description The article undertakes the issue of linear public spaces in Latin-American cities, understanding them as crossing points that involve leisure and amusement, casual and frivolous encounters where collective routines become the stage of city life and —as it also happens in the theater— grow to be locations to see and to be seen, spaces to identify with all social groups, places to assert the sense of community. The authoress begins by examining the words that designate urban linear public spaces such as street, sidewalk, boulevard, promenade, avenue, esplanade and seafront, and ends by analyzing recently built linear public spaces in cities like Sao Paulo, San Juan, Guayaquil, Monterrey and Nuevo Leon, in order to provide a comparative frame to make evident the general preoccupation for all things public in Latin America.

El artículo analiza el tema de los espacios públicos lineales en las ciudades latinoamericanas. Lugares de paso que connotan la idea de diversión, de encuentro casual y frívolo, donde se escenifica la vida colectiva y, como en el teatro, uno ve y es visto por los demás; por ello sirven como lugar de reconocimiento de los distintos grupos sociales y como afirmación de la comunidad. La autora empieza examinando las palabras que designan espacios urbanos públicos lineales, como: calle, calzada, alameda, paseo, avenida, camellón y malecón; y luego, con el fin de proporcionar un marco comparativo que muestre cómo existe una preocupación generalizada en América Latina sobre los temas de espacio público, analiza espacios lineales recientes en ciudades latinoamericanas como Sao Paulo, San Juan de Puerto Rico, Guayaquil, Monterrey y Nuevo León. 2013-06-14 2024-10-10T02:29:17Z 2024-10-10T02:29:17Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501 http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85 https://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/nodo/article/view/81 https://repositorio.uan.edu.co/handle/123456789/10549 spa https://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/nodo/article/view/81/63 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2 application/pdf UNIVERSIDAD ANTONIO NARIÑO REVISTA NODO; Vol. 7 Núm. 14 (2013); 9 - 20 2346-092X 1909-3888
