CHAPTER 5 Transport and Air Quality in Santiago, Chile
CHAPTER 5 Transport and air quality in Santiago, Chile M. Osses1 & R. Fernández2 1Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Chile, Chile. 2Department of Civil Engineering, University of Chile, Chile. Abstract This chapter offers a review of the evolution of the transport system in Santiago de Chile during the period 2000–2010, and the implications of local transport policy on vehicle emissions and air quality. The chapter comprises five sections, starting with a general overview of the Metropolitan Region of Santiago and its population, as well as a description of the current transport system. The relationship between transport and air quality is analysed for the period 1991– 2001, describing car ownership and modal split trends, the technological evolution of vehicles, pollutant emissions from transport, and air quality trends. Finally, a critical review of Santiago’s transport policy is made, using the main programs of the 2001–2010 Urban Transport Plan for Santiago as a case study. The new public transport plan is included in this critical analysis (Transantiago), as well as a set of short-term strategies, road investment and car-use regulations, and non-motorized transport plans for pedestrians and cyclists in the city. Transport trends, however, show that Santiago is following the well-known car- public transport vicious circle that developed countries have gone through. This may offset the environmental effects from vehicle and transport improvements within the city. 1 Urban characteristics of Santiago The Metropolitan Region of Santiago, Chile, has a population of 6.1 million inhabitants, concentrating 40% of the whole population in the country. According to the latest census, the population of the Metropolitan Region of Santiago has grown by 15.3% during the last 10 years [1].

Santiago, Always Looking, Never Finding
Santiago, always looking, never finding. Who would help me To disarm your ancient history And from pieces to conquer you again A city I want to have for everyone built That feeds whoever wants to enjoy. (Luis Lebert, To my City) Anyone who approaches Santiago with open-mindedness will enjoy a city that has never stopped making and remaking itself, as if it always wanted to know why it is here, what it is doing here, where it is going. Santiago does not have a unique identity, on the contrary, it is always multiple, it is the identity given to it by its people, its neighborhoods and by landscape, the ever present mountain range of the Andes that marks the orientation and the seasons. You will not find here a nation or a people, but a fragmented and reconstituted history, made over and over again, full of small and great contradictions, sometimes with great inequities, and others with great generosity. A city destroyed and rebuilt dozens of times in its history, either by the earthquakes or avenues of the rivers, or in its origin by the old inhabitants. You will not find old buildings, accordingly. The oldest, the Church of San Francisco, begun in 1572, is on its feet and has heroically resisted great earthquakes, probably because in its foundations was used Inca technology of large stone boulders that absorbed the displacement of the earth. Scarce is then the antique Santiago. Spanish colonial buildings disappeared. Here and there you will find buildings from the 19th century, sometimes entire districts, many of them devotees of the French style of the Belle Epoque.

Santiago Del Nuevo Extremo Fue Fundada El 14 De Febrero De 1541
Visitor Guide Regional Bureau of Education for Latin America and the Caribbean OREALC/UNESCO Santiago CHILE Southwest of South America, Chile is located between 17º 30' and 90º south latitude. Its continental longitude is approximately 4,200 km, or 8,000 km if you consider the Chilean Antarctica. Easter Island ‘Isla de Pascua’ or ‘Rapa Nui’, the Archipelago of Juan Fernandez, San Felix, San Ambrosio, Sala and Gomez Islands are also part of the Chilean Territory. BORDERS. Chile shares a common border with Peru to the North, with Bolivia and Argentina to the East, to the West, it limit is the Pacific Ocean, and to the South, the South Pole. SURFACE. Continental territory and islands: 756,626 km2 Antarctic territory 1,250,000 km2 Total area: 2,006,626 km2. TERRITORIAL ORGANIZATION. In 1979, Chile was divided into thirteen regions, which are subdivided into provinces, which, in turn, are divided into communes. Each region is associated to a Roman numeral in order from North to South, except for the Metropolitan Region of Santiago, the only region without access to the ocean. Upon the creation of two new regions, the numeration of the regions lost its meaning, and now the Chilean use de names of the each region (ex. Región de los Lagos). To date, the country is made up of 15 regions, 54 provinces and 346 communes. GOVERNMENT SYSTEM. The current constitution has been in force since 1980. The State is separated in to three powers: Executive Power, exercised by the President of the Republic; Legislative Power, shared by the House of Representatives and the Senate; and Judicial Power.

