The publishers apologise that the images for figure 7 and 8 were mistakenly merged together into one figure and published as figure 7 as shown below.

The correct images should have been individually presented with their own captions as below:

Figure 7. Presidential approval dynamics in contemporary Chile.

Figure 8. Sample WhatsApp messages sent to “my representative” in the Convention.

Presented correctly the reference third paragraph on page 87 should be for Figure 8.

In this sense, for example, the election of a Mapuche woman as president of the constituent body was seen as a positive sign as it distinguished the Convention from traditional politics. One participant in these focus groups stated, for example: “If they elected a Mapuche woman as president, it gives me hope that it will be something different from the usual politicians.” Accordingly, when participants were asked in the same study to send a message to “their” representative, the messages collected underscored the need for differentiation from traditional politics. Figure 8 lists a series of such messages, dominated by the expression “No:::”, which directly states the demand for a different relationship than the one assigned to the traditional political system. Other responses convey a similar sentiment with different phrasing.
