          Abstract

          Resumen La noción de ciudad intermedia ha adquirido gran importancia en años recientes en Chile y en América Latina. Aunque usualmente la referencia de dicha noción es clara, lo que define y distingue a una ciudad intermedia como tal, resulta bastante menos claro. En este artículo, examinamos diferentes propuestas para definir este concepto. Observamos que las definiciones absolutas de tamaño, que suelen usarse como definiciones operacionales, no resultan adecuadas. Además, definiciones basadas en el rol y ubicación que cumplen esas ciudades resultan más útiles, pero ellas también se enfrentan a dificultades. Concluimos planteando que explorar posibilidades que entrega una aproximación que defiende una definición basada en la idea de modo de vida podría ser una aproximación interesante para definir estas ciudades.

          Abstract The notion of intermediate city has acquired great importance in recent years in Chile and Latin America. Although the reference to this notion is usually clear, what defines and distinguishes an intermediate city as such is much less clear. In this article, we examine different proposals for defining this concept. We note that absolute definitions of size, which are often used as operational definitions, are not adequate. In addition, definitions based on the role and location of these cities are more useful, but they too face difficulties. We conclude by suggesting that exploring possibilities provided by an approach that defends a definition based on the idea of way of life could be an interesting approach to define these cities.
