Hello bloggers, today I’m going to talk about something I reading the last days.  Usually I read news on internet in many media but this week I was reading a texts called “Cómo modelar el desarrollo y la dinámica de la ciudad latinoamericana” and "El nuevo modelo de la ciudad latinoamericana: fragmentación y privatización" . These are a academic text and I reading these texts with others texts with a similar thematic for make a work for an investigation of subject called “Social Geography” (work I deliver late L ). Anyway I enjoy the text because show the stages and models of the conformation of the latinoamerican city according to the autor. This models are totally applicable  to context of our country, in adittion, the autors explain the economics and political reasons for the conformation of the actual urban development. According the autors,  the “Fragmented City” is the actual stage/model of urban development. Today, the way the city develops is through neighborhoods and economic elements that are dispersed and located in small spaces. There are ghettos in high- class zones, but this is possible because it is only through fences and walls, barriers that form "islands of richness and exclusivity".
Janoschka illustrate this with an argentinean example called "Nordelta". Nordelta was declared private city by her own investors.  It's localed to 30 kms from the city and its development occupied a 1.600 hectares for 80.000 high-income people. This "private city" is separated from the rest of urban society by a tight security, also, there are all of type of services in this private city for isolate the habitants of the rest.
