While there is scarce research on regional inequality for Chilean higher education,  \n1 The research presented in this paper was funded by the UTA-Mayor grants 2019 of the Universidad de Tarapacá, Chile.  \nit is a well-recognized concern within global debates. In this study, the testimonies of rectors link perceptions of regional inequality to the historic, political, and managerial dimensions that have determined their institutions’ development. As the problem of regional inequality stems from a tradition of political centralization, the neoliberal transformations, imposed since 1981, were singled out by the rectors for institutionalizing patterns of marketization that reinforced “inequalities of origin” for state-regional universities. Since the 2000s, trends of massification, regulation, and student protests reshaped higher education, leading to sectorial reform in 2018. However, competitive disadvantages are seen to continue to hinder the public role of state-regional universities. Institutional development strategies emerged, under the direction of rectors, to compensate for such inequalities, differentiating between winners and losers of neoliberal higher education. This article characterizes the modes of reproduction and overcoming of regional inequalities among state universities under neoliberal policy.  \nKeywords: state-regional universities; regional inequalities; neoliberal higher education; centralization; marketization  \nDesigualdades regionales en las universidades estatales en Chile: Perspectivas sobre centralización y desarrollo neoliberal  \nResumen: Considerando las perspectivas de las mayores autoridades de universidades estatalesregionales (llamados rectores) y utilizando estadísticas públicas en educación superior, discutimos las fuentes de desigualdad regional en el sistema universitario chileno. A pesar de que hay escasa investigación sobre desigualdad regional en la educación superior chilena, este es un tema reconocido en debates globales. En este estudio, los testimonios de los rectores vinculan sus percepciones de desigualdad con las dimensiones históricas, políticas y administrativas que determinan el desarrollode sus instituciones. Mientras el problema de la desigualdad regional viene de una tradición decentralización política, las transformaciones neoliberales que se imponen desde 1981 fueronseñaladas por los rectores por institucionalizar patrones de mercadización que reforzaron“desigualdades de origen” para las universidades estatales-regionales. Desde los 2000, tendencias demasificación, regulación y protestas estudiantiles transformaron la educación superior, conduciendo auna reforma sectorial en 2018. Sin embargo, se observan desventajas competitivas que continúan limitando el rol público de las universidades estatales-regionales.
