BARRERA LOMBANA, Luis Carlos Miguel. City transformation through small doses. Urban renewal 'lot by lot' in Bogotá (2008-2018). Rev. Ciudades Estados Política [online]. 2021, vol.8, n.1, pp.17-32.  Epub Dec 15, 2021. ISSN 2462-9103.

The text tackles the transformation plot by plot in the urban area of Bogotá, carrying out an analysis of the impact and its spatial distribution on an urban scale between 2008 and 2018. This exercise is done in order to make visible a process that has not been given enough attention because of the particular characteristics of its procedure. To do this, geographic information is processed at plot level and a spatial autocorrelation is carried out considering the variable of urban land area modified under this dynamic in relation to its location in the city. The results show the dimension of this type of transformation and the different variations it presents. Finally, the article makes reflections in two ways: on the one hand, it proposes the need to make local approaches from morphology, including physical, social, economic and cultural variables; and from the other hand, it demands a change in disciplinary and professional approaches to the intervention of the built city.

Keywords : urban renewal; built city; urban morphology; Bogotá.
