Abstract

In this article we explore the role of disruption and restructuring of urban infrastructure networks in the context of shock policies. Our viewpoint comes from a perspective developed under critical geography, urban political ecology, and political economy. We analyze the evolution of infrastructure in Chile since the military coup d’état in 1973 up to now, linking political cycles of dictatorship and political transition to infrastructure crisis and resilience. As we problematize these concepts, our focus is on the relationship between infrastructure development policies, at national and international scale, with urban transformations, specifically in Santiago de Chile.
