Abstract

MIGUEL VELASCO, Andrés Enrique et al. Firewood, sustainability, inequality and multicultural cities. Perf. latinoam. [online]. 2021, vol.29, n.58, 00005.  Epub June 19, 2023. ISSN 0188-7653.  https://doi.org/10.18504/pl2958-005-2021.

If the consumption of firewood is unfavorable for the environment of the cities, does this happen in Oaxaca? The objective of this article is to analyze, for the period 2000-2015, if the sustainable development of 17 of the cities with the largest population, which fulfill the function of central place in Oaxaca, Mexico, is adversely influenced by the use of firewood in the homes. For this, with documentary data, have been created indices of sustainable development and housing with use of firewood, applying Bayesian statistical analysis, regression, and networks. The results indicate that if the levels of development of the cities increase, the consumption of firewood also increases.

Keywords : cities; housing; sustainable development; firewood; multiculturalism; Oaxaca.
