What Does Gray Look Like On Walls?
Behind Unseen Prat Pier
and Amanda Cerny Paulina Pizarro
"Prat Pier was not bigger? What happened here? Why place such an important tourist and historical Valparaiso is in such poor conditions? Is not it dangerous to be so? Who is responsible for that has not done anything yet? How much will this affect workers at the site? "It has become common to see so few people in this sector before yesterday was so busy? Are not you supposed to Valparaiso is known for its culture of Buenos Aires and the pier is one of their representatives? Is not part of the Historic Pier Valparaiso? And the City, why not in charge? ...
Every time we walk in Valparaiso is impossible not to get to Muelle Prat, in one way or another we always end up happening here, and if not, we cry all the way back. The boats are simply "boat" is a synonym of Valparaiso, call us to see and enjoy what we deliver. The pier and everything around you is part of the Jewel of the Pacific, a place that conveys the history, customs and above all welcome to feel part of the Buenos Aires culture, even for a moment. In this ethnography intend to approach this place so to know from the inside, feel the point of view of those who do story and share his world participant.
History
El Muelle Prat was founded in the eighteenth century as a 
arrival
people and cargo from large ships to shore. Named after the commander of the corvette Esmeralda, Don Arturo Prat Chacón, it was to this place where his remains arrived during the Pacific War. A few meters from the Plaza Sotomayor, where they were buried the remains of our heroes, will find this beautiful place that has become a historical icon, cultural, heritage and tourism in Valparaiso. Over time it has earned a place in the hearts of the locals, to be as representative of what is his hometown, as well as being a meeting place for Chileans and foreigners. Given the degree of importance it represents to the city port, in 2003, when Valparaiso received the title of World Heritage City, it is enclosed within the old quarter of the Jewel of the Pacific, becoming not only important for Chile but also for the world.
In the spring, in the heart of it, is a magnet that grabs all the attention: the tourist boats, which offer a glimpse of the rainbow of colors from the sea. The origin of these vessels is almost as old as the origin of the pier, and that initially served as a means of transportation that connected the ship to port. However, today its main task is to give the chance to take a look at Valparaiso peculiar way. Initially 
arrival people and cargo from large ships to shore. Named after the commander of the corvette Esmeralda, Don Arturo Prat Chacón, it was to this place where his remains arrived during the Pacific War.

spring property belonged to the Chilean government, however, the January 31, 1998 passed into the hands of the Chilean consortium, Germany, Port of Valparaiso, who takes over the place until today.
is where the problems begin ...
Imam
The "magnet" that calls for the spring visit is organized to provide good care and keep living. This organization is based on the existence of two agencies: Boat Owners Association of Muelle Prat and National Inter-Union Workers Prat Pier for boats. The latter nation in 1984 as a mediator and advocate of workers in boats to the owners thereof, by way of solving existing conflicts. However, later they were faced with a larger problem. When EPV became property of the pier, workers in this, particularly those in the boats, were attacked constantly, and holding a key point in the strategy to increase the profits of the port. Although there are two organizations that represent the boaters, both working together against a larger enemy. Earthquake
For boaters, the harbor is more than a source of work is place, your home, so started a battle against the EPV, in favor of remaining in that sector, Defence and sense of belonging identity feelings toward it.
Faced with reprisals by the company to drive the boatmen of the place is that the boaters were involved in a string of conflicts. On the one hand, seeks to increase profits EPV directory on the other boaters want to keep their place in the spring and thereby keep alive one of the greatest traditions in Buenos Aires. In the interest of defense, the union and the association have searched multiple outputs enabling them to occupy their rightful place in the spring until today.
Intangible Heritage of Humanity
On July 2, one of the 
come out as more important to have followed the boatmen came to life: the appointment of the boats and Intangible Heritage of Humanity , by adding them to the project "Old Port" which seeks to preserve in good condition those tangible or intangible property that provide the basis to Valparaiso still considered a World Heritage City. This appointment was a major step in the struggle of boaters to the EPV, as this ensures a place in the Prat Pier can not be revoked by the authority of the port, as an entity now than it protects.

This appointment was a major step in the struggle of boaters to the EPV, as this ensures a place in the Prat Pier can not be revoked by the authority of the port, as an entity now than it protects. Having been involved in this achievement and have seen fighting during research time make it have a special meaning that may have to be simple external controls, for we own the fight to have been in constant contact Don Carlos Lemus, president of the union of boaters, and the atmosphere surrounding the pier. During these three months we witnessed the change in the prevailing feelings since we got the place until we saw how to achieve a goal. It has been gratifying to feel that "hicismos history " When we ride by boat and sign the registration book, to which all present (including the authorities) had access, so as to leave an imprint on the history of the Prat Pier.
