摘要
A Latourian actor-network analysis of social narratives about climate change in the city of Concepcion and the strategies of collective adaptation to climate change deployed by two social groups shows a difference in people's relationships with nature. The discourses of climate change in the city view it as a backdrop about which not much can be done and hold more powerful others responsible for causing it and for dealing with it. In contrast, in the settlement of Aguita de la Perdiz and among the peasants of the agro-ecological movement in the Bio-Bio Region, climate change is not simply a backdrop but a threat to their quality of life and subsistence, an actant that brings agency to their socio-techno-natural networks, and they have developed measures to control its potential destructive effects. Un analisis actor-red latouriano de narrativas sociales sobre el cambio climatico en la ciudad de Concepcion y las estrategias de adaptacion colectiva al cambio climatico empleadas por dos grupos sociales muestran una diferencia en las relaciones de las personas con la naturaleza. Los discursos sobre el cambio climatico en la ciudad lo presentan como un trasfondo sobre el cual no se puede hacer mucho, y declaran responsables a otros mas poderosos por causarlo y por tratarlo. En contraste, en el asentamiento de Aguita de la Perdiz y entre los campesinos del movimiento agro-ecologico en la Region Bio-Bio, el cambio climatico no es simplemente un trasfondo sino una amenaza a su calidad de vida y subsistencia, un activador que otorga agencia a sus redes socio-tecno-naturales, y han elaborado medidas para controlar sus potenciales efectos destructivos.
