This article aims to consider some of the spatial policies adopted by the last military dictatorship in Argentina (1976-1983) at the town of Santa Fe and its hinterland. We combine more recent approaches to the regime with detailed analyses about some particular cases. Housing projects that continued previous tendencies, innovative private neighborhoods for the elites, and large-infrastructure projects are examined. Different government documents, management reports and local newspapers are analyzed. These actions, based on the opposites order and violence, are conceived as oriented to produce a new space or restore a lost past in which certain collective actors and their interests had more influence than others, but they were not exempt from internal contradictions and questioning.

Keywords : dictatorship; urban planning; spatial policies; order.
