Suburbanización Y Cambio Social en La Metrópoli Madrileña

Abstract

El artículo se centra en Madrid y su reciente desarrollo suburbano. El proceso de suburbanización se ha extendido más allá del Área Metropolitana, alcanzado buena parte de la región. El texto analiza la relación entre la suburbanización y las nuevas pautas de desigualdad socio-espacial. La segregación se ha visto reforzada no solo por los precios de la vivienda, sino también por las largas distancias y las oportunidades de movilidad.PALABRAS CLAVE: SUBURBANIZACIÓN * CAMBIO SOCIAL * SEGREGACIÓN * ESPACIO * VIVIENDA ABSTRACT The article focuses on Madrid and its recent suburban development. The suburbs occupy not only most of the Madrid Metropolitan Area, but also a significant part of the Madrid Region. We analyze the relation between suburbanism and new patterns of socio-spatial inequality. Segregation has been reinforced not only by housing prices, but also by long distances and mobility chances.

Are Floods Becoming a More Expensive Hazard? A Damages Review of the Southeastern Spanish Coast (1996–2016)

“…Additionally, two other paradigmatic examples related to the characteristics of the area reinforce its selection. Firstly, Spanish coastal municipalities recorded a major increase in exposure to flood hazards [14,20,21,41], and in the number of inhabitants [9,13,[15][16][17]25].…”

“…Additionally, two other paradigmatic examples related to the characteristics of the area reinforce its selection. Firstly, Spanish coastal municipalities recorded a major increase in exposure to flood hazards [14,20,21,41], and in the number of inhabitants [9,13,[15][16][17]25]. From a demographic point of view, the study area is home to approximately 3.3 million inhabitants, i.e., 7% of the Spanish population [28].…”

“…Additionally, there are some particular circumstances of the study area that deserve special comment. Firstly, according to total amount and percentage variation of compensation paid, dwellings experienced the main asset damages in both provinces; however, in Alicante flood damages exceed (64%) those of Murcia due to greater urban development rates [13,15,19,49], including the total (141 vs. 45) and coastal (20 vs. 8) municipalities. Civil engineering was the fifth-highest asset damaged in the province of Murcia (four times more than in Alicante province), a situation that could be connected with (i) the traditional inclusion of floodable areas as road infrastructure [40,48,67] and ii) the numerous historical structural measures against floods present in the area, which started in the Roman era [76].…”

“…Unfortunately, these human-made risk scenarios reach worrying rates in coastal areas [10,11], such as along the Mediterranean basin [2,12] and, especially, on the Spanish coast [9,13,14]. Within the Spanish territory, this dramatic exposure scenario was related to the neoliberal real estate development registered since the 1980s [15,16], which raised urban growth rates above any other historical period [17]. A paradigmatic example of this excessive real estate development is reflected in the records achieved in the year 2006, when the property rates in Spain were greater than in Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Italy and the United Kingdom combined [18].…”

Transformando los modelos de crecimiento y cohesión: cambios en la gobernanza de Barcelona y Madrid

“…Este proceso forma parte del despliegue de las nuevas estructuras globales del neoliberalismo que ha afectado intensamente a los espacios locales, convirtiendo progresivamente las ciudades en mercancías que compiten entre sí. Para alcanzar dicho objetivo se adoptaron nuevas políticas urbanas que, con el paso del tiempo, han generado cambios profundos en las estructuras socioespaciales urbanas de numerosas ciudades, crecientemente desiguales y segmentadas (Díaz Orueta, 2013). o 131 | enero 2018 | pp.…”
