CATULLO, Maria Rosa  e  COUN, Elizabeth. Estudios de impactos sociales en el Mercosur: Procesos relocalizatorios, nuevos espacios urbanos y reconstrucción de redes de relaciones sociales. Cuad. antropol. soc. [online]. 2002, n.15, pp.49-69. ISSN 1850-275X.

In this paper we analyze and compare the experiences of the inhabitants of the Nueva Federación city (province of Entre Ríos, Argentina) and the Itá city (Santa Catarina State, Brazil), who were resettled as result of the building of the Argentinian-Uruguayan Salto Grande and the Brazilian Itá hidroelectric dams (Santa Catarina and Rio Grande del Sur States). Our study focuses on the perception that different local actors involved had concerning the newly planned urban spaces, and how they rebuilt their social and private environments. Besides, we analize the loss and the transformations in their social networks and daily lives, result of the new conception of those urban spaces which were intended to create "a new lifestyle" for them.
