Abstract
Description
Una de las manifestaciones del crecimiento urbano en América Latina son los asentamientos urbanos en la periferia, el área metropolitana de Cochabamba (Bolivia) no es ajena a ello. Dada la precariedad urbana inherente a estos asentamientos, es necesario identificar características clave de la vivienda, factores socioeconómicos, demográficos y espaciales que definen y expresan mayores desigualdades. Se analizan las condiciones materiales de vida de la población y su relación con el nivel de desarrollo socioeconómico y la estructura demográfica, y cómo se expresa esto en una localización diferenciada y precaria en la periferia urbana. Para identificar las características, tendencias y patrones espaciales en el área metropolitana de Cochabamba, se realizó un análisis comparativo de los dos últimos censos de población y vivienda de Bolivia, 1992 y 2001.
One of the manifestations of urban growth in Latin America is the urban periphery, and the metropolitan area of Cochabamba (Bolivia) is not exception. Given the “urban”, inherent to those settlements, is necessary to identify key characteristics in housing as well as socioeconomic, demographic and spatial factors which contribute to precariousness and to increase inequalities. Therefore, our objective is to know the population’s material living conditions, and its relation with the socioeconomic development level and demographic structure, and how it is expressed in diverse locations and in precariousness at the urban periphery. To identify the characteristics, trends and spatial patterns in the metropolitan area of Cochabamba we analyzed comparatively information from the last two population and housing censuses in Bolivia: 1992 and 2001.
