Topophilia trajectories in South Quito El sentir frente a la estigmatización territorial. Travesías de topofilia en el Sur de Quito Santillán Cornejo, Alfredo Miguel Quito, the capital of Ecuador, is characterized by an urban order with a strong fantasy component in which the so-called 'South' is imagined as a subaltern space in relation to the 'North', generating stigmatizing effects. Based on the fact that the fictional condition has concrete repercussions in the construction of a sense of bonding, belonging and attachment to the inhabited space, this paper focuses on showing the emotions and feelings resulting from a situation of segregation with an important imaginary component. These tensions can be synthesized in two aspects. First, the emotions of discomfort and anger resulting from humiliation, which gives rise to the emergence of disputes to demystify injurious prejudices towards the 'South'. Second, the feelings of withdrawal which, under certain circumstances, deny or disguise the place of residence to avoid social discredit. Quito, la capital ecuatoriana, se caracteriza por un orden urbano con un fuerte componente fantasioso, en el que el denominado ‘Sur’ es imaginado como un espacio subalterno en relación al ‘Norte’, generando efectos estigmatizantes. El artículo se centra en mostrar las emociones y sentimientos que devienen de una situación de segregación con un fuerte componente imaginario, partiendo de que la condición ficcional no deja de tener repercusiones concretas en la construcción de sentido de apego, pertenencia y arraigo hacia el espacio habitado. Estas tensiones se pueden sintetizar en dos frentes: por un lado las emociones de malestar e ira frente a la humillación que se capitalizan en disputas abiertas por desmitificar los prejuicios injuriosos sobre el ‘Sur’ y por otro lado los sentimientos de retraimiento que en determinadas circunstancias conducen a la negación o encubrimiento del lugar de residencia para evitar la desacreditación social.
