Abstract
El pueblo mapuche ha sufrido a lo largo de su historia un continuo proceso de usurpación. La apropiación de sus territorios ancestrales y la expansión indiscriminada de las plantaciones forestales han ocasionado una serie de problemáticas que han desvinculado a dicho pueblo de su territorio natural, desvalorizando así su identidad. Sin embargo, aún es posible apreciar un importante
legado inmerso en el territorio, fruto de la acumulación y superposición de sucesos históricos, sociales y culturales, y que resulta esencial para sus comunidades. Reconocer la estructura cultural inserta en este territorio será fundamental para la revalorización del paisaje cultural mapuche. El presente estudio intentará por lo tanto, definir a partir de un caso de estudio determinado –la Comuna de Arauco– una serie de estrategias y acciones dirigidas a proteger, recuperar y revalorizar aquellos elementos que componen su paisaje cultural, con el objetivo de reivindicar y potenciar la identidad
usurpada.
The Mapuche people have suffered sustained encroachment throughout history. The misappropriation of their ancestral lands and the wholesale expansion of forest plantations have caused multiple issues, resulting in their disconnection from their natural lands and the further downgrading of their identity. There is still a strong legacy embedded in their territory, however, resulting from the buildup and overlapping of historical, social and cultural events, all crucial for Mapuche communities. Acknowledging the cultural arrangements entrenched in that territory will be critical for the revalorization of the Mapuche cultural landscape. Based on a specific case study –the Commune of Arauco– this work attempts to define several strategies and actions aimed at protecting, recovering and revalorizing the elements that make up the Mapuche cultural landscape in order to assert and reinforce their usurped identity.
