TELLEZ ARANA, Luis; QUINTERO CASTELLANOS, Carlos Emigdio  and  RODRIGUEZ HERNANDEZ, Edgar Ricardo. Responses from Guadalajara's Municipal Government to Decrease Covid-19 Negative Consequences. Intersticios sociales [online]. 2024, n.27, pp.314-350.  Epub May 03, 2024. ISSN 2007-4964.  https://doi.org/10.55555/is.27.518.

In the midst of uncertainty about the pandemic caused by the Covid-19, international and national academic organizations and communities opened a discussion to understand what happened with the responses offered by national governments. However, they paid little attention to the fact that the municipal governments reacted simultaneously, casting doubt on how they reacted, what responses they offered and under what conditions they did so. Thus, the first objective is to identify the main contextual potentialities and limitations in which the pandemic approached Mexican municipal governments. The second is to map the type, behavior, intensity and temporality of the responses of an urban government to the negative consequences of Covid-19, from the case of the Government of Guadalajara, in order to reveal its reaction patterns and possible implications. To map the responses, it has been made a data base that systematized all the communications and publications in the Guadalajara Government’s Web pages, then a taxonomy was made to classify that information and was ordered in five domains, and finally, the responses were chronologically organized accordingly to the three waves of contagium of Covid-19.

Keywords : Covid-19; Mexican municipal government; urban governments; policy responses; Government of Guadalajara.
