	Temuco - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Temuco, which in the mapudungun language means "temu water", herbal tree used by Mapuches to cure diseases, is the capital of the IX región de la Araucanía, Chile, and is located 670kms south of Santiago.
		The city is surrounded by an environment typical to southern Chile, consisting mostly of coniferous forests in the midst of a central prairie of moraines and cones next to the pre-Andres mountains.
		Climatologically, this corresponds to Chile's central valley mediterranean region, with a subtropical weather and transition to humid regions.

	Chile: Terror Law Violates Due Process for Mapuche (Human Rights Watch, 27-10-2004)
		The Mapuche are accused of plotting to commit a string of arson attacks on woods, fields, homesteads, and vehicles on land under dispute in the Araucanía region of southern Chile.
		The fertile land of the Bío Bío and the Araucanía regions, ancestral territory of the Mapuche, is now dotted with commercial pine and eucalyptus plantations, which the Mapuche claim harm the ecosystems on which their traditional life depends.
		Chile’s use of terrorism charges for crimes committed in the context of land conflicts, which do not have these characteristics, is inappropriate and reinforces existing prejudices against the Mapuche.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: American Indians
		The tipi (the Sioux name for house) or conical tent-dwelling of the upper lake and plains region was of poles set lightly in the ground, bound together near the top, and covered with bark or mats in the lake country, and with dressed buffalo skins on the plains.
		In the timbered regions of the eastern and southern states and the adjacent portions of Canada, along the Missouri and among the Pueblos, Pima, and other tribes of the south-west, the chief dependence was upon agriculture, the principal crops being corn, beans, and squashes, besides a native tobacco.
		The tribes of the upper lake region made great use of wild rice, while those of the Ohio Valley made sugar from the sap of the maple, and those of the southern states extracted a nourishing oil from the hickory nut.

		In the last thirteen years, Chile has been mentioned as a successful country in leaving behind military authoritarian rule while at the same time exhibiting sound and steady economic growth.
		In the 1990s, while many countries in Latin America struggled to meet economic growth with increasing income distribution demands from the poor, Chile managed to reach a proper balance between economic growth and equity, leaving behind military rule, where social justice and income distribution were subordinate to economic goals.
		Thus, by investigating a region that lags behind in the midst of a country undergoing economic progress, this research is expected to provide explanations to understand free-market policy’s unsolved paradox of prosperity without equality.
