From the Illegal Occupation of Land to the Emergence of Settlements: The Social and Political Movement of Homeless Settlers in the Peri-Urban Areas of Santiago during the 1960s and 1970s
This paper deals with the organized illegal appropriation of land which resulted in illegal squatters in Santiago-Chile during the 60's and 70's. The hypothesis being that such illegal squatters are originally the result of a social movement, which then becomes political and is essentially different to other initiatives by the homeless in their search for a solution to their housing problem. This has meant the creation of settlements in the outskirts of the city.
