Una propuesta de estudio del Sistema Pesquero-Artesanal en el mar interior de Chiloé a través del paisaje

The complexity of coastal societies and our country dependence on fishery resources makes it necessary to look for research approaches that account for both spatial and temporal aspects. A theoretical-methodological proposal of historical-geographical analysis is proposed for the study of the artisanal-fishing system in the inland sea of Chiloe, through the construction of a broad definition of landscape. The evolution of the landscape concept in Human Geography is analysed, the inland sea is territorially characterized, and a landscape definition based on notions relevant and applicable to the context mentioned above is proposed. Results show a definition capable of reconstructing the spatial history of the small-scale fishing system in the inland sea, which would support a base of interpretative analysis to various issues linked to artisanal fishing and the appropriation, use, and management of fishing-artisanal resources.
