description Urban quality of life is one of the main concerns of metropolitan cities in Latin America. According to many studies, it is possible to notice that there is a significant pattern of territorial inequality which usually affects the largest part of the local population. In the case of Chile, the reality faced by the metropolitan cities around Santiago, Valparaíso and Concepción, follows this trend, and the role played by municipal investment is particularly relevant. From this perspective, this study investigates the impact of municipal investment on urban quality of life. Public municipal investment undergoes a more detailed analysis. We found that the financing mechanisms that operate with greater autonomy from the federal government – basically, municipal and regional investment – do not have a significant impact on urban quality of life, and private investment becomes more present, although in a discretionary fashion.

According to many studies, it is possible to notice that there is a significant pattern of territorial inequality which usually affects the largest part of the local population. In the case of Chile, the reality faced by the metropolitan cities around Santiago, Valparaíso and Concepción, follows this trend, and the role played by municipal investment is particularly relevant. From this perspective, this study investigates the impact of municipal investment on urban quality of life. Public municipal investment undergoes a more detailed analysis. We found that the financing mechanisms that operate with greater autonomy from the federal government – basically, municipal and regional investment – do not have a significant impact on urban quality of life, and private investment becomes more present, although in a discretionary fashion. La calidad de vida urbana constituye una de las preocupaciones principales en las ciudades metropolitanas en Latinoamérica, conforme variados estudios dan cuenta de que existe un patrón de desigualdad territorial importante y que, por lo general, afecta a la mayoría de la población residente. En el caso de Chile, la realidad que enfrentan las tres ciudades metropolitanas en torno a Santiago, Valparaíso y Concepción sigue esta tendencia, siendo particularmente relevante el rol que juega la inversión municipal. Desde dicha perspectiva, esta investigación intenta una aproximación al impacto de la inversión municipal en la calidad de vida urbana; se analiza con mayor aproximación la inversión municipal pública, y se muestra que los mecanismos de financiamiento que operan con mayor autonomía del nivel central de gobierno – básicamente inversión municipal y regional – no tienen una incidencia significativa en la calidad de vida urbana, siendo la inversión privada un agente más incidente, sin embargo de manera discriminatoria. 2017-08-06 2022-03-17T19:05:52Z 2022-03-17T19:05:52Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/2236-9996.2017-3913 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/53616 spa https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/2236-9996.2017-3913/23352 Copyright (c) 2017 Cadernos Metrópole. application/pdf Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo Cadernos Metrópole; Vol. 19 Núm. 39 (2017): financeirização, mercantilização e urbanismo neoliberal; 665-686 Cadernos Metrópole; v. 19 n. 39 (2017): financeirização, mercantilização e urbanismo neoliberal; 665-686 2236-9996 1517-2422
