Wallmapu is the word in the Mapuche language to say "Universe" [1] or "set of surrounding lands", currently used by some historians to describe the historical territory inhabited by the Mapuche people of southern South America. [2] The term was coined in the early 1990s by Indigenist groups [3] but gained traction in the 2000s as the Mapuche conflict in Araucanía intensified. [4] Some view the Wallmapu as being composed of two main parts Ngulumapu in the west and Puelmapu in the east, with the southern part of Ngulumapu being known as Futahuillimapu. [5]
On May 19, 2022 a conference on the topic "The threat of Wallmapu" ( Spanish: La amenaza de Wallmapu) was held in the city of Neuquén, Argentina. [6]
Fue el inicio de un desarrollo ideológico de un sector del pueblo Mapuche que señaló su anti capitalismo como un eje articulador, y a la resistencia, se simbolizó en la irrupción de la violencia política como instrumento para la reconstrucción de lo que llamaron Wallmapu.
