Abstract
MURILLO GARCIA, Julio César. Territorial Dynamics of Settlements Construction at Otún River in Pereira (1950-2000): Phenomenology of the Territoriality of Inhabitants. Perspectiva Geográfica [online]. 2015, vol.20, n.1, pp.71-102. Epub Jan 31, 2024. ISSN 0123-3769.
This article results from the analysis and interpretation of the territorial dynamics within the informal settlements located at the riverside in the Otun locality in Pereira. The analysis refers to two nodal moments of the construction of these informal settlements: its foundation (1950), and the land seizures (2000). Methodologically, the study is a phenomenology of the inhabitant's daily territoriality from two variables: the socio-economic context, and territorial ties. From this phenomenology, the analysis and interpretation of the subject's territoriality reveals tensions and/or territorial conflicts in regards to Pereira's territorial public policy. These conflicts have taken place in the midst of the implementation of programs and projects of territorial planning that have a manifest hegemonic character. In this way, the article calls for a critical reflection about the implementation of these public polices, and about sustainable territorial development.
