    Appropriation of public space : combining the Wayfinder methodology and tactical urbanism in a park in the city of Latacunga
    (Universidad del Valle, 2022-07-01) Cisneros Corrales, Edison Patricio
    The paper exposes an intervention proposal for an urban park in the city of Latacunga, Cotopaxi (Ecuador). The potential intervention seeks to promote the appropriation of public space where people and future users act as protagonists of the change, by contributing ideas and initiatives to create a place that considers their opinions, needs and suggestions. In order to achieve this, the proposal used the Wayfinder methodology, an avant-garde approach that assesses, plans, and acts in social-ecological systems to achieve sustainable, safe and fair transformations. Likewise, it proposes tactical urbanism activities as practical strategies to accomplish the project’s objective. The paper concludes that an intervention of this type is viable and capable of generating outstanding results regarding urban public space appropriation. Being viable, it is established that it can be executed in the short term, in accordance with the guidelines presented in the text.

    Globalización urbana y ciudades globales. Las transformaciones y heterogeneidades espaciales de las ciudades contemporáneas.
    (2015-04-14) Zapata Salcedo, Jorge
    La globalización es una matriz de fenómenos que han transformado drásticamente los espacios urbanos de manera diferenciada, y con mecanismos económicos diversos. Las tecnologías de comunicación generan efectos de compresión del espacio-tiempo, los que moldean las ideas sobre el mundo urbano. Adicionalmente, los territorios urbanos y sus áreas de influencia se dislocan, produciendo singularidades territoriales locales; y se conectan en un sistema global de ciudades: las ciudades emergentes. Lo anterior genera relaciones de centros-periferias y nuevos espacios, derivados de las relaciones jerárquicas de los sistemas urbanos globales. No obstante, es necesario revisar nuevas posibilidades de conceptualización de los espacios urbanos globales, aspectos que aborda este trabajo, para permitir discusiones de las ontologías de las heterogeneidades de lo urbano y la ciudad global. Abstract: Globalization is an array of phenomena that have dramatically transformed urban spaces differently and with different economic mechanisms. Communication technologies generate compression effects of space-time, shaping ideas about the urban world. Additionally, urban areas and their areas of influence are dislocated, producing local territorial singularities which are connected in a global system of cities: the emerging cities. This generates centerperiphery relations and new spaces related to the hierarchical relationships of global urban systems. However, it is necessary to review new possibilities conceptualization of global urban spaces. These issues are addressed by this work to allow discussions of ontologies heterogeneities of urban and global city.
