114 p.En el presente estudio se pretendi? indagar si se puede o no establecer un tipo de relaci?n entre la adquisici?n de vivienda propia con la movilidad social. En tal sentido se busc? observar el caso del programa de vivienda ?Mi Casa Ya? en torno a su modelo de ?Vivienda de Inter?s Social? aplicado en la ciudad de Ibagu?, espec?ficamente en el conjunto de apartamentos Alminar Samoa, en el que habitan beneficiarios del programa de vivienda en menci?n. Como ejercicio te?rico se reflexion? sobre las categor?as movilidad social e instituciones ya fueran formales o informales para as? vincularlas con el fen?meno de las pol?ticas sociales en materia de vivienda; ello como requisito para abordar la poblaci?n objeto de estudio. Metodol?gicamente, esta investigaci?n se apoy? en el paradigma emp?rico anal?tico, siendo las t?cnicas cuantitativas los recursos m?s pertinentes para dar cuenta de las relaciones causales que se pretendieron explicar. De forma complementaria se recurri? a t?cnicas cualitativas que permitieron comprender, desde el discurso de los participantes el sentido y el significado asociado a las variables instituciones y movilidad social.This study was aimed to inquire whether or not, it is possible to establish a relationship between home ownership and social mobility. On this matter, we sought to observe the case of the housing program "Mi Casa Ya" around its model of "Social Interest Housing" applied in the city of Ibagu?, specifically in the Alminar Samoa apartment complex, which is inhabited by beneficiaries of the housing program at issue. As a theoretical exercise, we took into consideration the categories of social mobility and institutions, either formal or informal, for the purpose of linking them to the phenomenon of social policies in the domain of housing, this as a requirement to address the population under study. Methodologically, this research was based upon the analytical-empirical paradigm, with quantitative techniques being the most pertinent resources to clarify the causal relationships that we strived to explain. In a complementary way, qualitative techniques were used to acknowledge the sense and meaning associated with the variables institutions and social mobility from the discourse of the partakers.
