Abstract

MAIDANA, Elena  and  DEL ROSARIO MILLAN, María. Resonancias mediáticas de transformaciones urbanas en Posadas, Misiones. Cuad. urbano [online]. 2009, vol.8, n.8. ISSN 1853-3655.

In this article we briefly reviewed the processes of urbanization of the city of Posadas, Misiones, Argentina, and synthetically characterize the social and spatial dynamic the city exhibits at this moment. We describe the media's treatment of certain projects and public policies being implemented on the riparian side of the city, and contrast it with the treatment of the situation generated by housing policies that tend to develop a new urban periphery and the compulsive relocation of urban poor. We also reproduce the results of meetings held with neighbors in which, on the basis of Municipal Ordinances, the city's actual situation and, specifically, its public space and citizen participation were discussed and debated.

Keywords : Urbanization; media.
