VALLEJOS-ROMERO, Arturo; MAYORGA ROJEL, Alberto Javier; GARRIDO, Jaime  and  BOSO, Àlex. Risk narratives guidelines to observe its socio-environmental construction in political institutions. Andamios [online]. 2022, vol.19, n.49, pp.441-462.  Epub June 05, 2023. ISSN 2594-1917.  https://doi.org/10.29092/uacm.v19i49.937.

The article aims to highlight the importance of configuring what Chilean and Latin American institutions build as socio-environmental risks. Through a review of the semantics and narratives of risk, we reveal that the constructs that these institutions formulate through their stories and actions in different contexts play a key role. This role is relevant because the institutions configure an interpretive framework capable of giving meaning, rationality and coherence to their stories to govern and communicate socio-environmental risks. Therefore, this interpretive framework should be in tune with citizenship.

Keywords : Socio-environmental risks; narratives; political institutions; social construction; risk society.
