Identidades fragmentadas y espacio público; la construcción social de los barrios en una ciudad turística de litoral, Puerto Vallarta Jal.

Abstract

This article describes four factors that make up the identity of the people in the neighborhoods and colonies of the resort town and the value of the quality of public space is retaken. In recent years, with the help of new economic, political and cultural processes in many neighborhoods there have been changes of the physiognomy and population composition, activities, and thus certain imageries have tended to disappear while new ones emerge . The public space for meeting areas that have lost their sense of identity by society is consequently a space that is no longer considered as a place. These sites are abandonment and turn on a waste of physical space in which they are found, leading aversion of residents and visitors to these areas at the same time, become degraded areas that citizenship prevents and eliminates their urban imagery. Given this scenario, the present study attempted to elucidate forwards this "neighborhood identity", meaning that the question of the genesis of this type of identity is an essential first step to later analyze the discourses on its mutation or loss.
