Transformaciones de los modos de significar el espacio habitado Skewes Vodanovic, Juan Carlos Trujillo Bilbao, Felipe Guerra Maldonado, Debbie Inhabiting suggests interconnecting spaces and emotions. Early social life experiences provide the world with key connotations that grant ontological security to subjects. The emotional grid of habitation enables recreating spaces of certainty, even in ever-changing territories. The expansion of capital into rural areas imposes forms of territorialization that constrain every aspect of local life, reducing the dimensions upon which habitation forms and practices are based and jeopardizing emotional constructions associated to a given place. This paper suggests that, in such circumstances, the long-term presence of inhabitants –and other variables– depends on the modification of their emotional connection with their environment. The experience of small farmers in Colliguay, central Chile in their reconversion into apiculture reveal the reinvention of the local space and the generation of emotions associated with a territory that gives new meanings to once-ignored dimensions: these events take place in a scenario where life dimensions have been dramatically reduced (from seeds to pollen and from cattle to hives), which however enable the creation of emotional bonds to aspects related to this new activity. Together with highlighting the emergence of renewed types of emotional attachments in inhabited space, this paper stresses the access to autonomy and sustainability opportunities provided by these scenarios. El habitar invita a entrelazar espacios y emociones. A partir de las experiencias iniciales de la vida social, el mundo adquiere connotaciones fundantes que, para el sujeto, proveen seguridad ontológica. La trama emocional del habitar permite recrear los espacios de certeza aun en territorios en permanente transformación. La expansión del capital en zonas rurales impone formas de territorialización que constriñen los ámbitos de vida local, reduciendo las escalas en las que se sostienen las prácticas y formas de habitar, y que ponen en jaque las construcciones emocionales asociadas a un lugar. Se sugiere aquí que, en tales escenarios, la permanencia de los habitantes –además de otras variables– depende de la modificación de sus formas de vinculación emocional con el medio. La experiencia de pequeños productores rurales de Colliguay en la zona central de Chile, en su tránsito hacia la apicultura, da cuenta de la reinvención del espacio local y de la generación de emociones conjugadas con un territorio que se abre con nuevos significados en aquellas dimensiones antes ignoradas, ya que el cambio ocurre en el contexto de una disminución radical de la escala de vida (de la semilla al polen, del ganado a las colmenas) que, no obstante, permite el reencuentro afectivo con aspectos del medio proporcionales a este nuevo ejercicio. Junto con destacar la emergencia de formas renovadas de vinculación emocional instituidas en el espacio habitado, se destacan la autonomía y la sustentabilidad a que se accede en estos escenarios.

description Inhabiting suggests interconnecting spaces and emotions. Early social life experiences provide the world with key connotations that grant ontological security to subjects. The emotional grid of habitation enables recreating spaces of certainty, even in ever-changing territories. The expansion of capital into rural areas imposes forms of territorialization that constrain every aspect of local life, reducing the dimensions upon which habitation forms and practices are based and jeopardizing emotional constructions associated to a given place. This paper suggests that, in such circumstances, the long-term presence of inhabitants –and other variables– depends on the modification of their emotional connection with their environment. The experience of small farmers in Colliguay, central Chile in their reconversion into apiculture reveal the reinvention of the local space and the generation of emotions associated with a territory that gives new meanings to once-ignored dimensions: these events take place in a scenario where life dimensions have been dramatically reduced (from seeds to pollen and from cattle to hives), which however enable the creation of emotional bonds to aspects related to this new activity.
