Tiem y distiempo de la modernidade urbana. Escenas modernas y virtuales en las ciudades latinoamericanas
Based on studies previously undertaken in Mexico City and São Paulo city that investigate social and cultural urbanization processes, this article sets out to review the changes in spatial perception felt by the inhabitants of these two large Latin-American metropolises, the consequence of the social process that follows modernization and urban expansion. The city unfolds in a set of images that go from real to virtual, an urban scenario that structures its dwellers in different ways. This new form of urban culture places us at the threshold of postmodernism, where the territory is organized in a manner different from the traditional one (stain, chunk – Magnani), and acquires a new social meaning, with cultural forms of traditional and community character (ethnic), but located within urban spaces conceived as intrinsic to urban modernity and eventually representing globalization, posing as a set of virtual scenes.