Estilos De Vida E Imaginarios Urbanos En Nuevos Residentes De Lastarria Y Bellas Artes: El Barrio Patrimonial Como Escenario De Diversidad, Distinción Y Movilidad
vol 43 | no 129 | mayo 2017 | pp. 165-186 | artículos | ©EURE 165 Estilos de vida e imaginarios urbanos en nuevos residentes de Lastarria y Bellas Artes: el barrio patrimonial como escenario de diversidad, distinción y movilidad Christian Matus. Universidad de Concepción, Concepción, Chile. resumen | El proceso de transformación cultural desarrollado durante la última década en el barrio Lastarria / Bellas Artes de Santiago de Chile, parece ejemplificar cómo las nuevas generaciones de residentes del centro urbano construyen cultura urbana y esti- los de vida a partir de nuevas prácticas, representaciones e imaginarios sobre el barrio y lo patrimonial. Con el apoyo de una estrategia que articula técnicas cuantitativas y cualitativas, se analiza la evolución histórica y estado actual del proceso de transforma- ción del barrio, para profundizar en un análisis de los imaginarios que los nuevos resi- dentes construyen en relación con el barrio patrimonial. Se concluye que en los nuevos residentes no existe una representación compartida sobre el patrimonio y el barrio, sino más bien una tensión entre tres imaginarios: el barrio como isla de diversidad, el barrio como escenario de distinción y el barrio como escenario de movilidad barrial. Los resultados presentan críticamente las posibilidades y limitantes que tiene la cons- trucción de estilos de vida asociados a barrios patrimoniales para el logro de una cultura urbana más diversa. Al respecto, se reflexiona acerca de cómo revertir aquellos procesos que tienden a limitar la integración en el barrio y a la homogeneización en el consumo. palabras clave | gentrificación, patrimonio, cultura urbana. abstract | The process of transformation experienced during the last decade in the Lasta- rria neighborhood seems to illustrate how the new generations of residents in urban centers are creating an urban culture and urban lifestyles from new practices, representations and imaginaries about the neighborhoods and heritage.

Material Barrio Estación Central
La Estación Central de Ferrocarriles fue instalada en el mítico barrio de Chuchunco hacia 1863. Dicho espacio correspondía al límite sur poniente de la ciudad republicana. Su asentamiento se vio impulsado por la creación de la Quinta Normal de Agri• cultura (1842) a la cual se accedía a través de la calle Matucana. El barrio se fue transformando, con la creciente inmigración campesina, de principios del siglo XX, que provino desde el sur del país, en lo que podríamos llamar un lugar de frontera, un espacio donde se mezclarían los modos y usos rurales con el estilo propio de una urbe que se industrializa, masifica e intenta alcanzar cierto grado de modernidad. La imponente estructura metálica de la estación marcó un barrio donde se percibía un aroma a arrabal, a límite, a encuentro- desencuentro, a precariedad, a comercio de baratijas, a guapeza. La instalación en sus cercanías, durante la segunda mitad del siglo XIX, de las sedes de las escuelas Normal de Preceptores y de Artes y Oficios (1893), más otras instituciones educacionales, otorgará también aires culturales e intelectuales al sector. La hora de salida y de llegada de los trenes al terminal ferroviario marcó los tiempos del barrio. Sus andenes, atiborrados de gentío, fueron los que tomaron el pulso al crecimiento demo• gráfico de Santiago, igual como lo hicieron los conjuntos habi• tacionales que se levantaron sucesivamente para acoger a las capas bajas y las tiendas comerciales aledañas a la estación. El carácter popular del Barrio Estación Central fue una impronta marcada, pese a que muy cerca, hacia el oriente, todavía en el siglo XX quedaban resabios aristocráticos, ejemplificados en el majestuoso Portal Edwards.

Poverty and Public Health During the Spanish Influenza Epidemic in Chile, 1918-1920
"LOS CULPABLES DE LA MISERIA": POVERTY AND PUBLIC HEALTH DURING THE SPANISH INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC IN CHILE, 1918-1920 A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History By Hugo Alberto Maureira, M.A. Washington, D.C. March 26, 2012 Copyright 2012 by Hugo Alberto Maureira All Rights Reserved ii "LOS CULPABLES DE LA MISERIA": POVERTY AND PUBLIC HEALTH DURING THE SPANISH INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC IN CHILE, 1918-1920 Hugo Alberto Maureira, M.A. Thesis Advisor: Erick D. Langer, Ph.D. ABSTRACT During the Spanish influenza global pandemic, of 1918-1920, tens of thousands of people died in Chile. From the moment that the first cases appeared in Chile, in late September 1918, Chilean physicians argued over the nature and cause of the outbreak. Some argued that it was not Spanish influenza, but epidemic typhus. This study chronicles the events and impact of Spanish influenza on Chile. It also examines the country's public health response as it targeted the working-class and poor. In some cases the response was brutal. In Parral and Concepción, the Brigadas Sanitarias forcibly evicted thousands of people and burned down their homes. The historical record strongly suggests that Chile was struck by Spanish influenza, not a typhus epidemic. Yet, typhus served as a convenient diagnosis for physicians at the time. It fit a certain profile that Chileans had of their country. As a disease, typhus normally affects societies on the verge of collapse.
