description The man aim of this research is to provide new quantitative historical evidence to measure the difference between the standard of living of workers of the Gran Minería del Cobre and other Chilean industrial sectors (such as textiles, food, paper, or cement). A welfare ratio has been estimated to analyze this difference. The results are the following: the wages of workers of the Gran Minería del Cobre were higher in comparison with those of the manufacturing workers, but not as high as the historiography frequently assumes; during the 1940s a process of convergence between wages of copper and manufacturing workers took place; this process of convergence came to an end during the 1950s.

El propósito de esta investigación es proporcionar nueva evidencia histórica que permita comparar el estándar de vida de los trabajadores de la Gran Minería del Cobre con el de otros sectores de la industria nacional (como textiles, alimentos, papel o cemento). Para esto, se ha elaborado un welfare ratio. Los resultados obtenidos fueron los siguientes: los ingresos de los trabajadores de la Gran Minería del Cobre eran comparativamente más altos que los del resto de los trabajadores manufactureros, pero no tanto como la historiografía frecuentemente asume; durante la década del cuarenta del siglo pasado se experimenta un proceso de convergencia entre los ingresos de los trabajadores del cobre y de la manufactura; este proceso de convergencia finaliza durante la década de los cincuenta. 2021-09-13 2022-03-22T15:04:26Z 2022-03-22T15:04:26Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://revistas.ucn.cl/index.php/estudios-atacamenos/article/view/3891 10.22199/issn.0718-1043-2021-0018 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/80342 spa http://revistas.ucn.cl/index.php/estudios-atacamenos/article/view/3891/3874 http://revistas.ucn.cl/index.php/estudios-atacamenos/article/view/3891/3891 Derechos de autor 2021 Mauricio Casanova, Sergio Garrido http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 application/pdf application/epub+zip Universidad Católica del Norte, Instituto de Investigaciones Arqueológicas y Museo Estudios Atacameños; Vol. 67 (2021): Rolling pass; e3891 Estudios Atacameños (En línea); Vol. 67 (2021): Publicación continua; e3891 0718-1043 0716-0925 10.22199/issn.0718-1043-2021
