Fragmentos ribereños al margen de la ciudad: propuestas metodológicas para el Estudio de procesos socio-espaciales en el territorio periférico y ribereño de la ciudad de Corrientes, Argentina

Abstract

The riverside areas of the city of Corrientes, Argentina, are territories of great heterogeneity in theirconfiguration and with marked inequality in the urban-environmental and social conditions; constituted in many cases as peripheral and marginal spaces in the city. They are dichotomous spaces of threats and opportunities,because of the river flooding, th eir landscape interesting conditions to the housing market, the functioning of the river as a resource of production, of subsistence. They turn into areas of dispute, sensitive to processes of territorialization and deterritorializationopposite to actors' spheres into inequality of possibilities and powers. The aim of this investigation is to contribute to the knowledge on the dynamics of urban production, and the socio-spatial processes of these complex territories. The work exposes the initial methodological approaches, the preliminary advances of concepts, data of context and analogous cases of study.
