| Riassunto: | Since the end of the eighties, the market dynamics that the neoliberal model has incorporated in the management, organization and planning of cities have put at risk the permanence of green public space. This area of great importance for the quality of citizen life has been susceptible to transformations that violate the character of public use of these places, which has resulted in processes of privatization, loss and commodification. In this order, this article seeks to explain through a case study, how in the 1990s a public green area in Cali is privatized by a renowned club. Based on this, it is investigated which actors and instruments promoted the privatization of this place. For the analysis, this process has as its starting point the current debate on critical urban studies, in relation to the way in which neoliberalism has shaped cities in favor of mercantile logics, affecting the collective spaces that structure the city, putting Evidence of urban tensions concerning the control and usufruct of urban land for the account - in this case - of groups with sociopolitical power. |