Monument
The next ambition is to reach boaters plan to get the title of a historic monument, because once the EPV accomplished this goal can not dock them aside, and would gain weight with the authorities in general, a weight that transcends economic power of the enterprise: a historical and cultural weight that is gained through years of experiences and contributions to the traditions of a culture. Moreover, if this can be achieved, the authorities responsible for the amnteción and persistence over time of these.
With this the boats will gain greater importance and would be seen as "walking history" : Looking to the past while in the present ...
Red Curly Hair Actresses
modernization Is justification for the loss of traditions in Buenos Aires, who fall victim to capitalism in the hands of big business?
In today's society all around us is constantly changing: the cell phone today is the latest generation in less than a month will be obsolete, the latest model computer will soon scrap today it is possible to create stem cells artificially ... Y so, the case with most things. Our world runs at high speed towards achieving significant progress in improving the quality of life and welfare of the people, but if we let this process invades all areas of our reality we may lose our identity. Preserving tradition has become more difficult than the day before yesterday, as the inexhaustible desire to destroy everything that progress does not cooperate with their interests. Three decades ago it was normal to celebrate Christmas with the family celebrating the birth of Jesus and family togetherness, forgetting somewhat from the gifts and emphasizing the feeling of love that is generated. Today, consumerism and Christmas is equivalent to most children do not associate this date with unity and love, but with gifts. Here we show that the fast pace of modern life leaves little room to keep to tradition: the wasting away of a bit and replaced by technology and money.

Here we show that the fast pace of modern life leaves little room to keep to tradition: the wasting away of a bit and replaced by technology and money. accompanied modernization of capitalism, as it gains power as the modernization is gaining ground: a specialized industry, working in different areas to increase productivity, to do this also increase the profits and the owner can get rich, born in the latter "a love of money" that will support the modernization pro-feed their selfish feeling. The lust to have more the other brand even further the gap between social classes: some are enriched at the expense of the impoverishment of others. For this to make money, big companies ignore the traditions and customs of the place which is located in your area of \u200b\u200bexpertise, not caring to bypass as long as they achieve their purpose. In this framework gives the struggle of the inhabitants of the Muelle Prat, who want to preserve their traditions and identity, dealing with capitalism and modernization, which are materialized by the Port of Valparaiso. The EPV rid of them in order to unify their domains in the port of Valparaiso and increase their profits, however, if they do this would destroy part History of Chile and part of Buenos Aires culture, so the unions that make up the spring are at war against the oppression. To demonstrate this struggle, we have focused our sights on the speedboat, which have a more difficult and direct confrontation to the EPV, compared with the other participants of the problem, that they are the only ones who do not have insurance and a permanent physical rather than the sea. It is worth mentioning that while boaters are divided into two groups: the National Inter-Union Workers Prat Pier Boats and Boat Owners Association of Muelle Prat, both work for the same reason, however, our informant key belongs to the first.
Prat Pier is a tourist spot and one of the World Heritage Site, so its importance is not less, since they contribute to the Jewel of the Pacific a historical and cultural legacy that support this status. However, only the land area of \u200b\u200bthe pier falls into this category, leaving disadvantaged and drift boaters, those having no support of this style are constantly attacked by the EPV, as these do not generate "profits "to have them at the dock. Year after year, various "inconveniences" in the speedboat courtesy of the company, which strives to get them out of place. These "head pain" have been that the union be revived after almost ten years of inactivity to fight injustices, protecting the rights of its members and taking the fight to retain their achieve home and source of work. Although the problems faced are varied over time, the background is always the same. This year came a new problem: after the earthquake in February, the pier was badly damaged, what infrastructure will not only affected but also to workers in the spring. Only in the case of the boaters, boat trips decreased drastically, which was caused by a decline in visitors to the area, this because about 65% building was damaged, reducing the physical size of the place and thus safety. The EPV and the Government are the ones to ensure the maintenance of the place, however, with the change of command decision deferred until six months, of which so far have trasncurrido about three. The port in no hurry to change the situation, because they are not affected, but the boaters and local people themselves. Have demanded a quick solution, but not listen to them and tempt them to abandon it is better to stay, but boaters are not asking for money or anything that they do not appropriate, only asking for decent conditions for work so we can take the bread every day home.
