LINDON, Alicia. La casa búnker y la deconstrucción de la ciudad. LiminaR [online]. 2006, vol.4, n.2, pp.18-35. ISSN 2007-8900.  https://doi.org/10.29043/liminar.v4i2.208.

This paper analyzes the city’s deconstruction in the context of the suburbanization process or metropolitan expansion. The deconstruction is not material, but related with the social and symbolic life developed in its spatial forms.

In a first part, are reviewed the ways of understanding the metropolitan expansion, through the “American” models of dispersed city and the more “Latin-American” one’s, as the one concerned with metropolitan fragmentation.

In the second part, a central aspect of the metropolitan expansion is analyzed: the enthronisation of the home understood as a resemantization of the home notion and also as a material transformation of itself. The third and last part shows the paradox: the enthronization of the home generated by the city’s expansion, is ending as a city’s deconstruction.
