Derecho y la Gestion Urbana

About this book

The book "invites us to reflect on the landscape as a social expression of a certain territorial order and the intrinsic relationships that sustain it. In this dynamic, a new status of place emerges through symbolic marks that refer to sensory perceptions, to collective representations, to subjective constructions. This type of intervention, carried out as characterizations, delimitations and differentiations of places and actors, allows us to recognize discourses of segregation, struggles, and inequalities. To delve into these issues, it takes as a case study the area on the edge of the Riachuelo, an inland river that jurisdictionally divides the City of Buenos Aires with its metropolitan area and that functionally links the urban enclaves on both banks: Nueva Pompeya and Valenti n Alsina. The urban landscape is examined as an edge setting, as a border territory, as a symbolic demarcation in the face of marginality itself. And explanatory arguments are provided on structuring processes in recent decades and intervention criteria in the face of the dense clouds that loom.
