Este artículo expone las territorialidades conflictivas que se generan en el basural a cielo abierto del Partido de Luján y la forma en que estas tensiones condicionan la gestión integral de residuos sólidos urbanos [RSU], la resiliencia y la sostenibilidad local. Para ello, se propone examinar el negocio de los materiales reciclables y las luchas de poder entre los distintos actores sociales que conviven en el predio municipal.A partir de la observación directa y la revisión de documentos se busca evidenciar las particularidades que convierten al basural en un territorio en riesgo y en disputa. Mediante las entrevistas en profundidad a actores clave se busca conocer y comprender las dinámicas territorializadoras que se originan a partir de las formas en que se ejerce, se resiste y se disputa el manejo de la basura. A partir de lo estudiado, se evidencia que la población que se dedica a la recuperación de materiales reciclables vive en situación de injusticia social, vulnerabilidad ambiental e informalidad laboral. Esta situación de emergencia crónica demanda prioridad en la agenda pública desde una perspectiva que refuerce el componente social de la sostenibilidad. Los resultados demuestran que es prioritario resolver los conflictos preexistentes en el territorio vinculados a informalidad de la comercialización de los RSU para implementar una gestión integral inclusiva y asociada para el desarrollo sostenible local.

This article exposes the conflictive territorialities generated in the open-air dump in Luján city, and the way in which these tensions condition the integral management of urban solid waste [MSW], resilience and local sustainability.
