Urbanismo excluyente versus resistencia en el espacio popular construido en Asunción // Exclusionary urbanism versus resistance in the popular space constructed in Asunción
Year: 2018
Type: article
Abstract: Attempts to clear the Asunción's riparian zone in the 20th century did not prosper and only managed to transfer part of its population. Other migrants occupied the space left by the relocated settlers. The new occupants of the riverbank arrived in the paraguayan capital as a result of the lack of opportunities in the rural area. The construction of road infrastructure works carried out since 2011 in the riparian periphery is producing a radical transformation of the area. Therefore, the conditions are propitiated for the development of large real estate projects and the displacement of the coastal population. People thus lose their right to live in the city while the process of gentrification is consolidated.
