RAMIREZ IBARRA, Ramón. Tianguis and city: Commerce, public space and urban criticality in the Mexican Northeast. Rev. Ciudades Estados Política [online]. 2021, vol.8, n.3, pp.95-114.  Epub 21-Jun-2022. ISSN 2462-9103.

One of the least used forms of analysis for the political study of citizenship comes from urban culture. In general, hundreds of pages are poured around strong notions such as the State, nationality, or governability, with very little openness towards a reflective context of political topics and their link with concrete practices, such as urbanity. In such a perspective, there are few analyzes focused on the relationship between the city -understood as a public space- and citizenship -as a condition of attribution or status that assigns equal rights and duties to individuals in a territory-, a social scale essential in any urban projection. In the following article, I propose a reflection based on the analytical symmetry between political science and urban expression as a form of dialogue, whose purpose is the exercise of the notion of public space as a structuring element of the experience of making a city through an everyday element: the Tianguis. Thus, the elements of this practice are recognized in one of the largest metropolitan regions in Mexico: the Monterrey metropolitan area (ZMM).

Palavras-chave : citizenship; democratic culture; public space; governance; social participation; Monterrey metropolitan area.
