LINK, Felipe; MORA, Rodrigo; GREENE, Margarita y FIGUEROA, Cristhian. Patterns of network sociability in vulnerable neighbourhoods: two cases in Santiago, Chile. Bitácora Urbano Territorial [online]. 2017, vol.27, n.3, pp.9-18. ISSN 0124-7913. https://doi.org/10.15446/bitacora.v27n3.42574.
The built and social urban space in contemporary cities are in a continuous transformation process. In this context, neighbourhoods have a double function that gathers community values while operates as link between the homes and the metropolis. The neighbourhood's role in the building of the community is especially relevant in vulnerable neighbourhoods. In Chile, after years of housing public policies that privileged the construction of houses, the focus has changed towards neighbourhood improvement with multi-sectorial integral interventions. In this context, the objective of the present paper is to evaluate the relationship between the physical space and the sociability structures of inhabitants from vulnerable neighbourhoods in the process of consolidation in Santiago de Chile, through the analysis of two cases in the municipality of El Bosque. The general hypothesis is that the physic space and the configuration of many vulnerable neighbourhoods, work as a structure-that-structures social relation, capable of inhibiting sociability and favouring urban isolation.
