Abstract
En esta tesis se trata de operacionalizar el concepto del Derecho a al Ciudad aplicándolo al caso de Madrid, con la finalidad de estrechar relaciones entre dos conceptos que son fundamentales: procesos de vulnerabilidad urbana y participación ciudadana. El objetivo último del concepto es la mejora de las condiciones de vida de los ciudadanos que residen en diferentes áreas urbanas que se sitúan en una posición de desventaja con respecto al resto de la ciudad. Dentro del desarrollo lógico de la tesis, la PARTE I se inicia con el análisis de las teorías lefebvrianas del Derecho a la Ciudad y su posteriori actualización a través del análisis de la obra de los principales autores que han trabajado el tema y de los principales textos jurídicos que han sido aprobados en las últimas décadas. Para ello se parte del análisis del concepto acuñado por Lefebvre y autores contemporáneos, estableciendo así el guion de la investigación en tres puntos destacados provenientes del análisis teórico: CENTRALIDAD: en el sentido de entender que la ciudad está conformada por diferentes áreas urbanas en situación de desigualdad y desfavorecimiento. Es el punto de partida que justifica la acción por parte de los colectivos más vulnerables para tratar de encontrar el reequilibrio en la ciudad. AGENCIA: entendiendo que son los movimientos sociales los principales valedores de reclamar su derecho a la ciudad. DERECHO A LA OBRA: definido como el modo en que estos movimientos sociales crean y llevan a cabo estrategias también diferenciadas para poder mejorar sus condiciones de vida en la ciudad a través de la inclusión de sus propuestas en la gestión de la ciudad...
The focus of this thesis is to operationalize the concept of the Right to the City by applying it to the case of Madrid, with the aim of strengthening relations between two concepts that are fundamental: processes of urban vulnerability and citizen participation. The ultimate goal of the concept is to improve the living conditions of citizens living in different urban areas that are at a disadvantage compared to the rest of the city. Within the logical development of this thesis, Part I begins with the analysis of Lefebvre’s theories of the Right to the City and its subsequent update through the analysis of the work of the main authors who have worked on this topic and the main legal texts that have been approved in recent decades. To do so, we begin with the analysis of the concept coined by Lefebvre and contemporary authors, thus establishing the script of research in three highlighted areas from the theoretical analysis: CENTRALITY: in the sense of understanding that the city is made up of different urban areas that are unequal and disadvantaged. It is the starting point that justifies the action taken by the most vulnerable groups to try to find a balance in the city. AGENCY: understanding that the social movements are the leading proponents that claim their right to the city. RIGHT TO APPROPIATION: defined as how these social movements create and perform strategies that are differentiated in order to improve their living conditions in the city through the inclusion of their proposals in city management...
