In a matter of weeks, Chileans will head to the polls to vote on a new constitution. It\u2019s a once-in-a-generation decision which could see its current, decades-old version – first imposed by the right-wing dictatorship of army general Augusto Pinochet – overhauled. If approved by the public, it will be in part thanks to Dr Luis Eslava<\/a>, Reader in International Law.<\/p>\n The work of Dr Luis Eslava, and his Ruptures21 New Constitutional Futures project<\/a>, is at the centre of a new documentary released on KMTV<\/a>: \u2018Chile: Constructing a Constitution\u2019:<\/p>\n The documentary introduces some of the key architects in the constitutional process and details what these changes could mean for the country and the wider region. It sees Dr Eslava travel to Chile\u2019s capital Santiago to see how his project is striking up conversations about the country\u2019s future and, in doing so, overcoming political, social and economic divides.<\/p>\n
