KURI PINEDA, Edith Elvira. Inhabiting La Fama Neigborhood: Spaces of Collective Identity and Memory. Territ. [online]. 2016, n.34, pp.161-182. ISSN 0123-8418.  https://doi.org/10.12804/territ34.2016.07.

This paper is a sociological interpretation about the way that space, collective identity and memory embody in the neighborhood La Fama, south of México City. Diverse ethnographic techniques were applied -as in-depth interviews, participant observation, mental maps, tours in the neighborhood with locals-. As we will see, the collective identity of the locals, has a close relationship with several vital places, which in turn are triggers of the intersubjective memory.

Keywords : Space; collective identity; memory; inhabit; ontological security; urbanization.