Something that stands out among all, hope, tenacity and perseverance of the boatmen
no limits: God never closes a door without opening a window , so searched and searched the "window "and gave a great solution. Thanks to the advice of Mr. Milos Miskovik, director of the Department of Tourist Development and the support of the Municipality of Valparaiso, have been able to Project "Vieux Port" , with which he recognized as Intangible Heritage 
of humanity to the boats, the EPV can not move them from their current location. This has been a big step for boaters, which shows that the one who perseveres reaches. By the time the boaters have won a battle for the Buenos Aires culture, proving that modernization and the thirst for money is not too strong justification to overturn a tradition.

What Does Skin Mottling Look Like
Paseo Muelle Prat
- "the boat is going!" - Was one of the first words we heard upon arrival at Muelle Prat. Many people in charge of boats were preparing to draw public attention to the little fearful, while interesting, came to the industry, invited to observe the tradition that has remained in place for several generations. The great family that make people who work here are struggling every day to get economic support to their homes. Each member enjoys the fun atmosphere that reigns there, or rather reigned .. . On this occasion, we just noticed the site certain air desolation: the earthquake of February 27 had left its mark not only the spring but also in the heart of Buenos Aires. This also became one of the reasons that motivated us to choose it as a point of investigation, and we wanted to know why this is, get to the bottom of the situation and bring to light what is hidden to our eyes, in addition to learn more about the hidden history of one of the economic sectors, culturales y turístico más importante de Valparaíso.
Para adentrarnos en el asunto, comenzamos a observar el lugar para entender cómo afectaba el aire de desolación al público en general: en los turistas extranjeros se notaba sorpresa por los daños estructurales, sin embargo, esto nos los reprimió, paseando por el sector de lo más normal (aunque la cantidad de turistas extranjeros era mínima); en el caso de los turistas nacionales, se veía en sus rostros reflejada la preocupación ante lo acontecido, sumándose a esto un recelo hacia el mar, evidenciado principalmente en los adultos " no quiero pasear en lancha porque si hay otro maremoto... " (visitante sector) and the local people, boaters, artisans and other workers were in itself a depressing atmosphere, it was noticed on the view that her life had changed.
To enter into the subject from the viewpoint of the protagonists, we went to talk to Don Carlos Lemus, president of the National Inter-Union Workers Boats Prat Pier, which was kindly providing the necessary information to become aware of what really happened. One of the issues that most intrigued us was why Prat Pier was in such bad shape two months of the earthquake, to which he replied that it was void because the act part of the company behind the dock, Valparaíso Port Company. Then we learned that the sector is owned by the company and the Boat Owners Association "leased the pier for docking sector and to make the trip across the bay" (Nelson Garrido, member of the union of boaters), so EPV that would be required to take over the maintenance of the site. However, the EPV and boaters (we focus on the latter as representatives of the struggle) are rivals looking to make the property or keep it, respectively. On the one hand, the company wants them out of place, since they occupy a strategic sector for the port. By contrast, the boaters do not want to move there, because the spring has been with them for generations, naciéndoles a sense of belonging and identity with it.
order to organize and to champion their rights in a united way, created in 1984, the National Inter-Union Workers Prat Pier boats, initially to solve the problems between workers and owners, however, this he joined the fight against the EPV, which took full ownership of the port of Valparaiso in 1998, after the enactment of the Port Modernization 19,542. Now not only defending the rights of workers but also their jobs. Note that if the EPV got to separate it would be a blow not only for boaters, it would be a blow to the history of the port.
The trouble with all this fighting is that they are boaters and people living there who suffer the consequences directly, since the company has the backing of the law. That is why boaters are organized to fight for their rights and keep what theirs is.
At present, the most important problem affecting the spring, and thus who are in it, is the destruction that generated the last earthquake. Achieve a quick solution is to give the current battle occurred in place, which involves all workers. So far the EPV has given only "aspirin" to the problems they have and have been told they must wait until they make the change directory command port (the conclusion of the alliance), and after six months begin studies of the place, in other words, are preventing the delivery of a prompt resolution.
As we had Don Nelson Garrido, the problematic relationship is between the boaters and the board of the EPV, as the latter are those who do not accept and seek to eradicate the place, so boaters should be alert to the plays that they made. This is what triggered a series of measures taken by the boatmen (union and association) and has had several consequences. To begin, through the advice of Mr. Milos Miskovik, director of the Tourism Development Department of the Municipality of Valparaíso and thanks to the latter, achieved the distinction of Intangible Heritage of Humanity to the boats, was obtained with this protection and State support and UNESCO , ensuring their stay at the dock, as well as to keep their jobs. In addition to this you are looking for ways to pursue legal actions to improve the situation of the spring, through a complaint to the EPV for it accountable for the infrastructure problems of the sector. Although still in the planning stage and is not sure if that would prove to promising implications for improving post-earthquake conditions being experienced in the Prat Pier.
