La presente investigación está abocada, principalmente, al estudio de los procesos de erradicación de los Campamentos Mineros en Chile, asentamientos que a principios de siglo constituyeron el reflejo de la Revolución Industrial, hoy sometidos a transformaciones y en vías de desaparecer como asentamiento urbano y humano, producto de los traslados a otras ciudades de la región, afectando urbanísticamente a diferentes comunas de nuestro país. Desde un punto de vista de la planificación y el diseño urbano, se pretende mejorar el desarrollo que han tenido estos programas de inserción en las ciudades receptoras, puesto que dicho problema posee una doble dimensión: por un lado el problema del asentamiento y grupo humano que desaparece, y por otro lado la intervención e inserción en la ciudad receptora. La forma de inserción del Campamento Minero hacia otras localidades urbanas, ha demostrado los graves y complejos procesos de erradicación que esta presenta, hechos que no han logrado ser considerados adecuadamente en la gestión y desarrollo de los planes integrales que vinculen a las comunidades, sus valores y la identidad que lo caracterizan dentro de un territorio al que pertenecen.

(Caupolicán, cacique mapuche, fue personaje de ficción en ...)
Caupolicán, cacique mapuche, fue personaje de ficción en obras de autores del Siglo de Oro español como Alonso de Ercilla, Pedro de Oña, Lope de Vega, García Hurtado de Mendoza, Gaspar de Ávila, etc. También en Los españoles en Chile. La importancia dada a este personaje en la literatura española procede seguramente del hecho de que la Corona de Castilla no pudo conquistar Chile hasta que envió un ejército profesional. A este motivo histórico se añadió otro político y poético: la omisión de un protagonista hispano y su sustitución por un sujeto colectivo de la guerra que realza la dignidad del jefe amerindio. Sea ejemplo de ello la nota sobre la muerte de Caupolicán en la presente obra: Señor, los bárbaros todos a tu yugo se avasallan entregándote las fuerzas de todas estas comarcas. Ya en Caupolicán se hizo la justicia que tú mandas; puesto en un palo murió, y con la mayor constancia que humanos ojos han visto.

He was born circa 1475.
Diego de Almagro was born and raised in Almagro, Ciudad Real, Spain with parents Juan de Montenegro and Elvira Gutiérrez.
He went to Panama in 1514, became a close friend of the conquistador Francisco Pizarro, and joined him in his unsuccessful expedition to Peru in 1524.
Pedrarias was uninterested in the enterprise and made no objection, and Pizarro sailed late in 1524.
Almagro was delayed several months but then followed the present Colombian coast to a point near modern Buenaventura.
Unable to locate Pizarro, he returned to the Isthmus to find him already there. Gaspar de Espinosa then advanced 20, 000 pesos de oro, which enabled the partners to sail again, each in his own ship.
Pizarro then went to Spain to secure a royal commission for the Peruvian conquest.
Almagro helped preside over the tribunal that condemned Atahualpa to death. The four Pizarro brothers now had a firm grip on Peru, so Almagro for a time accepted Francisco's orders.
He occupied Riobamba in present-day Ecuador and then met Pedro de Alvarado, who had come from Guatemala to share the Peruvian wealth.
Almagro prepared the way for a bargain whereby Pizarro paid Alvarado 100, 000 pesos de oro to leave Peru. Almagro next went to Tchili (Chile), where he hoped to win a rich realm for himself.
Almagro turned back to Peru, where the Pizarros meanwhile had nearly crushed the rebellion of Inca Manco.
Almagro scattered the remnants of Manco's army and then seized Cuzco, inviting war with the Pizarros.
He defeated one Pizarrist army at the Abancay River but was then defeated and captured by Hernando Pizarro at the battle of Las Salinas near Cuzco.
Had Francisco Pizarro been present, he might have spared his old partner's life.
In 1534 he loyally blocked an attempt by Pedro de Alvarado to seize northern Peru.
He obtained in 1535 a royal grant of land south of Pizarro's holdings.
Failure to find fortune there prompted Almagro to claim Cuzco (Cusco) as his own.
Hernando, however, had always hated Almagro and had him beheaded in July 1538 after a mock trial in which the major charge was rebellion against the Crown.
Almagro sired a mestizo son in Panama, known to the Spaniards as Almagro the Lad.
The Lad headed the conspirators who murdered Francisco Pizarro in Lima on June 26, 1541.
Young Almagro was executed by the Pizarrists the following year.

De Almagro took part in the various expeditions that took place in the Gulf of Panama, taking part again in Espinosa's parties. Espinosa was supported by using Balboa's ships. De Almagro was recorded as a witness on the lists of natives whom Espinosa ordered to be carried. De Almagro remained as an early settler in the newly founded city of Panama. For four years he stayed there, working at the management of his properties and those of Pizarro. He took Ana Martínez, an indigenous woman, as a common-law wife. In this period, his first son, el "Mozo", was born to them.
Diego de Almagro II (1520–1542), known as El Mozo (The Lad), son of Diego de Almagro I, whose mother was an Indian girl of Panama, became the foil of the conspirators who had put Pizarro to the sword. Pizarro was murdered on June 26, 1541; the conspirators promptly proclaimed the lad De Almagro Governor of Peru. From various causes, all of the conspirators either died or were killed except for one, who was executed after the lad Almagro gave an order. The lad De Almagro fought the desperate battle of Chupas on September 16, 1542, escaped to Cuzco, but was arrested, immediately condemned to death, and executed in the great square of the city.
