SANIN SANTAMARIA, Juan Diego. HOGAR EN TRANSITO: APROPIACIONES DOMÉSTICAS DE LA VIVIENDA DE INTERÉS SOCIAL (VIS) Y RECONFIGURACIONES DEL SENTIDO DE HOGAR. Antipod. Rev. Antropol. Arqueol. [online]. 2008, n.7, pp.31-61. ISSN 1900-5407.

This paper presents the results of a study about a resettlement process from the area of El Morro in the neighborhood of Moravia in Medellin (Colombia), to state-built houses. It describes the different ways in which the residents occupied the architectural spaces of the new houses. The intention is to show the tensions that emerge when the new inhabitants try to reconstruct, in a different environment, their traditional way of life and sense of home, characteristic of popular culture.

Keywords : Domestic space; material culture; informal housing; social housing; cultural studies.
