Abstract
We give a short proof of a presentation of the Chow ring of the Fulton-MacPherson compactification of n points on an algebraic variety. The result can be found already in Fulton and MacPherson's original paper. However, there is an error in one of the lemmas used in their proof. In the process we also determine the Chow rings of weighted Fulton--MacPherson compactifications.
