Although in Chile urban informality is less frequent than in other countries of the region, the recent growth of informal settlements bestows greater relevance to the problem. This article studies the effects on social integration and exclusion of policies aimed at informal settlements in Chile, specifically through the execution of the Programa de Campamentos or ‘informal settlements’ program’ between 2011 and 2018. Analysis considers quantitative data from Informal Settlements’ Surveys, and the study of four cases in different regions in the country focusing on strategies aimed at informal settlement closure strategies through a qualitative analysis of interviews, focus groups and walking tours. The results reveal the importance of dimensions such as affect and attachment, sense of belonging and participation in the generation of social integration, thus allowing for the discussion of perspectives on integration that are based exclusively on spatial proximity. Uno de los principales desafíos para la integración social en las ciudades latinoamericanas es la presencia de asentamientos informales, que alojan a un porcentaje importante de la población urbana empobrecida. Si bien en Chile la informalidad urbana es menos frecuente que en otros países de la región, el reciente crecimiento de los campamentos le otorga una mayor relevancia al problema. En este contexto, el presente artículo estudia los efectos de integración social y exclusión de las políticas dirigidas a asentamientos informales en Chile, específicamente a través del Programa de Campamentos y su ejecución entre 2011 y 2018. Para ello, se analizan los resultados de catastros de campamentos y se realiza un estudio de cuatro casos de estrategias de cierre de campamentos en diferentes regiones del país, a través de un análisis de entrevistas, grupos focales y recorridos colectivos. Los resultados relevan la importancia de incorporar dimensiones como el afecto y apego, el sentido de pertenencia y la participación en la generación de integración social, lo que permite discutir las perspectivas sobre la integración que se basan exclusivamente en la cercanía espacial.
