Resumen
Reconstruction in small and medium-sized Chilean cities that were affected by the earthquake and tsunami on February 27th 2010, calls in to the question the capacity for coordination between public and private agents and the community to face the reconstruction post disaster. It is also relevant to wonder if gentrification is a latent process of the urban and social reconfiguration of Dichato and Constitucion as well as patterns of displacement, establishment and relocation of the affected population. The cases of Constitucion and Dichato help to link the study of gentrification in reconstruction locations beyond the big capitalist cities. Methodologically, data was based on surveys, interviews affected residents, as well as public and private agents. To identify mechanisms of coordination between territorial agents six dimensions were studied: reconstruction of built environment; psychological reconstruction, mechanisms of risk management, economic system, political structure and social capital prior to and after the disaster
