HOW CAN YOUR MAJOR MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE

 

                How can your mayor make the

                        world a better place


The truth is that initially i did not see the architecture like a way to change the world, but over time my perception has changed thanks to the fundamentals of architecture classes where they teach architecture from a social and philosophical point of view.

I believe that my career can help the poorest people and in general all people if Henry Lefebvre's so-called "right to the city" is taken into account, this book exposes the problems of the modern city as a product of the capitalist and industrial city and how people lost public space to privilege private space, he also seeks a solution to this problem through architecture, on the other hand i have also been very interested in the work of Alejandro Aravena, a prominent Chilean architect who won the 2016 Pritzker Prize , his social work focuses on participatory designs, where people can choose what they need and can have a decent house.

I still don't see myself in this process because i'm just getting into the world of architecture, but i think i'm already finding my way.

The last plebiscite

  In Chile in 2019 there was a social explosion with which the beginning of a constitutional proposal was achieved.  My political vision has always been on the left. The elections to approve or reject the new proposal was last Sunday, its results gave the winner to the reject option According to studies that are being carried out, they say that the plebiscite was lost due to misinformation that was dedicated to disseminating a certain political sector, which everyone knows what it is, through all kinds of media, the other day I heard an interview with an older lady in which they asked her why I voted for rejection and she said "vote rejection so that there is a change", now how could that old lady think that rejecting was changing? if literally the reject option meant that everything stays as it is. In chile the public education is bad, this factor added to the massive misinformation influenced the results from the triumph of rejection. Can democracy exist if the media have a...
