Resumen
ROMERO ARAVENA, Hugo; FUENTES CATALAN, Claudio y SMITH GUERRA, Pamela. Geographical, territorial, institutional, and social dimensions of Chile's earthquake on February 27/2010. Cuad. Geogr. Rev. Colomb. Geogr. [online]. 2010, n.19, pp.137-152. ISSN 0121-215X.
Territorial, social, and institutional aspects should be understood as components of disastrous events. However, after the earthquake and tsunami that struck Chile on February 27, 2010, the idea that an earthquake is only a natural event persists. Therefore, no significant progress has been seen in the institutional aspects that claim to deal with the prevention and management of risks and disasters. This is made evident when evaluating the existing territorial ordaining plans for the afected cities, their discussion and approval procedure, and particularly the performance of the institutions responsible for emergency management.
Palabras clave : Chile; earthquake; natural risks; political ecology; territorial ordaining.
