In the paper we establish a relationship between Regional History and School Texts, having the Tarapacá region as a space of analysis. In making this connection, we explore the links between the problems associated with regional historiographic production and school texts on specific topics such as independence. The review is fundamentally documentary in nature, we approach from regional historiography the dynamics of Independence in Tarapacá; and we will try to evidence in some Peruvian school texts published between 2002 and 2018 elements that reveal the role of the regions in the independence process, with particular interest in the presence of Tarapacá in the explanations related to Latin American independence. When exploring the school texts from the perspective of regional history, the references to the local are framed among those that are circumscribed to the current national configurations, therefore, if the course of events is fixed, the current narrative reaches Tacna for the Peruvian extreme south.

The causes of the weak development of Appellations of Origin in Latin America are investigated, a problem that persists today, despite the efforts of public policies. It examines the foundational period of mass culture and the wine market in consumer society in the first third of the 20th century. Specifically, it examines the commercial battle between brands and typical products of origin in the main magazines of the region, such as Caras y Caretas (Buenos Aires) and Zig-Zag (Santiago de Chile). Instead of asserting their identity and cultural landscapes, the DOs limited themselves to imitating the brands' strategy. Moreover, the predominance of Frenchisation trends weakened the interest in typical local products, which accentuated the problem.

The following article presents a reflection on education with and in nature, based on the experience of alternatives schools in Chile and reflecting on three great educators, Gabriela Mistral, Rudolf Steiner and Célestin Freinet. Through semi-structured interviews with founders of five alternatives schools in the north, centre and south of Chile. After having codified and established major categories, we will present three selected categories that are relevant to education with and in nature.  The results show us that the relationship with nature is expressed in declarative terms in their projects, both in the ideology of the schools and in the place that children's emotions occupy in the daily life of the establishments; in the location of the schools in the middle of forests, coastal and rural areas; as well as in the investigative outings in the open air.
