GIROLA, María Florencia. Processes of urban renewal in the area of Metropolitan Buenos Aires: a look through the advance of business-city. Intersecciones antropol. [online]. 2006, n.7, pp.361-374. ISSN 1850-373X.
The main objective of this article is to analyze two processes of urban renewal from a comparative perspective, one in a downtown area of Metropolitan Buenos Aires and the other on the periphery of Buenos Aires. The first case focuses on the transformation of Puerto Madero, and in the second case, attention is brought to bear on the gated urban areas located in Greater Buenos Aires. Both cases are analyzed through the concept of urban landscape. A comparative analysis enables certain characteristics to be reflected upon which have been adopted by these new urban phenomena, characteristics which are related to urban recycling processes based on complementary culture/nature strategies, and the production of security. This article is based on a fieldwork carried out in these urban spaces.
