Abstract

Urban camps have been treated extensively as part of persistent anomalies of the post industrial city, and it is appear as negative externalities, charging addressing complex systemic dimensions. The Chilean case is unique because of its large size North-South in the camps have very distinct contextual distinctions in the physical, social, economic and cultural. The latter is stronger in the regions far from metropolitan centers, where local economies and cultural imprints make distinctions in the expression, the magnitude of the problem, its impacts and the relationship between these settlements and the city of spontaneous generation planned from the standard logical tools and formal institutions.
