Abstract

This article proposes a scheme to analyze capitalist urbanization in general. We start from understanding urbanization as a process through which the population occupies a space that has been transformed to support its agglomerated settlement. Qualified or adequate space that results from productive processes whose products are the components of urbanization. It is for this reason that the latter depends on the predominance, in each place and time, of certain modalities of production. The article proposes to analyse urbanization in capitalism and in dependent Latin American capitalism and its strong heterogeneity of production – consumption modalities that are combined and articulated.
