Abstract: One of the characteristics of Latin American cities is the persistent and even growing inaccessibility to cheap land, well located and in living conditions and health for large segments of the population (Morales- Schechinger, 2005). The politics of urban land uses in the region are subject to capitalist logic, in recent times, was secured as a core criterion in shaping these cities (Marengo, 2013). At the same time, the production process and urban space is characterized by an ever closer relationship between the state and business groups. This article aims, in the first instance, to analyze the relationship between inequality and urban space. Subsequently, we address the urban transformations that took place in the city of Córdoba (Argentina) from 1990-2011. For this we focus on the performance and impact of housing policies on urban space Cordoba. We conclude by considering that public policies implemented in the analyzed period (regulation of land use, public - private partnerships and programs, and housing credit) housing have deepened inequalities between social classes, instead of reducing them.
