The contribution of perceptive maps to the analysis of ZEN, Palermo (Italy) La percepción del espacio urbano. El aporte de los mapas perceptivos al análisis del barrio ZEN de Palermo (Italia) Zenteno Torres, Elizabeth For Italians, the ZEN area (Zona Espansione Nord), Palermo, is an urban space associated with marginality and exclusion, drug trafficking, mafia, violence and deviant behavior. This paper analyzes the perception of ZEN residents about their urban space. To this end, different perceptive maps are used in order to identify visual and subjective representations as they enable the emergence of personal views about the urban space that are difficult to express in words. When drawing, respondents express their individual opinions and depict their neighborhood; these being critical for social research. In this way perceptive maps enable the graphical visualization of the fragmentation experienced by the urban space, which is expressed at different levels. They also identify certain infrastructures that serve as benchmarks and different types of perception that vary according to the level of educational achievement of respondents. This paper addresses the subjective dimension about the urban space and encourages us to reflect on the need to explore different methodologies to understand the complex individualities underlying this subjective dimension; it also acknowledges the important role of subjectivity within the study of urban phenomena. El barrio ZEN (Zona Espansione Nord) de Palermo representa en el imaginario social italiano un espacio urbano sinónimo de marginalidad y exclusión, de tráfico de drogas, mafia, violencia y comportamientos desviados. En este trabajo analizamos la percepción del espacio urbano que tienen los residentes de este barrio. Para ello se utilizan mapas perceptivos, que permiten conocer su representación visual y subjetiva. Los mapas perceptivos constituyen un complemento para la entrevista, ya que hacen emerger aquella dimensión subjetiva del espacio urbano que es difícil expresar con palabras. Al dibujar, el entrevistado expresa su subjetividad, su interpretación del barrio, que es de fundamental importancia para la investigación social. En este sentido los mapas perceptivos han permitido visualizar gráficamente la fragmentación del espacio urbano, que se expresa en diversos niveles. Además identifican ciertas infraestructuras del barrio que constituyen elementos de referencia. Se distinguen también diferencias en la percepción según nivel de educación. Entonces el presente documento da cuenta de la dimensión subjetiva del espacio urbano y abre la reflexión en torno a la necesidad de explorar metodologías que permitan captar esta dimensión subjetiva de la ciudad en su compleja individualidad; y pone en valor su importancia para el estudio de los fenómenos urbanos.
