- Abstract:
- Urban and regional reconstruction after the February 27, 2010, earthquake and tsunami in Chile was organized by master plans at the local level. These plans, based on public-private partnerships, can be considered an innovation as an instrument of postdisaster reconstruction. They emerged as a commitment to privatization of urban planning in Chile. An analysis of two master plans based on field research carried out between 2011 and 2014 reveals that they had limited impact because of weak public-private ties, lack of comprehensiveness, and lack of legitimacy. They can be read as failed attempts at neoliberal deepening at the level of urban and regional administration. Después del terremoto y del sunami del 27 de febrero de 2010 en Chile la reconstrucción urbana y regional fue organizada usando planes maestros a nivel local. Estos planes, con base en alianzas público-privadas, pueden considerarse una innovación como instrumento de reconstrucción posterior a un desastre. Surgieron como una transigencia con la privatización de la planificación urbana en Chile. El análisis de dos planes maestros con base en el trabajo de campo que se llevó a cabo entre 2011 y 2014 revela que esos planes tuvieron un impacto limitado debido a la debilidad de los lazos entre el sector público y el sector privado, la falta de un enfoque amplio y la falta de legitimidad. Se pueden entender como esfuerzos fallidos de la profundización neoliberal al nivel de la administración urbana y regional.
