ACUMULACIóN POR DESPOSESIóN Y RESPUESTAS LOCALES EN EL REMODELAJE DE LOS PAISAJES ESTUARIALES DEL SUR DE CHILEDOI: 10.4067/S0717-73562010000200008 Keywords: political ecology accumulation by dispossession, capitalist expansion in chile, estuaries and coastal landscapes. Abstract: expressions of an intense resistance to capitalist expansion have been verified in three estuaries in chilean's southern coastal range, expressions that are materialized in diverse landscape configurations. the environment furnishes residents with resources that help them to stop and to limit the expansion based on dispossession. the comparison of three estuarine environments (rivers lingue, chaihuín and llesquehue) makes evident that: (i) accumulation by dispossession is multifarious, (ii) the resources established historically as part of the landscape shape the outcome of such processes, and (iii) accumulation finds diverse forms of expression in the landscape, conditioning the local population?s social organization, sustainability and future. from this analysis we formúlate a typology that allows us to characterize local responses to capitalist expansion.
