| Sumario: | Public space is being the object of interest of researchers and professionals from different disciplines due to the demand for urban spaces friendly to the population, which respond to the need to build cities of good living. In Guayaquil, Ecuador, at the end of the 1990s, the Malecon 2000 Project (PM2000) began and, from it, a device was introduced: Urban Regeneration that emerged as a need to revitalize the central area of the city, which was losing value, despite being the most important administrative management area, commercial and financial of Guayaquil. This policy on public space has been the subject of criticism by social and cultural groups against the security and control devices that are exercised by the local power and claim the free use and consumption of public space by citizens.
This doctoral thesis aims to address public space by analyzing the spatial but strongly linked to the historical, the social, the cultural and the urban. The double focus - urban studies and anthropology - will allow a critical look at the urban space of Guayaquil and the power disputes that will be revealed in it. The public space of Guayaquil will be studied from two aspects: that of local institutions and that of citizenship. From the institutionality, the discourses developed in books, documents and press writings that, around PM2000, have been generated to date will be analyzed. From the citizenship, the discourses will be studied from the information obtained from the application of the quantitative and qualitative research techniques used.
The results recorded at the end of this study should feed urban interventions in cities with riparian fronts, in those whose economy largely rests on the tertiary sector of production, in cities of high social heterogeneity, in which they are in search of Good Living, of a necessary democratization and active and responsible citizen participation. |
