MOLINA CORREA, Javier Alexander. Geese flying in a V shape: community building, defensible space and collective efficacy in a neighborhood of Cali, Colombia. Hallazgos [online]. 2018, vol.15, n.29, pp.157-183. ISSN 1794-3841. https://doi.org/10.15332/s1794-3841.2018.0029.07.
The city of Santiago de Cali in Colombia has been characterized since the beginning of the century as one of the most insecure cities in the world. Given the State's inability to guarantee order, there are initiatives from the communities in which they seek to mitigate the absence of security with collective actions thus replacing this institutional failure. This work seeks to explore the experience of the neighborhood Marco Fidel Suarez, one of the communities with fewer deaths in the city thanks to strategies such as voluntary enclosure through the installation of fences in strategic points, regulation of entry and exit of residents in addition to activities designed and implemented by the Community Action Board in order to manage a peaceful coexistence. The theory of "Collective Efficacy" by Robert Sampson, Oscar Newman's "Defensible Space" and the adaptation of the concept of "Multifamily Residential Spaces" are used, supported by qualitative methodological tools such as interview and passive observation in order to understand and explain the development of the mentioned strategies.
