| description | A comparative analysis is presented regarding the integration of Disaster Risk Management on land use planning in the communes of San Bernardo and Calera de Tango in Santiago of Chile. This aims to differentiate critical factors between these two locations in relation to their exposure and risk levels. Although these peri-urban municipalities are adjacent to each other and share various similar geographic-physical characteristics, both have developed different urban features in compliance with distinct functionalities within the Metropolitan Region of Chile. Through the analysis of territorial planning instruments and primary data obtained by interviews, the study points out that local managements are limited because they must ‘absorb’ the decisions that are defined from macro territorial levels, which not always correspond to local aspirations and visions. Both communes have had no choice but to accept land use changes that the urban center region has established according to its needs. This has generated a tension between the local and regional development visions, which is manifested in different planning instruments. Ultimately, this scenario creates disadvantages for municipal risk management. |
