| Sumario: | This paper seeks to describe the evolution of Airbnb in Mexico City, taking as a reference its spatial distribution patterns and the characteristics of the hosts based on the information displayed on the platform, to delineate its consolidation and professionalization and to attenuate that it is only a collaborative economy model. For this, the work has been divided into five sections. The first refers to a literature review of studies on the collaborative economy and Airbnb with emphasis on what has been produced in Latin America. The next, on the conceptual framework to which this paper is anchored, which takes as reference the hypercommercialization processes in urban centers in relation to global phenomena of neoliberalism. The methodological section describes the sources of information, their characteristics and the spatial analysis of the data, as well as qualitative methods to complement the interpretation; the fourth section is for the report of the case study and; finally, the conclusions, where it is expressed why it is possible to speak of a professionalization of Airbnb, as well as a hypothesis about a submarket of short-stay rental that is not consigned in the data collected on the platform. |
