| Sumario: | This article addresses the role of the Inter-American Center for Housing and Planning (CINVA) and the United States policies associated with the Alliance for Progress (APP) in the construction of Ciudad Kennedy Housing Complex in Bogotá (1961- 1963). Because of its significance as well as the juncture in which it was erected, it has become a model example for considering not only the transformation of architects’ practices and responsibilities but also the field of planning and housing. It has also led to the clarification of the debates about housing policies in Latin America ranging from centralized and direct construction supported by the government to others supported by communal action, i.e., with the participation of users in self-construction processes. The goal of this article is to reflect on the different views provided by the “experts” involved taking into account the political conditions and pressures of the United States within the Cold War context. |
