Desde la segregación a la exclusión residencial ¿Dónde están los nuevos hogares pobres (2000- 2017) de la ciudad de Santiago, Chile? Rasse Figueroa, Alejandra Robles, Maria Sarella Sabatini Downey, Francisco Cáceres Quiero, Gonzalo Trebilcock, Maria Paz The subsidized social housing policy, widely applied during the 1990s in Santiago de Chile, formed a highly segregated popular periphery. Since 2000, the application of this instrument has decreased, which is interpreted as a movement of expulsion from social housing to the peri-urban area of the city. In this framework, this work analyzes the location of social housing built between 2000 and 2017 in the Metropolitan Region of Santiago, to identify patterns of expulsion, displacement, and / or segregation of the beneficiaries of this policy. Through a mixed strategy that combined analysis of secondary information, photointerpretation of satellite images, and interviews with the director of municipal works of peri-urban distrits, we conclude that: 1) there is no evidence of a process of massive displacement of households in social housing towards the peri-urban of the city after the 1990s, and 2) the production of social housing, both in the city of Santiago and in its peri-urban, is lower than the new housing requirements, increasing the housing deficit. It is concluded that the current scenario is one of exclusion of the new poor households from the Santiago housing market, rather than of displacement or increase in residential segregation. La política de vivienda social subsidiada, de masiva aplicación durante los años noventa en Santiago de Chile, conformó una periferia popular altamente segregada. Desde el año 2000, la aplicación de este instrumento decrece, lo que se interpreta como un movimiento de expulsión de la vivienda social hacia el área periurbana de la ciudad. En este marco, este trabajo analiza la localización de las viviendas sociales construidas entre los años 2000 y 2017 en la Región Metropolitana de Santiago, para identificar patrones de expulsión, desplazamiento y/o segregación de los beneficiarios de esta política. A través de una estrategia mixta que combinó análisis de información secundaria, fotointerpretación de imágenes satelitales y entrevistas a los directores de obras de comunas periurbanas, concluimos que: 1) no existe evidencia de un proceso de desplazamiento masivo de hogares en vivienda social hacia el periurbano de la ciudad con posterioridad a la década de los noventa, y 2) la producción de vivienda social, tanto en la ciudad de Santiago como en su periurbano, es inferior a los nuevos requerimientos de vivienda, incrementando el déficit habitacional. Se concluye que el actual escenario es de exclusión de los nuevos hogares pobres del mercado de vivienda de Santiago, más que de desplazamiento o aumento de la segregación residencial.
