RODRIGUEZ RODRIGUEZ, Jesús. Construction of Two Post-Normal Concepts for the Metropolitan Management of Valle de México: Uncertainty and Conflict. Estud. demogr. urbanos [online]. 2006, vol.21, n.2, pp.297-330.  Epub Jan 22, 2020. ISSN 2448-6515.  https://doi.org/10.24201/edu.v21i2.1251.

This text constructs the concepts of uncertainty and metropolitan conflict for the Metropolitan Zone of the Valley of Mexico, using the techniques of in-depth interviews, participant observation and the analysis of official documents (all of which are an integral part of constructivist methodology,) in order to typify this phenomenon of conurbation as post-normal and thereby determine its current possibilities of management.

Keywords : post-normal science; Metropolitan Zone of the Valley of Mexico (MZVM); uncertainty; conflict.
