Urban informality and state intervention: The case of Lima

Year: 2022

Type: article

Abstract: The research compares urban development models linking urban informality and State intervention in Lima between 1946 and 1975, identified through the analysis of morphology, consolidation, and incrementality in the cases of San Cosme, Ciudad de Dios, and Villa El Salvador . The objective is to establish urban intervention strategies from a SWOT matrix based on the urban dynamics and the informality/State response of the Peruvian cases, resulting in new strategies for application in similar informal contexts in the global south.
