Review of the Book Vivienda y Migración. Aportes desde la Geografía Crítica

Abstract

This text reviews the book Vivienda y Migración. Aportes desde la Geografía Crítica published by Ediciones Monosílabo and Facultad de Filosofía y Letras UNAM, coordinated by Luis Alberto Salinas and Ana Melisa Pardo Both are researchers from the Institute of Geography of the National Autonomous University of Mexico. Throughout eight chapters, authors of different nationalities and disciplinary backgrounds discuss beyond sociodemographic approaches different forms of dispossession that emerge around the problem of access to housing and the population movements. We propose to make two notes. The first one is on the perspective of the critical geographic and its contributions to the field of geography and urbanism, and the second is to discuss the ways in which we can think about the concept of space from the arguments the authors present in this book.
