Abstract
ZAPATA, María Cecilia. Traces of capitalist restructuring. An analysis of the urban transformation of the Metropolitan Region of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Estud. demogr. urbanos [online]. 2020, vol.35, n.3, pp.663-694. Epub Dec 22, 2020. ISSN 2448-6515. https://doi.org/10.24201/edu.v35i3.1892.
Each phase of development of the capitalist system left traces in the territorial configuration of the Metropolitan Region of the City of Buenos Aires, Argentina. The objective of this article is to characterize and analyze the transformations in the urban structure of this region between the years of the neoliberal model (1976-2001) and the extractivist neo-development (since 2001), identifying ruptures and continuities between both capitalist accumulation models and their impacts at territorial scale. For this purpose, a qualitative methodology was used, based on the reconstruction of data from secondary sources and informal interviews with scholarly referents of the subject.
Keywords : city; urban transformations; urban management; neoliberalism; extractivist neo-development; accumulation regime.
