Más allá del folclore. La producción social del espacio a través de la cueca urbana en Santiago de Chile (2000-2010)

Spencer Espinosa, Christian

Keywords: space, identity, Urban cueca

Abstract

This text resorts to the concepts of lo- cality and neighborhood to explain how the Santiago’s cueca urbana music scene creates spatial events that go beyond the urban-rural dichotomy. It aims at de- monstrating how this dance territorializes urban identity, thus creating a geographic memory rooted in neighborhoods. The text also aims to explain how performance is a means to criticize the current configuration of public space; through it, resistance is opposed to Santiago urban planning. The article starts by explaining the concepts of “locality”, “place”, and “city” and goes on to detail Santiago urban planning policies in the last half century, explaining the importance of places for performance and sociability, describing the importance of the concept of neighborhood and giving an example of the arguments above through a cueca event.
