ORIARD COLIN, Lila. Contra la ciudad-museo: el papel del comercio callejero para la conservación del patrimonio urbano de los barrios tradicionales. Apuntes [online]. 2011, vol.24, n.2, pp.288-299. ISSN 1657-9763.

The practices of urban heritage conservation which focus primarly in the beautification of a neighborhood can promote a modification in the social and economic local structures. In this case, the loss of social diversity and the specialization of the local economy can transform the neighborhood into an "exclusive" place which serves only to one group: the tourists. To combat this tendency to produce city-museums from the traditional neighborhoods, it is necessary to identify those tangible and intangible elements that contribute to maintain the physical structure as well as the different social categories of residents and their everyday practices related to space. When trading in the streets serves mainly to residents and it participates to widen the range of products and diversify the forms of vending, its conservation as part of the urban space can contribute to maintain the qualities of a neighborhood as a place "for all".

Palabras clave : street-trade; conservation; urban heritage; traditional neighborhood; production of space; Urban space; Urban development - Social aspects; Cultural heritage.
