Segregation is a polysemic concept, whose definition is biased according to the interests of each discipline. Sociologists, geographers, anthropologists, and architects allude to segregation both social, urban, and residential, to refer to the same phenomenon. In this sense, a conceptual theoretical analysis is necessary for which the structuring elements of the concept are identified from its most elementary sense to its specific determinations. To this end, a descriptive review of the accumulated knowledge on the subject is undertaken, mentioning consensus and discrepancies among its most important theoretical references. The consideration of the phenomenon in the social and urban context of current Latin American cities is a constant in the development of this article.

Palavras-chave : city; modernization; social differentiation; urban fragmentation; urban planning, urban sociology.
