HINCAPIE JIMENEZ, Sandra Miled. Urban and Feminist Climate Governance in the Metropolitan Area of Mexico City. Estud. Polit. [online]. 2023, n.66, pp.126-150. Epub 27-Jun-2023. ISSN 0121-5167. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.espo.n66a06.
This article analyzes the conflictive processes of governance and urban climate justice that led to the declaration of the Natural Protected Area and the mega-project Parque Ecológico Lago de Texcoco, one of the largest urban parks in the world, in the Metropolitan Area of Mexico City. Based on a transnational feminist approach, the comparative sequential method is used to trace the processes of a socio-environmental conflict that lasted for more than twenty years, including episodes of violence and sexual torture against women by state forces. The article explains the positioning and strategies of inclusion/exclusion of different interests and languages of valuation that make Lake Texcoco’s a paradigmatic case of governance and urban climate justice. Likewise, this case also highlights the complexity of the social agreements necessary for an adaptation that includes women, protects their rights, closes the door to impunity, and guarantees a life free of violence to construct sustainable urban spaces.