We conclude that the fight that occurs in the spring is far from over and that while boaters are handicapped by the EPV, they will not give up so easily, they seek all means to keep the Muelle Prat as their place of belonging and home for much longer, thus conserving part of the tradition and culture of Buenos Aires most striking of the Jewel of the Pacific.

This also became one of the reasons that motivated us to choose it as a point of investigation, and we wanted to know why this is, get to the bottom of the situation and bring to light what is hidden to our eyes, in addition to learn more about the hidden history of one of the economic sectors, culturales y turístico más importante de Valparaíso. Para adentrarnos en el asunto, comenzamos a observar el lugar para entender cómo afectaba el aire de desolación al público en general: en los turistas extranjeros se notaba sorpresa por los daños estructurales, sin embargo, esto nos los reprimió, paseando por el sector de lo más normal (aunque la cantidad de turistas extranjeros era mínima); en el caso de los turistas nacionales, se veía en sus rostros reflejada la preocupación ante lo acontecido, sumándose a esto un recelo hacia el mar, evidenciado principalmente en los adultos " no quiero pasear en lancha porque si hay otro maremoto... " (visitante sector) and the local people, boaters, artisans and other workers were in itself a depressing atmosphere, it was noticed on the view that her life had changed.
To enter into the subject from the viewpoint of the protagonists, we went to talk to Don Carlos Lemus, president of the National Inter-Union Workers Boats Prat Pier, which was kindly providing the necessary information to become aware of what really happened. One of the issues that most intrigued us was why Prat Pier was in such bad shape two months of the earthquake, to which he replied that it was void because the act part of the company behind the dock, Valparaíso Port Company. Then we learned that the sector is owned by the company and the Boat Owners Association "leased the pier for docking sector and to make the trip across the bay" (Nelson Garrido, member of the union of boaters), so EPV that would be required to take over the maintenance of the site. However, the EPV and boaters (we focus on the latter as representatives of the struggle) are rivals looking to make the property or keep it, respectively. On the one hand, the company wants them out of place, since they occupy a strategic sector for the port. By contrast, the boaters do not want to move there, because the spring has been with them for generations, naciéndoles a sense of belonging and identity with it.
order to organize and to champion their rights in a united way, created in 1984, the National Inter-Union Workers Prat Pier boats, initially to solve the problems between workers and owners, however, this he joined the fight against the EPV, which took full ownership of the port of Valparaiso in 1998, after the enactment of the Port Modernization 19,542. Now not only defending the rights of workers but also their jobs. Note that if the EPV got to separate it would be a blow not only for boaters, it would be a blow to the history of the port.
The trouble with all this fighting is that they are boaters and people living there who suffer the consequences directly, since the company has the backing of the law. That is why boaters are organized to fight for their rights and keep what theirs is.
At present, the most important problem affecting the spring, and thus who are in it, is the destruction that generated the last earthquake. Achieve a quick solution is to give the current battle occurred in place, which involves all workers. So far the EPV has given only "aspirin" to the problems they have and have been told they must wait until they make the change directory command port (the conclusion of the alliance), and after six months begin studies of the place, in other words, are preventing the delivery of a prompt resolution.
As we had Don Nelson Garrido, the problematic relationship is between the boaters and the board of the EPV, as the latter are those who do not accept and seek to eradicate the place, so boaters should be alert to the plays that they made. This is what triggered a series of measures taken by the boatmen (union and association) and has had several consequences. To begin, through the advice of Mr. Milos Miskovik, director of the Tourism Development Department of the Municipality of Valparaíso and thanks to the latter, achieved the distinction of Intangible Heritage of Humanity to the boats, was obtained with this protection and State support and UNESCO , ensuring their stay at the dock, as well as to keep their jobs. In addition to this you are looking for ways to pursue legal actions to improve the situation of the spring, through a complaint to the EPV for it accountable for the infrastructure problems of the sector. Although still in the planning stage and is not sure if that would prove to promising implications for improving post-earthquake conditions being experienced in the Prat Pier.
We conclude that the fight that occurs in the spring is far from over and that while boaters are handicapped by the EPV, they will not give up so easily, they seek all means to keep the Muelle Prat as their place of belonging and home for much longer, thus conserving part of the tradition and culture of Buenos Aires most striking of the Jewel of the Pacific.

