“…Las tensiones entre la posición en el espacio de las personas con sus características ocupacionales cuentan además con análisis desde el enfoque de género (Pratt, & Hanson, 1991), la expansión urbana (Storper, & Scott, 2009), estudios sobre racismo (Chari, 2010) y movilidad (Van Ham et al, 2016) o grupos migrantes (Benasii et al, 2020), entre otras formas de abordar el problema urbano de la segregación residencial.…”

Este estudio explora la segregación residencial en Chile, enfocándose en el capital humano avanzado como indicador de nivel socioeconómico. Utilizando datos del censo 2002 y 2017, se aborda la segregación a escalas nacional, regional y comunal mediante el índice de disimilitud. Los hallazgos revelan una marcada segregación en las principales ciudades. De manera especulativa, los niveles de segregación son tan altos que sería necesario reubicar al 54 % de la población para aumentar significativamente los niveles de integración urbana. Desde enfoques más fehacientes, estos hallazgos implican la importancia de descentralizar la educación y crear condiciones habitacionales que promuevan la productividad y la innovación. La investigación concluye que las políticas neoliberales han limitado la construcción de ciudades integradas y que las estrategias existentes han sido insuficientes para abordar la raíz de la desigualdad y segregación residencial en Chile.

“…Building on this framework, large research has been conducted to document and understand the determinants of racial and residential segregation across several European countries (Baerveldt et al, 2004; van Ham et al, 2016; Vermeij et al, 2009), in the United States (Batty, 2013; Clark, 1991; Henderson, 2014; Möbius & Rosenblat, 2001), and Israel (Hatna & Benenson, 2012). However, empirical findings rarely proved Schelling’s prediction of extreme racial spatial separation and ghettos to be correct (Easterly, 2009; Ong, 2017).…”

Segregation with social linkages: Evaluating Schelling’s model with networked individuals

2021

This paper generalizes the original Schelling model of racial and residential segregation to a context of variable externalities due to social linkages. In a setting in which individuals' utility function is a convex combination of a heuristic function à la Schelling, of the distance to friends, and of the cost of moving, the prediction of the original model gets attenuated: the segregation equilibria are not the unique solutions. While the cost of distance has a monotonic pro-status-quo effect, equivalent to that of models of migration and gravity models, if friends and neighbors are formed following independent processes, the location of friends in space generates an externality that reinforces the initial configuration if the distance to friends is minimal, and if the number of friends is high. The effect on segregation equilibria crucially depends on the role played by network externalities.

“…Only a partial answer to this question is possible because of a relative neglect of attention to ethnic minorities in housing research in recent decades. Although there is a well-established body of literature on minorities and housing in continental Europe that includes work on housing policy, housing practices and the experiences of minorities in the housing market (Musterd and Andersson, 2005;Musterd and Van Kempen, 2009;Bolt et al, 2010;Van Ham et al, 2016) comparable work is lacking in the UK (Markkanen and Harrison, 2013). Housing studies in Britain is in dire need of up-to-date research that explores how increasing diversity coupled with strains in the housing market differently affect black and minority ethnic households.…”
