Abstract

The text reflects on a research project-participative event relating to cuisine and gastronomy, in this case, native cuisine in the South of Chile. This led us to reflect on the touristification of territory and food, and its implications for repolitising sense of place. The case study affords a perspective of how the processes of patrimonialization and turistification are heterogeneously experienced and power struggles as a result, existing the risk that the perspective of "the other" be imposed on what is "fair" and produce new versions of cultural colonisation.
