The militar dictatorship lived in Chile between 1973 and 1990 punitively chased its detractors, reason why thousands of people had to abandon the country to protect their integrity. Between the different destinations selecte by the diáspora, Sweden was a hospitable society because of the social and political prevailing context. The following article describes how a group of chilean refugees lived their exile at the city of Malmö. The main finding is that the identity of these people had a collective reconstruction as political immigrants after the military dictatorship had come to an end. At the discussion, existing literature about chilean exiled in Europe is regarded and suggestions are made for future research.
