Description
Summary:The opportunities of those who inhabit precarious urbanizations are strongly conditioned by variables linked to the physical support of the domestic and neighborhood context. In contexts marked by the progress of drug trafficking, these physical variables are key, and the urban appropriation-rehabilitation of public space is strategic. In coherence with the postulates of microurbanism, the role of the improvement and revaluation of public space in the activation of other psycho-socio-community processes leading to interrupting the circle of segregation, abandonment of public spaces, co-opting them by illegal activities and increased insecurity. Methodologically, this article critically characterizes the integral intervention model designed and implemented in the Müller and Maldonado neighborhoods of the city of Córdoba (Argentina), neighborhoods with low quality of life, increasing informality and advancing insecurity associated with drug trafficking. Under this approach and from the recognition of the need to enable citizens in collective and participatory planning of the territory, the urban design and management strategies implemented in these areas are exposed in order to heal urban deterioration and lead to a transformation of these settlements from more realistic and less expensive interventions.
