    Este libro ofrece una renovada revisión teórica y empírica sobre las implicancias de los procesos de metropolización desde una perspectiva de análisis multiescalar, considerando incluso contextos regionales y transnacionales, a través de una selección de trabajos de autores que, desde sus líneas de investigación, han aportado a los estudios urbanos en las últimas décadas, especialmente en Latinoamérica. Desde aproximaciones diversas, cada uno de los trabajos que contiene esta publicación intenta entregar nuevos conocimientos y enfoques para comprender la compleja realidad del fenómeno metropolitano como parte de la urbanización planetaria que en origen pronosticó Henri Lefebvre a comienzos de los años ’70 y, más recientemente, a comienzos de esta década ha sido una de las hipótesis más influyentes desde los trabajos de Neil Brenner.

    Urban Vitality Conditions and Neighborhood Satisfaction in a Latin American City: The Case of Santiago de Chile
    (ASCE-AMER SOC CIVIL ENGINEERS, 2023) Madrid-Solorza, Stephanie; Marquet, Oriol; Fuentes Arce, Luis Alejandro; Miralles-Guasch, Carme; CEDEUS (Chile)
    Urban vitality and neighborhood satisfaction are areas of great interest within the field of urban studies, as a measure of the attractiveness of a city and as an evaluation that residents make of their living environments. Using survey and geospatial data from the Longitudinal Social Study of Chile (2019) and the JANE Index (2021), this study performs regression analysis to examine the relationship between urban vitality and neighborhood satisfaction. Through a set of variables that evaluate the neighborhood such as safety, connectivity, green and recreational areas, cleanliness and beauty, proximity to the main activity, and proximity to commercial areas, we analyze the relationship with six conditions for urban vitality. These conditions are features objectively measured from the built environment, which provide information about concentration of people and buildings, diversity in land use, contact opportunity provided by the urban fabric, presence of old buildings, accessibility to the public transport, and the distance to large infrastructures that act as border vacuums for people. The results show that most conditions for urban vitality are significant predictors of neighborhood satisfaction. Not all components of urban vitality, however, are positively associated with higher neighborhood satisfaction, as attributes such as concentration and satisfaction with green and recreational areas in the neighborhood are in fact negatively correlated. Conclusions show the importance of including subjective factors in projects meant to transform the built environment in search of increased vitality.