Prat Pier was one of many that was damaged in Valparaiso. This infrastructure was strong sequels that not only damaged the facade but also affect the activities of the workers on site. The pier is one of the areas declared a World Heritage Site, so that both the State and the Port of Valparaiso should take care to change the current situation. However, bad luck for workers, with the change of command of the nation is not possible to give a quick solution the case, not until the change was communicated to the board that governs the company. In the words of the president of the National Inter-Union Workers Prat Pier boats, Don Carlos Lemus, the company would turn the sector around the month of September to discuss stage and, after that, making a decision. Until then the appearance of the spring will not change.
As can be seen, the conditions under which lies the spring does not cause any inconvenience to the company, but for the workers, who see themselves as going to lead a more powerful entity, and neither the state does something. At this time the spring continues in appalling conditions, the earthquake reduced footprint and increased the insecurity of those who work there and all those who visited the area, lessening the sightseeing and thus, the income of people who earn their living in that place.

What Does One Kg Of Fat Look Like?
: "A Place Anthropological" Muelle Prat
"These places have at least three common features. Are considered (or consider) identificatory, relational and historical. (...) In one place can exist distinct elements and unique, certainly, but of which there is no reason to think or relationships or shared identity to them by the occupation of the commonplace. "
Marc Augé (1992). "The Non-Places, Spaces of Anonymity" (pp. 58-60).
Then Prat Pier meets caracteríticas described by Marc Augé, pudiéndosele seen as an anthropological :
- To begin with, has identity that sets it apart from the rest. People who have an experience and make common struggle that unites and leads one to look north, all members share a single identity. Although the Prat Wharf is comprised of various unions, these are all axes of the same unit which represents a large family. By focusing on the boaters we focus on one of the members of this history, which stars in a leading role in the fight to be one of the unions with more and more vulnerable members of the axes, and directly and continuously receiving the repressions of the Port of Valparaiso.
- Secondly, it is relational . As previously mentioned, the Prat Wharf consists of a number of unions which are in constant interaction with not only themselves but also with other sectors, unions and organizations. For example, the Independent Workers Union of Fishermen's Wharf Sudamericana conducts its activities in the continuous inlet to the dock and have interaction with boaters in various activities, as the celebration of St. Peter and St. Paul is also the organization in charge of the Ex-Prison, who have contact with through the Inter-Union President National Boat Dock Workers Prat, Carlos Lemus, the it is also an active member of that community.
- Finally, history has . El Muelle Prat was founded in the eighteenth century as a point of arrival of people and cargo from large ships to shore. Initially its purpose was not tourism, in the last century or so, has taken a course that is bounded in this area. It is noteworthy that, like many sectors of Valparaiso the spring has been named a World Heritage Site , since it has a history full of traditions behind it and extending to several decades. The spring has gone through many experiences throughout his life, earning a place in the history of Puerto Principal.
All members of the family which is the Muelle Prat h 
accentuated that this is an anthropological site, as it is created when there is awareness that children (Augé, 1992), ie when the sharing of experiences, a common history and constant interaction comes a sense of belonging and the need for permanence is now home and not just a better place.

How Many Minutes A Day To We Gain From
When we walk along the beautiful Pacific Joya is impossible to not visit certain sites as key points of our tour route: Victoria Square, Paseo Atkinson, The Lift Range, and as no mention at Muelle Prat.
Facing the Plaza Sotomayor, the Muelle Prat is one of the main resorts of Valparaiso as well known for its craft fair, the restaurant Lifeboat striking and beautiful tourist boats that allow us to have an overview of the City from the sea.
However, there was always a tourist area. At its inception, the pier was used purposes of carrying personnel and supplies from the large vessels of the Port to the coast. As time has witnessed political changes, earthquake and disaster, among other events that have occurred in the large Valparaiso, but has always remained intact and continued to monitor what is happening around them. However, in the spring, as elsewhere, there hides a reality that escapes the eye of the world and has a lot of history, which has been forged to be what we know today.
porteñas Keeping traditions that today we show in the spring has not been an easy job. Behind this beautiful facade hides an interesting battle to remain loaded with a strong sense of common identity among the many participants in it. The pier would not be what we see today but for the hidden conflicts, as if there were no enemy would not be born a sense of unity that grows here and there would place as itself.
The pillars supporting the pier and give the name " place " Unions are fighting against the repression of the Port of Valparaíso, and these unions are: Lifeboat Restaurant Union, Union Gallery The Volunteer Corps and the National Inter-Union Workers Prat Pier boats. We will focus on the latter, since it is the most vulnerable of all, since the territory of these is the sea.
In this blog we intend to show part of the struggle that is based on the Muelle Prat from the anthropological point of view, for the sake of making a spring ethnographic work, answering the question what is global struggle the Other?
