This paper analyzes poverty in Chile. The more traditional meanings are economic and even other social meanings subsequently emerged have deficiencies to grasp the complexity of this phenomenon. Limiting poverty to family, ignoring gender asymmetries and power relations within it and in society, it gives us a partial view of this social problem. We have to look into the “harmony of the home” and besides of to recognize the material and immaterial lack, that there is a temporary shortage affecting mainly to women.
