Abstract

ORTEGA VILLA, Luz María. Tipología del consumo de bienes culturales en Mexicali, B. C.. Frontera norte [online]. 2006, vol.18, n.36, pp.53-85. ISSN 2594-0260.

Based on the data obtained through a 2003 study among popular sectors in Mexicali, Baja California, México, this work presents the results of applying multivariate analysis to a group of selected variables, in order to establish a typology on consumption of cultural goods in the population object of the study. Thus, the concepts used are delimited, and the study as well as the methodology used are briefly presented, while the last part describes the characteristics of each of the four types found, where the marginality level -as an expression of economic inequality- appears as a key element in understanding the differences found in the consumption of cultural goods.

Keywords : consumption; culture; cultural goods; marginality; Mexicali.
