Abstract
PEREZ VALENZUELA, Domingo Javier. Ethics In Geography: The Omission of Capitalist Property in the Urban Justice Debate. Cuad. Geogr. Rev. Colomb. Geogr. [online]. 2022, vol.31, n.2, pp.519-529. Epub Nov 17, 2022. ISSN 0121-215X. https://doi.org/10.15446/rcdg.v31n2.94092.
The debate on urban justice identifies the space of the city as a substratum equivalent to the reproductive world. Specifically, urbanization is described as the result of a surplus of production; therefore, an effect of what happens inside capitalist property. In this way, finally, the private company is discarded from the urban debate. This text identifies the ethical foundations in the literature on socio-spatial justice vs. capitalist private property, problematizing the invisibility of the latter in the imaginary of the debate. This implies taking a position on the imperative and dilemma between expanding or limiting urban justice in front the means of production for human development.
Highlights:
Reflection paper that reviews the meaning of the city in the urban justice debate and questions the omission of capitalist private property in such literature, revising in a new way the normative foundations of this problem. With this, it is proposed to assume the ethical imperative regarding the dilemma of expanding the geography of urban justice on the capitalist company.
Keywords : ethical city; just city; right to the city; capitalist property; territory; urbanism.
