CECILIA-ROSA, Paula. Public Space Exclusions of Street Dwellers in the City of Buenos Aires. Territ. [online]. 2018, n.39, pp.157-173. ISSN 0123-8418.  https://doi.org/10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/territorios/a.5632.

This article intends to delve into some of the possible consequences that the implementation of neoliberal policies entails in the public space, specifically, in the City of Buenos Aires. The article focuses on the characterization of the notion of neoliberal city, to later enter into the forms that neoliberal spatiality assumes in that city through the case of the street dwellers, that is, people and families that reside daily in the public space. To develop what is intended, the article will deal with the ways in which this population is expelled from the public space by indirect actions as directed by the city administration. Likewise, it intends to announce a new trend in this same direction but carried out by another actor. Reference is made to the modality by which a part of the citizenry assumes, by its own means, the rearrangement of the urban space through the installation of physical barriers to avoid or impede the presence of this population in the surroundings of their properties. This action would allow observing the situation that certain social groups go through in an increasingly exclusive city.

Palavras-chave : City; neoliberalism; public space; street dwellers.
