II.G. 2 Price: $U.S. 1.50; 11-stg.; Sw. fr. 6.00 (or equivalent in other currencies) LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL Santiago, Chile November 1953 Sir, The fourth session of the Economic Commission for Latin America at Mexico City adopted resolution 10 (IV) stating that, "in view of the importance of industrial studies to the economic development of Latin America, . studies should be carried out as soon as possible on the steel, wood-pulp and paper, basic chemicals . industries". In regard to the proposed study of the pulp and paper industry, the resolution indicated that the Secretariat should seek the collaboration of the Food and Agriculture Organization. Accordingly, after con- sultation with the Director-General of the Food and Agriculture Organization, a joint study was undertaken, having as its main object to determine: a) Present and future demand for paper and for chemical and mechanical pulp; b) The region's existing capacity to manufacture these products, and the present and future need for developing such capacity; c) The adequacy of potential raw material resources for maintaining the necessary development of the industry; and d) The manufacturing methods which can be adapted to Latin-American raw materials. The results of this study appear in the present report, a preliminary version of which was submitted to the fifth session of the Economic Commission for Latin America, held in Rio de Janeiro in April 1953.

  • A Posthumanist Account of the Río Cruces Disaster in Valdivia, Chile
    SWANS, ECOLOGICAL STRUGGLES AND ONTOLOGICAL FRACTURES: A Posthumanist Account of the Río Cruces Disaster in Valdivia, Chile by Claudia Sepúlveda A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (Geography) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) February 2016 © Claudia Sepúlveda, 2016 Abstract This is a dissertation on ontological struggles –that is, struggles between competing ways of performing the world. More precisely, I study the ontological opening resulting from such struggles once what I call dominant performations are exposed to revision and room is made for non-dominant ontologies, such as alternative human/nature entanglements. I analyze the ontological opening provoked by a landmark event in Valdivia, Chile: the Río Cruces ecological disaster that since 2004 has affected a protected wetland and its colony of black-necked swans. The disaster, that followed the installation of a new pulp-mill by ARAUCO, one of the world’s largest pulpwood companies, sparked an unprecedented mobilization with long-lasting effects. Staying close to the “doings” of the actors, my political ontological interpretation describes, first, how the disaster exposed ARAUCO’s environmental practices as constitutive of its way of performing the forest business and, doing so, also fractured Chile’s until then dominant business model. Second, I describe how the disaster revealed the workings of environmental procedures and the techno-scientific knowledges upon which they were based provoking the breakdown of Chile’s environmental edifice and its ensuing reform. Third, I follow the ontological struggle that the disaster unleashed around Valdivia’s identity once dominant performations tied to the city’s industrial past were confronted.

It has one million hectares of fibre plantations in South America and it owns seven pulp mills, nine saw mills, 30 panel mills and 13 energy plants. It has operations in Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, the United States of America, Canada, Spain, Portugal, Germany and South Africa.

In 2018, Arauco announced it will proceed with its MAPA project, which includes building a new pulp mill line at its Horcones mill. This will intensify the social and environmental impacts already caused by Arauco's plantations. It may also further fuel the conflict between forestry companies in general and the Mapuche people, over access to land.
