Aprendizaje en la gobernanza territorial: construcción de lenguaje, coordinación y acuerdos entre los actores del periurbano

Abstract

In recent years, research has been done on participation, however, the collective learning of actors is not addressed and there is a lack of knowledge of this process. This research asks: How do local actors learn and build a common technical language, coordination and agreements in the peri-urban territory of Melipilla? The analysis focuses on a modification of the Communal Regulatory Plan (PRC) carried out between November 2013 and December 2015. Thus, the objective of this research is to understand the collective learning process of local actors in the construction of their relationships. Then, a brief conceptual framework is developed about governance, learning and the link between the two is established. Semi-structured interviews with local actors are carried out and content analysis technique is applied in the method. The results are divided into two components: the perception of learning in the process of coordination and agreements, as well as the learning of technical language. Finally, this research contributes to the verification of a group learning of external origin on coordination and the construction of agreements, the difficulty in the technical use of language and the absence of creation of new language.
