CAPRON, Guénola  e  ESQUIVEL HERNANDEZ, María Teresa. The Urban Enclave, a Spatio-Temporal Logic of the Urbanized Periphery: Effects on Residential Segregation and Urban Fragmentation. Cuad. Geogr. Rev. Colomb. Geogr. [online]. 2016, vol.25, n.2, pp.127-150. ISSN 0121-215X.  https://doi.org/10.15446/rcdg.v25n2.54720.

The production of the metropolitan peripheries in Latin America has been characterized by the development of urban, residential and commercial enclaves. These enclaves encompass both large urban housing projects of social interest and subdivisions and gated communities for high-income populations. Both peripheries respond to very different social reasons but have a common spatial logic: the enclave, which deepens the isolation and social distance with its surroundings, generating segregation and fragmentation. We seek to rescue the social and spatial processes of 'enclosing' or 'insularity' in two cases: a gated community in the northeast - Zona Esmeralda- and a social housing urban complex in the east -San Buenaventura-, both bordering the metropolitan area of the Mexico Valley.

Palavras-chave : urban complexes; urban enclave; insularity; urban periphery; gated communities.
