La relocalización como política habitacional en la Ciudad de Buenos Aires. Análisis a partir de los casos de los barrios Rodrigo Bueno y Mundo Grúa.

Abstract

This article discusses two experiences of urban relocation in Buenos Aires City as an implementation of urban housing policy addressed at population under social vulnerability conditions. Such a policy is here interpreted as a combined outcome of a variety of intervening  factors and actors such as housing demands from vulnerable groups of population, the intervention of judicial courts, structural constraints in the urban land market, lobbying from corporate interests, together with the city government´s need to achieve a balance out of the divergent demands in order to keep and eventually enhance its own political legitimacy.
