The dual hierarchy of economic development and local government in Chile: The case of Salmoniculture and Chilean municipalities

Abstract

Based on the recent processes of regional restructuring and development of Chiloé province, Chile, traditional communities are faced with the ‘glocalisation’ of their economic base and socio-cultural aspects. The views of the municipalities regarding the impacts generated by the salmonera industry and the powers of the local level to manage them are highlighted. It is clear that the salmoniculture in Chiloé does not seem to lead to a successful example of spatial restructuring, with the development of a global innovation system, without local actors being integrated and influencing the decisions taken in the territories over which they have a democratic role and responsibility. It is clear that there is a double hierarchy between local political and administrative responsibilities and the public-private apparatus to promote local economic development, which weakens democratic local structures in the pursuit of national economic growth.
