Abstract

This paper elucidates the representations of Chile in publications of the American Society of Geographers of the United States between 1859 and 1884, considering how these were affected by the War of the Pacific. In this frame the present investigation uses the notion of scientific imperialism to understand to what extent publications and works associated with the sciences reflected the economic and political interests of the USA.
