More than three years after Chilean lawmakers took on the task, the country is still working on a new constitution. The initial push ended in failure last September, when voters overwhelmingly rejected a draft that many saw as too radical. While the latest rewrite attempt includes safeguards aimed at avoiding past blunders, it still faces no shortage of challenges.

1. Why is Chile writing a new constitution?

The current one dates to the military dictatorship that ruled from 1973 to 1990. Though it’s been amended several times since Chile returned to democracy, many view the document as illegitimate because of its origins during the reign of General Augusto Pinochet, a violent dictator whose rule featured arbitrary arrests and political executions. Critics have also argued that elements of the constitution have entrenched inequality. When mass street protests began on Oct. 18, 2019, triggered by an increase in Santiago subway fares, demonstrators expanded their grievances to include problems with the pension, health care and education systems. In an effort to diffuse tensions, then-President Sebastian Pinera agreed to hold a 2020 referendum on whether to rewrite Chile’s charter and, if so, how. Almost 80% of voters said yes, and a large majority favored doing so by appointing a Constitutional Convention. 

2. What happened in the first attempt?

Electing members of the Constitutional Convention in May 2021, voters delivered a massive surprise by spurning traditional political parties in favor of left-leaning independents. Rightist members failed even to secure the one-third of seats necessary to block articles. The body rushed to finish the draft after a year of work, writing and then re-writing clauses and going as far as holding weekend and late-night sessions. In doing so, it incorporated proposals that some viewed as radical change, such as the eliminating the senate — the upper house of Chile’s bicameral legislature — and creating a parallel justice system for indigenous communities. On Sept. 4, 2022, voters overwhelmingly rejected that document, 62% to 38%. It was a huge blow to leftist President Gabriel Boric, who had publicly supported the new charter.

3. What’s different this time around?

Lawmakers went back to the drawing board. In December, following weeks of intense negotiations, they announced an agreement on a new process that divides power and responsibilities across different groups. A Commission of Experts elected by Congress has been outlining new articles since March. On Sunday, voters will elect a Constitutional Council, which will have the ability to accept, reject or modify the proposals from the experts. An Admissibility Technical Committee will oversee the work and ensure that articles do not violate a set of constitutional pillars on Chile’s territorial integrity, the right to property, branches of government and autonomous institutions including the central bank, among other entities. The idea of the structure is to ensure that the end product reflects the will of voters and the guidance of distinguished specialists, all while limiting odds of extreme change.

4. What’s been the reaction from voters and investors?

Rising voter apathy after months of political twists and turns poses a challenge to the latest rewrite effort. Only 31% of people are interested in the new campaign, according to a Criteria public opinion survey published in April, down from 60% two years prior. “There’s high risk of disengagement,” said Criteria founder Cristian Valdivieso. In a Pulso Ciudadano poll published April 30, roughly 61% of respondents said they don’t trust the process, up from 55% in January. Public attention has been more attuned to problems such as crime and inflation, with relatively little buzz on the new constitution on social networks and in the streets. Most investors are brushing off those woes, as they now see the threat of radical changes to the nation’s pro-business rules as next to nil. Since the September referendum, the peso has gained roughly 10% as uncertainty has cleared. The design of the latest charter rewrite prevents unorthodox and radical initiatives from going through, analysts at JPMorgan wrote in a May 1 research note, adding that they are overweight on local stocks. In a Bloomberg survey published on May 2, only 14% of investors cited the constitutional process as a top local political concern, versus 64% who cited debate over pension fund withdrawals.

5. Where do things stand now?

In Sunday’s election, Chileans will select the 50 members of the Constitutional Council. The election is obligatory, meaning that all registered voters will have to submit ballots or else risk paying a fine. They will choose contenders from a total of five different lists — one from the left, one from the center-left, one from the center-right, one from the right and one featuring candidates from a populist party. All eyes will be on whether any political block gets close to 30 of the 50 seats. “The elections will likely result in a fragmented body that tilts right but in which none of the competing lists has the three-fifths majority needed to pass norms on their own,” Eurasia Group analysts including Maria Luisa Puig wrote in a May 1 note. The vote will be held at a time when Boric’s approval ratings are low, likely undermining the performance of his leftist coalition, according to the note.

6. What happens after Sunday’s vote?

The Constitutional Council will start work in June and will have four months to complete its tasks. After the council produces a text, the Commission of Experts will write a report that may include observations aimed at improving the document. Those recommendations will consequently be put to votes in the Constitutional Council; if there’s disagreement, they could be put to a committee consisting of representatives of commission and the council. Ultimately, Chile will hold a referendum on the final draft on Dec. 17. If approved by a simple majority, the new charter would become law, coming into effect upon publication in the Official Gazette.

Frontis ciego, Primavera del dialogo, Chile.

Blanco indirecto de las protestas, Monseñor Crescente Errázuriz Valdivieso, hermano del presidente Francisco Errázuriz fue opositor a sus políticas y la de los intelectuales liberales de la generación del 42. Como arzobispo de Santiago le tocó asumir durante el estallido social de comienzos del siglo XIX bajo las directrices sociales de la encíclica Rerum Novarum que criticaba el rol de la elite por no haber otorgado mas educación y justicia como gesto de beneficiencia. El tiempo parece atraparlo sentado en medio de las protestas actuales.

En 2012 fue inaugurada la primera etapa del Cementerio Santísima Trinidad de Recoleta, obra del arquitecto #TeodoroFernandez, Premio Nacional de Arquitectura, autor del Parque Bicentenario de Vitacura y la remodelación de la Quinta Normal.  Ubicado a un costado del actual Cementerio Católico, en Arzobispo Valdivieso 555, constará de siete etapas en un plazo de 20 años. Uno de sus mayores atractivos arquitectónicos será un gran jardín central compuesto por 4.700 especies, como magnolias, enredaderas, ginkgos biloba y robles americanos. Se trata del primer cementerio construido en altura desde el siglo XX en Latinoamérica. El lugar está inspirado en la Ciudad Utópica de San Agustín y el cementerio de Westwood de Los Angeles. Será una gran ciudadela organizada a partir de patios unidos mediante calles porticadas en torno a un parque central. Tendrá un nivel superior concebido como un sistema de plazas abiertas al paisaje del valle de Santiago. El recinto será una edificación adicional al tradicional Cementerio Católico, construido en 1878 por el arquitecto francés Paul Lathoud e inspirado en el cementerio Staglieno de Génova. A largo plazo, servirá de “sustituto” al añoso camposanto.
