“…The condition of spatial vulnerability is linked to the physical characteristics of the inhabited built environment since its poor conditions such as a low quality materials, a nonflexible housing layouts, a overcrowding, etc., will not allow a satisfactory development of everyday life [24]. Spatial characteristics can affect both physical and mental health, as well as well-being.…”

There is extensive scientific evidence showing that the characteristics of the urban and residential environment directly affect people’s quality of life and health. In this framework, numerous building renovation policies have been developed in Europe, mainly focused on improving energy efficiency. However, we are dealing with a multifactorial and multicausal phenomenon of a complex system where competent institutions need quantitative diagnosis mechanisms that consider this holistic vision when making decisions and prioritizing interventions. Regarding this, the present research develops the potential of the multi-criteria methodology in a first proposal, which integrates social, energy, environmental and spatial aspects linked to the relationship between housing and the effects on the health of its inhabitants. It is a multidimensional method based on systematized and exportable vulnerability indices, which applies indicators that have been calculated using cadastral data and a typomorphological characterization of the residential stock. The analysis of the results through geostatistical techniques of autocorrelation and clustering applied to the case study of Donostia-San Sebastián shows that the proposed methodology is effective in achieving the objectives set. The associated GIS tool has proved to be agile and replicable.

“…When the concept of vulnerability emerged in the literature, it allowed scholars to move beyond the concept of poverty, which was proved to be insufficient to explain social differences in a changing world [8]. Castel [9], followed by many others [10,11], was the first to explain how vulnerability was related to a certain state of being 'at risk', overcoming previous theorisations that centred around the binary relationship of social integration-disintegration. The end of a salary-centred society enabled the possibility of people becoming actors at risk: of losing jobs, of becoming disaffiliated or of losing their social networks.…”

This article aims to understand the probable links between social capital and social infrastructure. The inclusion of these two dimensions into urban analysis may help to better understand the nature and characteristics of the relationships between the built environment and the level of organisation of the residents, and whether these have an impact on the vulnerability of the territories. Through use of statistical techniques (visual grouping and cluster analysis, among others), this article seeks to construct a comprehensive measure of social capital, as well as a comprehensive index of social infrastructure. These two in combination show, as the main results, that the characteristics of the built environment may promote higher levels of social interaction, also leading to higher levels of civic engagement and participation. However, the results also suggest that this relationship may be bidirectional. Finally, the mapping of the two indices applied in the city of Barcelona is presented and these results are compared with a previously constructed index of vulnerability for the same territory, allowing an overall better understanding of Barcelona’s socio-urban behaviour.

“…Según la propuesta de Durand y Metzger (2009), usualmente la gestión de residuos no es relevante para las políticas urbanas, lo que genera vulnerabilidades en la población y el territorio ya que los residuos son "un riesgo para la sociedad urbana, en términos no solo sanitarios y ambientales, sino también económicos y sociales" (p.624-625). De esta forma, los riesgos que generan los residuos inciden negativamente en las condiciones que requieren los habitantes para tener una vida urbana satisfactoria, afectan las condiciones de habitabilidad y se acompañan por carencias en cobertura de servicios e infraestructura, por lo que se habla de una vulnerabilidad espacial (Ochoa y Guzmán, 2020).…”

<p>Este artículo estudia los procesos que llevaron a Gibraltar, un predio ubicado al sur occidente due Bogotá, a convertirse entre 1979 y 1984 en un lugar de disposición final de residuos y en un escenario de conflictos territoriales. Es una investigación tiene como base la perspectiva de Melé sobre las transacciones territoriales y la propuesta de Durand y Metzger sobre la vulnerabilidad espacial; además, recurre a fuentes diversas entre las que se encuentran documentos de archivo, entrevistas, hemerografía y bibliografía secundaria. A partir del corpus documental y del aparataje teórico, el artículo identifica las necesidades y decisiones que ocasionaron la destinación de Gibraltar como lugar de disposición de residuos en medio del proceso de urbanización hacía el occidente de Bogotá y en el marco de cambios en las técnicas de recolección y disposición de residuos. El artículo también indaga en cómo la destinación de Gibraltar como un lugar de disposición de residuos permitió el desarrollo de vulnerabilidades espaciales que generaron conflictos de proximidad en cuyo marco los actores sociales construyeron diversas formas de organización para hacer valer sus intereses. De esta manera, el artículo propone que el problema de los desechos en el predio Gibraltar está relacionado con la expansión desordenada de la ciudad y con la falta de capacidad administrativa a nivel municipal, lo que permitió la ubicación de urbanizaciones formales e informales cerca al sitio de disposición de residuos y generó vulnerabilidades espaciales que dieron paso a conflictos territoriales de proximidad y a transacciones en torno a la coexistencia de actividades urbanas.<br /><br /></p>
