| Summary: | To add to the necessary discussion of the right to housing, particularly through charters or constitutions in Latin America and the world as a tool to demand the civil society the right to exercise this right in particular. This analysis specially develops, due to the fact that our Latin-American cities show a very unique phenomenon of segregation and division within its cities, exclusion highlighted by the lack of access to adequate housing, especially by the poorest members of the society. This led them to live in expensive, contaminated, unsafe neighborhoods and cities with a clear deterioration process. Analyzing the different constitutions that have given the framework within which somehow the cities have been built, helps to understand the compatibility or incompatibility of human rights; specially the one concerning the right to adequate housing, which not only refers to the actual house acquisition and its legal possession, not only grounded on "individual property", but also refers to renting, collective property that pushes city social network for life. |
