Description
Summary:The local implementation of a New Housing nama in México has become a benchmark which shows progress concerning the allocation of funding for this purpose, CO2 emissions reduction and the cooperation of national and international agencies. This paper’s aim is to assess, through a systematic qualitative analysis approach, the effects of nama on the inhabitants of new housing, on a scale which incorporates their percep- tions and the construction of meaning regarding ‘sustainable housing’ as a social representation, in order to broaden the discussion range and shift the focus away from strictly objective concerns. In the light of information gathered from surveys, interviews and associative analysis charts filled out at the “Rinconada del Rosario” case-study housing development in Tonalá, Jalisco, contrasting realities between the official —instrumentally oriented— quantitative view, and the systematic qualitative approach which depict every-day life, are hereby shown.
