MARTINEZ TORO, Pedro Martín. The production of space in the Latin American city: the model of the impact of global capitalism metropolization. Hallazgos [online]. 2015, vol.12, n.23, pp.211-229. ISSN 1794-3841.  https://doi.org/10.15332/s1794-3841.2015.0023.0010.

In the last thirty years, cities in Latin America have undergone significant changes in its territorial characteristics (socio-spatial), which makes updating relevant reflections on the characteristics of the possible changes that have occurred in this recent period. This article takes up the proposed modeling of the Latin American city, especially those describing the contemporary phase model called by scholars as fragmented city, stadium where the emergence of global capital is evident from the eighties of the twentieth century and displayed, based on studies of some Latin American cities, representative territorial features of these urban changes. The central hypothesis of the article suggests that the cities of metropolitan character of Latin America are privileged stage in the processes of globalization and this has brought consequences in the recent territorial mutations. Phenomenon without being replicated exactly -saves their particularities from one city to another-it self presents common features that can be modeled for your understanding. The methodology used is -not exhaustive review of some studies that propose modeling of the Latin American city to identify the characteristics of perceived changes that define the model stages, while retakes case studies from the cities of Bogotá (Colombia), Buenos Aires (Argentina), Santiago (Chile) and Sao Paulo (Brazil) where the relevance of the model is demonstrated.
