BOLDRINI, Paula  and  MALIZIA, Matilde. Residential Fragmentation in Intermediate Cities of Northwestern Argentina During Neodevelopmentalism. Folia [online]. 2020, n.38, pp.31-50. ISSN 0325-8238.  http://dx.doi.org/10.30972/fhn.0384105.

The neodevelopmental economic model implemented in the country during the period 2003-2015 aimed at implementing new policies through a new territorial active role of the State. However, the existence of structural differences between this model and neoliberalism, with urban problems, particularly residential is doubted. This article aims to identify and analyze comparatively residential development dynamics and its relationship to the processes of inequality in three intermediate cities in northwestern Argentina during 2001-2015, a period in which prevailed the neodevelopmentalism. Residential logic allows us to understand the setup and expansion of cities from its more widespread use, through which it is possible to identify a pattern of location of the population with different purchasing power with the features and functions of the places where they are located. Thus, it is possible to elucidate the manifestations of social inequality in the territory and analyze the meaning of the dynamics of land occupation, to finally assess whether the neodevelopmental model manages to reverse the neoliberal logic.
