The effects of private urbanism in wetlands of the Lujan river basin. Gran Buenos Aires
Keywords:
low basin, floodplain, gated communitiesAbstract
The floodplain of low Luján river basin - in the context of peripheral Greater Buenos Aires (AGBA) - has been abruptly transformed in recent decades. Where in recent years we found scattered urbanized areas alternated with orchards that adapted to these natural physical conditions; forest business; and especially, large extensions of vacant land (mostly under private ownership and without a defined productive use), it emerged from the sludge of these floodplain: gated communities, marinas, lakes, canals, corporate office complexes, luxury hotels, shopping malls, new access roads, among other "artefacts of globalization".
This work aims to "check" and call attention to the development phase of the globalization processes, in which the market economy has consolidated the progress of gated communities on landfills in flood plains, which finds no solution within the current development framework in the Argentina.
