional de Chile.

Abstract

"This book attempts to place in historical perspective the evolution of Chilean rural society from its foundation in the sixteenth century to 1975 and especially to explain the unusual result of accelerated economic growth after 1860. The study is placed in the broader context of general Chilean development and the rise of the Atlantic market. Professor Bauer also points out the connections and similarities between the Chilean case and other areas peripheral to the expanding world economy. Chapters are devoted to markets, prices and credit, but the main part of the book is concerned with the social and political impact of economic expansion on rural workers and the land-owning classes. A detailed explanation of agrarian structure and the position and importance of landlord and peon within national development is essential for an understanding of modern Latin America. This book is a contribution to that understanding and people interested in other times and places will find in the experience of Chile an instructive contrast in the larger pattern on modern history."--Publisher description.

Abstract

This book, which is based on 15 months of ethnographic research in the city of Alto Hospicio in northern Chile, describes how its inhabitants use social networks and the effects on their daily lives. Nell Haynes argues that social networks are a place where residents of Alto Hospicio, or hospice, express their feelings of marginalization as a result of living in a city far from the national capital and with a notoriously low quality of life compared to other areas urban in Chile.

Abstract

Writing under the pseudonym "Jotabeche," José Joaquín Vallejo wrote 41 short articles on Chilean life and society in the early republic. Known for their caustic wit, his writings were an instant success when they were first published in Chilean magazines and newspapers. This volume presents these vivid essays for the first time in English. Vallejo made famous the style of writing termed "costumbrista" - sketches and vignettes of society and local customs. He focused on the Norte Chico, or the mining zone of Copiapo where he was born and where he lived most of his later life. His essays include vivid studies of mineworkers; the advancement of modernity in the steamships at Caldera; the religious, intensely cultural province of Copiap;̤ and the general atmosphere of liberalism beginning to pervade the country of Chile during that time.

Abstract

This is a study of the relations between Britain and Chile during the Spanish American independence era (1806-1831). These relations were characterised by a dynamic, unpredictable, and changing nature, imperialism being only one and not the exclusive way to define them. The book explores how Britons and Chileans perceived each other from the perspective of cultural history, considering the consequences of these 'cultural encounters' for the subsequent nation-state building process in Chile. From 1806 to 1831 both British and Chilean 'state' and 'non-state' actors interacted across several different 'contact zones', and thereby configured this relationship in multiple ways. Although the extensive presence of 'non-state' actors (missionaries, seamen, educators and merchants) was a manifestation of the 'expansion' of British interests to Chile, they were not necessarily an expression of any British imperial policy. There were multiple attitudes, perceptions, representations and discourses by Chileans on the role played by Britain in the world, which changed depending on the circumstances. Likewise, for Britons, Chile was represented in multiple ways, the image of Chile acting as a pathway to other markets and destinations being the most remarkable. All these had repercussions in the early nation-building process in Chile.
