总结:An understanding of how and why residents make changes or transformations to social housing projects not only gives us insights into the relationship between and their dwellings and the potential for residents to contribute actively in the housing process, but the effects of these activities have many potential benefits for the quality and size of the housing stock. This paper explores these issues in Chile, which, because of its long and varied history of state intervention in social housing, provides an ideal laboratory for study. After describing the housing context and types of changes taking place in Chile, an attempt is made to clarify the theoretical aspects of residential change. The motivations or possible explanations for changes are then examined and the key influencing factors identified. The paper ends with a discussion of the implications of user - initiated residential transformation and relates these to the recent policy initiatives of the democratic government.
