MATHEUS E SILVA, Luis Fernando De. Dispossess to accumulate: reflections on the contradictions of the process of neoliberal modernization of Chilean agriculture. Mundo agrar. [online]. 2016, vol.17, n.34, pp.00-00. ISSN 1515-5994.

The intention of this paper is to present a renewed and critical reading about the contradictions engendered by the neoliberal modernization of the Chilean agriculture. This task is carried out through the lens of the "historical-geographical materialism" developed mainly by the British geographer David Harvey, and also through agrarian studies linked to the critical thinking, especially Marxists. As the main empirical substrate, information and data supplied by documents and studies that have sought to understand the specific case of contemporary capitalist development in Chile as well as its consequences for the countryside and national peasants are used. It is sustained here that the mechanisms of "accumulation by dispossession" were (and still are) of critical importance to make Chile a world-wide agricultural and food power.
