ResumenCon este trabajo se busca reflexionar acerca del concepto de innovación social, interpelando su capacidad explicativa para la disciplina del Trabajo Social; para ello se pretende poner en diálogo algunos de los debates existentes en torno a este concepto y ofrecer unas dimensiones mínimas que permitan analizar las estrategias de innovación social que desarrollan ciertos colectivos afectados para responder a las necesidades sociales. Se trata de construir unas 'gafas' que permitan una mirada analítica a nuevas realidades y a las estrategias que desarrollan algunos colectivos sociales para resolver situaciones de vulnerabilidad severa. Finalmente se presenta un estudio de caso: una estrategia colectiva que pretende dar respuesta a problemas habitacionales severos y que se viene desarrollando en la ciudad de Sevilla, la Corrala Utopía. El artículo pone de relieve los elementos de innovación social comunitaria que produce la experiencia estudiada. Palabras clave: innovación social comunitaria, Trabajo Social, Corrala Utopía, Sevilla; ocupación de vivienda. AbstractThis work aims to reflect on the concept of social innovation, questioning its explanatory capacity for the discipline of social work. For this purpose, certain on-going debates with regard to this concept are examined and certain minimum dimensions are offered to enable an analysis of the social innovation strategies that certain affected groups implement to meet social needs. The approach is to construct «glasses» that permit an analytical engagement with new realities and with the strategies used by certain social groups to resolve situations of severe vulnerability. Finally, a case study is presented: a strategic group known as the Corrala Utopía that seeks to respond to severe housing problems and is developing in the city of Seville. The article highlights the elements of community social innovation emerging from the experience studied. Keywords: community social innovation, Social Work, Corrala Utopía, Seville, housing occupation. 1 Las autoras desean agradecer las observaciones y sugerencias realizadas por quienes efectuaron las revisiones anónimas.
