Cooperativismo autogestionario de hábitat y asociativismo vecinal. El caso del Programa de Autogestión de la Vivienda de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires (Argentina).

Abstract

Since the 2000s, the City of Buenos Aires (Argentina) has implemented the Housing Self-Management Program (PAV), which promotes self-managed habitat production through the granting of collective loans to grassroots social organizations. The existing housing cooperative bank allows us to reflect on the self-managed forms used by the organizations and their impact on the neighborhood relationships built in the stage of living in the dwellings. From the deployment of a qualitative methodology, various primary sources of information produced in different research stages were recovered and analyzed from an approach that seeks to contribute to the current debates of the self-managed production of popular habitat. Among the results obtained, it was possible to verify that the forms assumed by the self-management process in the housing production stage have impacts on the base conditions for the construction of neighborhood associations typical of living.
