CAGGIANO, Sergio  e  SEGURA, Ramiro. Migration, Frontiers and Displacements in the City. Dynamics of Urban Otherness in Buenos Aires. rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2014, n.48, pp.29-42. ISSN 0123-885X.

Based on an analysis of the urban experience of Bolivian migrants in Buenos Aires, the article problematizes habitual ways of thinking about the relations among territory, difference and inequality: the racial ghetto and the poor periphery. The articlepaper highlights the impossibility of understanding these processes on a unidimensional plane, and emphasizes the relevance of intersections of class, nationality, gender and "race" in the structuring and use of urban space. For this purpose, it analyzes not only the position and geographic location of migrants but also the logic of their circulation and social interactions within the space of the city, which both reproduce and challenge the frontiers that structure urban life.

Palavras-chave : Migration; city; displacement; segregation; intersections.
