PARRADO RODRIGUEZ, Cristhian. Spatial Proximity and Social Integration: Contributions and Debates from Quito. Territ. [online]. 2020, n.43, pp.6-36. Epub 01-Abr-2021. ISSN 0123-8418. https://doi.org/10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/territorios/a.7296.
This article explores how spatial proximity influences the construction of social bonds between households of different socioeconomic conditions in Quito. It focuses on a specific area of the northwest of the city, where recently an intergroup alliance was created among its residents to oppose a public mobility project. From a multidimensional reading of socio-spatial integration, the effects of the social mixture of this area are analyzed in: the creation of educational and labor opportunities, the interaction and construction of social relations, and the identification with a common territory. The findings reveal that the proximity of households has a positive impact on the formation of social bonds, the perception of the other and on the affiliation with the territory, this particularly from intergroup political responses where the shared space is privileged instead of the socioeconomic difference. In this way, the article invites to incorporate the political link to consider social integration in the Latin American city.
