Dentro del mundo académico de los estudios sobre el desarrollo, el concepto de “cambio transformacional” es importantísimo, porque es aquel en el que un grupo de personas se sumerge en su sistema de creencias, valores o principios más profundos para cambiar una realidad o situación de raíz. Chile se encuentra hoy en un proceso de cambio transformacional que no solo es profundo sino que es también contradictorio. El estallido social fue una crisis que nos obligó como sociedad a cuestionarnos de manera profunda el modelo bajo el que hemos vivido los últimos treinta años y que ha desencadenado un malestar profundo en la sociedad chilena. Sin embargo, es al mismo tiempo, un neoliberalismo que se ha impregnado culturalmente en nosotros. Desaprender el sistema socioeconómico hegemónico y crear uno nuevo es, sin duda, verdadero ejercicio de imaginación política. Hoy, ese proceso creativo, se encarna principalmente en la Convención Constitucional y en el ejercicio de su labor: escribir una nueva carta magna para Chile.
Chile is currently undergoing a process of transformational change that is not only profound but also contradictory. The explosion of social unrest was a crisis that forced us as a society to fundamentally question the model under which we have lived for the past thirty years and which has caused widespread discontent in Chilean society. Today, that creative process takes shape primarily in the Constitutional Convention and in the fulfillment of its mandate: writing a new national constitution for Chile.

What we face today is not just a "crisis" in the normal sense of the word - "a time of intense difficulty or danger". We also face a crisis in the sense of the word’s etymological roots in the Greek word krisis. This refers to a turning point in the course of an illness, pointing either to the start of recovery or the imminence of death. Such an understanding of "crisis" implies a relatively brief moment between two possible outcomes, a good one and a bad one. The deep social, economic and political problems of our times, however, are not signs of a passing "moment" or a single issue; they rather signal a multi-faceted crisis, whose components all strengthen and reinforce each other.
