GONZALEZ REDONDO, Carolina. The Hollowing Out that Precedes the Urban Renewal. Reflections from the Project of the Civic Center in the South of Buenos Aires city. Territ. [online]. 2020, n.42, pp.73-94. Epub Mar 18, 2021. ISSN 0123-8418. https://doi.org/10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/territorios/a.7228.
This article reflects the process of legitimization prior to the deployment of urban renewal policies in the south of Buenos Aires. It analyzes the process of symbolic and material hollowing out of a property in the neighborhood of Barracas, in which authorities planned the construction of the civic center. In this sense, this paper dialogues with other works that study the production of urban vacuum as part of the capitalist dynamics of city production. It especially analyses how discourse produces it and how the notion of urban renewal emerges as its associated pair, as its necessary and indisputable answer.
Keywords : Urban vacuum; urban renewal; civic center; discourse analysis; Buenos Aires city.
