    From periphery and peri-urban to margin: understanding the space of expansion of the Latin American city
    (Palgrave Macmillan, 2021) Robles Robles, Maria Sarella; Rodriguez, Norma; Hidalgo Dattwyler, Rodrigo
    Previous works on the expansion of the Latin American cities are mostly based on theoretical and methodological perspectives arising from different socio-spatial contexts. However, a recent call has been made from postcolonial urban studies to open the understanding of the production of space from the Global South. Considering the above, an alternative theoretical-methodological proposal is presented, which could evidence the production of a space not recognized by the predominant categories used in the literature. In theoretical terms, differentiated spaces could be interpreted from the margin, understood as a space located outside a pre-existing totality; thus, allowing the production of new spatial forms. In terms of method, an analogical dialectical reasoning is proposed to identify the similarities and differences between the expansion space and the predominant categories used to interpret it. To achieve this, geographical space is studied from a perspective that integrates its physical and social dimensions. Finally, the methodology is presented taking as cases the city of Santiago, Chile and Morelia, Mexico.

    Is it possible to live together? Conflicts over housing in Greater Santiago
    (Palgrave Macmillan, 2021) Fuster Farfan, Xenia; Alvarado Peterson, Voltaire; Hidalgo Dattwyler, Rodrigo
    Based on case studies located in Las Condes and Penalolen, both municipalities of Greater Santiago, an examination of the conflicts that triggers integration through subsidiary instruments promoted by the State within the framework of new guidelines for social and territorial integration. The analytical proposal is framed in three axes: the crisis of the social link, the principle of recognition and conflicts surrounding the NIMBY phenomenon. The case studies contemplate different stages for these conflicts, which allows the delivery of a classification essay as final considerations to advance their study and contribute in the future to a policy that is still novel in the Chilean context.

    Organization of land market and location subsidies of housing as solutions in neoliberal politics in Chile and Mexico
    (2021) Hidalgo Dattwyler, Rodrigo; Calleja Martinez, Marco; Alvarado Peterson, Voltaire; Salinas Arreourtua, Luis
    This research is based on the need to identify the origin of the social housing subsidy model, oriented to location and urban containment in Chile and Mexico, analyzing, from a critical perspective, the structuring processes of neoliberal law and public policies, with the construction of the territorial management model for development. To do this, it is asked whether it is possible to consider the current subsidiary social housing policy, as a model emulated by Latin American governments to materialize the deregulation of the urban land market in the region. Specifically, they analyze the regulatory and institutional frameworks of Chilean housing policy, with the implementation of the conditional system of location subsidies in Mexico.

    (2021) Hidalgo Dattwyler, Rodrigo; Vergara Constela, Carlos; Gonzalez Rodriguez, Miguel Felipe
    An analysis of Arica (Chile) is presented as a border city. It aims to describe and analyze the migratory mobility of the city of Arica and the settlements where the migrant population resides, a discussion centered on Latin American bibliography on border cities, mobility, migration and human settlements is proposed, where we resort to the categories of the ghetto and precarious city. Data production techniques were applied combining statistical production from official sources together with observation and documentary analysis. The results show that the migrant population is mainly Peruvian, Bolivian and tends to be in three large areas of the city: north, south and valley of Azapa. It is specifically investigated in the case of Cerro Chuno, which is problematized as a migrant settlement, discussing the expression of ghetto and precarious city.
