  • By Amalia Damgaard
    By Private Chef Amalia Damgaard CHILEAN PANORAMA Although it appears slim and small, Chile is a long and narrow country about the size of Texas, with a vast coast line covering about 3,998 miles. The Pacific Ocean borders to the west; Argentina is a neighbor to the east; Bolivia, to the northeast; and Peru, to the north. Because of its geographical location, Chile has an unusual and fun landscape, with deserts, beaches, fjords, glaciers and icebergs, fertile lands, the Andes mountains, over 600 volcanoes (some active), and sub-artic conditions in the South. Since Chile is below the equator, their seasons are different from ours in the United States. So, when we have winter they have summer, and so on. Even though Chile had years of political and economic turmoil, it has evolved into a market-oriented economy with strong foreign trade. Currently, it has the strongest economy in South America, with a relatively-low crime rate, and a high standard of living. Chile is a land rich in beauty, culture, and literature. It is called “the Switzerland of South America” because of its natural splendor. World renowned poets, Pablo Neruda and Gabriela Mistral, won Nobel Prizes. The majority of Chileans are descendants of Europeans, namely Spanish, French, and German, and others in smaller numbers. Allegedly, the original inhabitants of the region prior to Spanish conquest were not natives but merely nomads who lived in the area. Their descendants are today about 3% of the population. A mixture of the so-called natives and European settlers is called “mestizo.” Today’s mestizos are so well blended that they look mostly European.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In the past 20 years, Chile and Venezuela have followed divergent paths of democratic and economic development. When the Cold War ended, Venezuela was one of the few Latin American countries where democracy had survived the authoritarian wave of the 1960s and 1970s. Heralded in the late 1980s as the most stable democracy and one of the most developed and globalized economies in the region, Venezuela has since experienced deterioration of democratic institutions, political polarization, economic stagnation, and instability.

    REGIONALISMO Y CENTRALISMO CULINARIO EN UN MANUSCRITO HUANCAÍNO DEL SIGLO XIX: INFLUENCIAS Y SABORES 143 REGIONALISMO Y CENTRALISMO CULINARIO EN UN MANUSCRITO HUANCAÍNO DEL SIGLO XIX: INFLUENCIAS Y SABORES REGIONALISM AND CULINARY CENTRALISM IN A 19TH CENTURY HUANCAYO MANUSCRIPT: INFLUENCES AND FLAVORS Sergio Zapata Acha Universidad de San Martín de Porres, Perú Recibido: 24 de junio de 2019 Aceptado: 21 de julio de 2019 RESUMEN El estudio de recetarios reviste la mayor importancia para comprender la evolución de una cocina. En Perú son escasos los recetarios publicados en el siglo XIX. Con más de 300 recetas, el manuscrito Copia de comidas para el uso de la señorita Isabel Gertrudis Alfaro, fechado en Huancayo en 1897, es significativo debido a que presenta una selección amplia de recetas que comprende entradas, sopas, segundos, postres y bebidas; entre las cuales una veintena de comidas andinas revisten carácter de originalidad, y cuya codificación es documentada por primera vez. El objetivo de este estudio es mostrar, mediante el registro, la influencia del centralismo culinario limeño dominante en una importante región andina; además, exponer la existencia de comidas mestizas regionales con aportes nativos e hispanos, así como, la influencia de comidas italianas, producto de la inmigración registrada principalmente en la segunda mitad del siglo XIX. Palabras clave: manuscrito, recetas, cocina, Huancayo, Perú, influencias, sabores, patrimonio culinario. ABSTRACT The study of cookbooks is of the greatest importance to understand the evolution of a cuisine. In Peru, the recipes published in the 19th century are scarce. With more than 300 recipes, the manuscript Copia de comidas para el uso de la señorita Isabel Gertrudis Alfaro, dated in Huancayo in 1897, is significant because it presents a wide selection of recipes that includes appetizers, soups, main dishes, desserts and drinks; among which about twenty Andean foods are original, and whose coding is documented for the first time.

  • Venezuela Vs. Chile
    VENEZUELA VS. CHILE Segment Length: 5:54 minutes Lesson Description: Does capitalism “suck”? Does socialism work better? Why do so many people support socialism? This segment looks at the effects of socialism in Venezuela and contrasts it to Chile, considered one of South America’s most prosperous countries. Concepts and Key Terms: Socialism—An economic system in which the production, distribution, and exchange of products and services is regulated or owned by government. Supporters argue that government control—control by “the people”—is in the best interests of the community as a whole. Free Market—An economic system in which the provision of products and services is generally arranged by buyers and sellers without interference by government. Often used synonymously with capitalism, free enterprise, and laissez-faire. Objectives: Students will be able to: • discuss political and economic changes that impacted Venezuela and Chile. • compare and contrast conditions in Venezuela and Chile. • weigh the effects of socialism and market reforms on a country and on the citizens of that country. Preview Activity and Questions: Have students answer the following question in their notebooks: Do you ever complain about how “tough” life is for you at times? When do you tend to complain? Why then? Use Think, Pair, Share to have students answer the preview question. Ask them to look for similarities and differences in their answers. After a few minutes, poll the students and ask them to explain their answers. Viewing Guide: It is recommended that teachers show the video segment twice: once to allow students to view the video and focus on the issues presented, and once to allow them time to complete the viewing guide.

Barr-Melej Professor of History Robert Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT EIDAHL, BRAD T., Ph.D., December 2017, History Writing the Opposition: Power, Coercion, Legitimacy and the Press in Pinochet's Chile Director of Dissertation: Patrick M. Barr-Melej This dissertation examines the struggle between Chile’s opposition press and the dictatorial regime of Augusto Pinochet Ugarte (1973-1990). It argues that due to Chile’s tradition of a pluralistic press and other factors, and in bids to strengthen the regime’s legitimacy, Pinochet and his top officials periodically demonstrated considerable flexibility in terms of the opposition media’s ability to publish and distribute its products. However, the regime, when sensing that its grip on power was slipping, reverted to repressive measures in its dealings with opposition-media outlets. Meanwhile, opposition journalists challenged the very legitimacy Pinochet sought and further widened the scope of acceptable opposition under difficult circumstances. Ultimately, such resistance contributed to Pinochet’s defeat in the 1988 plebiscite, initiating the return of democracy.

Using original documents I gathered in research trips to Chile and Spain, I am able to reconstruct the debates that went on both sides of the Atlantic over funds, protection from ’ th pirates, and indigenous slavery that so defined Chile s formative 17 century. While my conclusions are unique, frontier residents from Paraguay to northern New Spain were also dealing with volatile indigenous alliances, threats from European enemies, and questions about how their tiny settlements could get and keep the attention of the crown.
