Abstract
ABSTRACT Although most studies of resource peripheries are macroeconomic in scale, a regional perspective permits a better understanding of the economic implications of commodity dependence. This study of the boom in commodity exports in Chile in the period 2005–15 shows that while a boom may have adverse effects on other activities, it also had positive impacts on the demand for ‘non-tradable’ construction, commerce and hospitality services in urban areas through the investment of economic rents and expansion of the secondary circuit of capital. These impacts differed significantly between booming and non-booming cities, leading to a call for rescaling, spatializing and temporalizing research on resource peripheries.
