The two first have an outstanding scale since Venezuela uses these indicators to face the shanty settlements, which are so representatives of the poverty in that nation. Chile used land registry and is indications as a reference to start the CHILE BARRIO (Chile- Neighborhood) program. The Argentina case has a micro urban scale and it is interesting because it uses a qualitative type of methodology. Since shantytowns are so common throughout Latin America, this paper tries to contribute to the discussion of such indicators, especially because they do not include first order variables to efficiently solve the problem.

El artículo presenta resumidamente metodologías y construcciones de indicadores de precariedad utilizados en la última década en tres países latinoamericanos, tales como Venezuela, Chile y Argentina. Los dos primeros, son de una escala notable, por cuanto Venezuela utiliza estos indicadores para enfrentar los sectores de ranchos, tan representativos de la pobreza en esa nación. Chile utilizó un catastro y sus indicadores como referencia para iniciar el actual programa Chile Barrio. El caso Argentino, siendo de escala microurbana, tiene interés en cuanto emplea una metodología más de tipo cualitativa. Dado lo común de los asentamientos precarios en toda Latinoamérica, el artículo pretende aportar a la discusión de esos indicadores y más aún porque en ellos no están incorporadas variables de primer orden para resolver eficazmente el problema. De estos indicadores se derivarán acciones de alto costo para los países, que se espera cooperen a la construcción de cuidados más sustentables. El presente artículo es la primera parte de un trabajo mayor sobre el tema, en el contexto de la Red CYTED XIV.B 'Viviendo y Construyendo', subprograma XIV. HABYTED.
