BRINGING POWER RELATIONS BACK INTO THE UNDERSTANDING OF URBAN DEVELOPMENT: THE CONTESTED SPACES OF EL BRONX AND CAZUCÁ, SOACHA

Viernes 26 de Octubre de 2018, 2pm-3pm. Sala 10C, Edificio Gabriel Giraldo, 1er piso

A cargo de: Paco Pos and Casper te Riele

Paco Pos has studied BSc Economics and Business with Honours at the University of Amsterdam. The way that economics is taught in the Netherlands (and most of the world) with an emphasis on mathematics has made it go astray from other social sciences and as a result astray from society itself. Therefore, Paco is currently a student of the 2-year rMSc International Development Studies at the University of Amsterdam, which is a more interdisciplinary and self-critical program.

Casper te Riele is a Dutch student of the 2-year rMSc International Development Studies at the University of Amsterdam. He has a BSc in Sociology with Honours at the University of Amsterdam. During his Bachelor's he has focused primarily on urban struggle, globalization and resistance. Currently, as part of his Master's program, Casper is conducting field research in Bogotá and Soacha, until January 15, before returning to the Netherlands to write his dissertation.

Abstract

Central to the seminar will be the question: How and by whom is social urban change realized, and who has the power to do so? Different actors hold conflicting views of how urban development ought to be done, thereby resulting in contested urban spaces. As is the case in the redevelopment of El Bronx and the broader processes of gentrification in Los Mártires. As well as, the development of informal settlements on the periphery of Bogotá, as seen in Cazucá. Although these cases exhibit distinct mechanisms of change, taken together they explain a narrative of citywide development and social segregation.
