QUINTEROS URQUIETA, Carolina. Shaping practices and habitat: strategies for the daily mobility in the hills of Valparaíso. univ.humanist. [online]. 2018, n.85, pp.125-151. ISSN 0120-4807.  https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.uh85.mphe.

Mobility is an element that gives form to places, and therefore, an articulator of daily life and habitat for the shaping of neighborhoods and their relationship with the city. Bearing this in mind, it is important to reflect on how life is shaped to arrive at a destination. This document aims to present several strategies, according to gender, age, or economic situation, to cover short but physically significant sections, and show how these recreate meanings, forms of use, spaces, places, and consequently, the habitat. The daily experience in two hills of Valparaíso will be presented, from the perspective of daily mobility, through a historical analysis and an ethnographic approach. The results show the physical isolation and the subsequent urban exclusion to which the territories are exposed when the transport systems do not respond to the needs of the inhabitants, and how inhabitants themselves overcome these difficulties to access the city.

Palabras clave : mobility; daily mobility; daily strategies; habitat; Valparaíso.
