摘要：The late opportunities that systematization represents for Chilean social work are the result of a slow process of recognition of its potential as a knowledge construction proposal, originated in the adverse conditions derived from the national context and from the academic undervaluation that it has had to face throughout its theoretical and methodological development. In such a framework, this article aims to present the main antecedents of the historical development of systematization in Chile in order to understand, in perspective, the current disadvantageous position it occupies in the country.
