Description
Summary:This article will provide analytical elements to reconstruct the actual social processes upon whose foundations the logic and transformations of the urban context of Quito have been built. To do this, using an expository structure, the historical transformation of urban issues in Quito will be presented. Similarly, the two main periods of urban development in the city will be characterized, as will the consolidation of the national state and the consolidation of the capitalist modernization, both based on the most salient features, taking as guidelines the definitions of urban crisis transition, the shape and territorial organization of territorial and urban policies, and of social sectors, among other factors.
