MARDONES, Rodolfo E.  and  ULLOA, Jorge. Subjective construction of the territory: Experiences of dwell the province of Bio Bio, Chile. Estud. psicol. (Natal) [online]. 2017, vol.22, n.4, pp. 422-431. ISSN 1413-294X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.22491/1678-4669.20170043.

The objective of this article was "to understand the subjective construction of the territory of inhabitants of the city, the countryside and the indigenous territory of the province of Bio Bio, Chile". In particular, the story of the participants about the construction of the territory is characterized and compared. It is investigated from a qualitative perspective, making a data collection through the combination of two strategies: the drift and the in-depth interview, which were analyzed through thematic analysis of content. The results are presented according to the theoretical themes studied in each territory. It is concluded that the subjective construction of the territory is marked by the relationship between materiality and symbolism, relationship with others and emotional experience with places.

Keywords : subjective construction; territory; appropriation of space; community relations.
