Ethnographic research on Chilean ecosystems regeneration and Poly-faces projects toward life sustaining society
Summary
Situated at the nexus between nature and society (Weng, 2015, 135) this ethnographic research proposes to investigate how actors, through their poly-faces projects in central Chile, feel, think and strategically act according to their values while navigating through the ruins of our modern world, in a time of advanced disaster capitalism and collapse of ecosystems. The investigation aimed at a socially articulated and historically contingent ethnographic account (McClintock, 2015, 72) of ecosystem regeneration narratives deployed in the context of two poly-faces projects, one being Pio Pio Cultural Center For Sustainability, the other one being Eduardo Caceres reforestation project.
