Beskrivelse
Summary:The paper describes an increasing illegal settlement process carried out by families without houses in Gran Resistencia, Chaco, Argentina. Once the settlement takes place responsibility is laid in the state so as to expropriate the land to benefit the settlers. Reality proves that the state does not carry out this action because it lacks the resources to do so, besides the local housing budgets are not only meagre but some of them have been all together cancelled which leaves families in need unattended. The authors finish the article by proposing some questions about the most critical and urgent situations which are of local interest. Such questions are meant to be publicly discussed by all sectors
