MICHELETTI, Stefano; SARAVIA CORTES, Felipe  e  LETELIER TRONCOSO, Francisco. THE CONTENTS OF THE RURBAN LIVE: PRACTICES, MOBILITY AND IDENTITIES IN THE INTERMEDIATE CITIES OF MAULE, CHILE. Cuad. urbano [online]. 2019, vol.27, n.27, pp.111-134.  Epub 01-Jun-2019. ISSN 1853-3655.  http://dx.doi.org/10.30972/crn.27274121.

In the intermediate-scale cities of the Chilean Maule Region, a number of people identify themselves as “Little bit urban-little bit rural”. We aim to statistically describe and correlate this identity adscription with other key elements that characterise this group of “rurbans”. We use an 737 people sample. Even though “rurbans” share socio-economic and occupational features with those who consider themselves as plain urban people, they differ regarding their rural-linked practices. “Rurbans” are also more connected with smaller urban towns in the Region, and the less of their people were born in largest cities. The evidence is not concluding, however, we consider these findings as relevant for further research, mostly for qualitative research.

Palavras-chave : Rurbanity; territory; identity; daily practices; mobility.
