| Sumario: | The objective of this article is to analyze the ways of living of social actors who are agents of an urbanization process of a peri-urban space: horticultural producers and inhabitants of a popular settlement. While the productive fields are the historically predominant spaces in a green belt of regional relevance, the popular neighborhoods are one of the residential uses that has been disputing most strongly the productive use. We will show the dynamics of living in “fields” and from “popular neighborhoods”, as twoparticular spaces, which configure specific ways of living, but which in turn are crossed by actors who put them in dialogue and tension, and reconfigure them in a dwelling between both. They all share very limited access to infrastructure and services, and at the same time they outline specific ways of inhabiting and producing urbanization in the peri-urban area. We work from a qualitative methodology, with an ethnographic approach that seeks to capture the urban experience of the actors. |
