Abstract

In this paper paper we propose to explain the logical aspect of survival strategies of homeless people in Salta city nowadays. These people experience positive and negative situations in the daily search for food or a place where to sleep. These experiences operate as premises and subsequently, by inference, they act strategically to reduce the uncertainty of living on the street.

With this purpose we analyse two years (2014-2015) of fieldwork in which we make participant observations and informal interviews which allows us to ensure the logical aspect of these strategies hardly approached in previous papers.
