Environmental conflicts and geographic imaginaries in urban fluvial territories: controversies around the management of flood disaster risk in Bahía Blanca city

Floods, overflows and droughts have acquired a notorious visibility on public policies due to the adverse environmental consequences they generate for the communities that live in the vicinity of the courses/bodies of water and wetlands. Urban river territories have been characterized as areas of in...

description Floods, overflows and droughts have acquired a notorious visibility on public policies due to the adverse environmental consequences they generate for the communities that live in the vicinity of the courses/bodies of water and wetlands. Urban river territories have been characterized as areas of increasing environmental conflict, given a greater frequency and intensity of extreme hydrometeorological events attributed to climate change and the dynamics achieved by neoliberal urbanism.The aim of this work is to identify and analyze the environmental conflicts and the geographical imaginaries in the fluvial territories of the Napostá Grande stream in Bahía Blanca, in order to rethink the risk management of flood disasters and the and the unequal and unfair distribution of the adverse environmental consequences generated. A qualitative methodological strategy is used, through the review of scientific, technical, journalistic, photographic and literary publications to analyze the meanings, knowledge and figurationsthat guide the interventions of different social actors in the face of these extreme events and their implications in the territorial public policies in the study area.The occurrence of extreme water events configures urban fluvial territories of growing inequality, injustice and uncertainty. Although the emergency in the face of disasters will have increasing notoriety on public policies, it is necessary that interventions on these issuescontain ideas and proposals from a wide range of social actors with interests in these territories, often conflicting.

Las inundaciones, anegamientos y bajantes, han adquirido una notoria visibilidad en las agendas públicas por las consecuencias ambientales adversas que generan para las comunidades que habitan en las proximidades de los cursos/cuerpos de agua y de humedales.Los territorios fluviales urbanos se han caracterizado por ser ámbitos de creciente conflictividad ambiental, dada una mayor frecuencia e intensidad de eventos hidrometeorológicos extremos atribuidos al cambio climático y la dinámica alcanzada por el urbanismo neoliberal. El objetivo de este trabajo es identificar y analizar los conflictos ambientales y los imaginarios geográficos en los territorios fluviales del arroyo Napostá Grande en Bahía Blanca, a fin de repensar la gestión de riesgos de desastres por inundaciones y la distribución desigual e injusta de las consecuencias ambientales adversas generadas por los eventos hidrometeorológicos extremos. Se recurre a una estrategia metodológica cualitativa, mediante la consulta de publicaciones científicas, técnicas, periodísticas, fotográficas y literarias para analizar las tramas de sentido, saberes y figuraciones que guían las intervenciones de distintos actores sociales frente a estos eventos extremos y sus implicancias en las políticas públicas territoriales en el área de estudio.La ocurrencia de eventos extremos del agua configura territorios fluviales urbanos de creciente desigualdad, injusticia e incertidumbre. Si bien la emergencia ante los desastres tendrá cada vez mayor notoriedad en las agendas públicas, es necesario que las políticas públicas sobre estas temáticas sean contenedoras de ideas y propuestas de un amplio abanico de actores sociales con intereses sobre esos territorios, muchas veces, contrapuestos.
