- Abstract
The city of El Alto (Bolivia) is generally described as a homogeneous belt of poverty and population of aymara origin. But here I want to discuss about this image with empirical evidence that shows the social and spatial differentiation and the unequal (and combined) urban development of the city. For this, the relevance of this research aimed at analyzing the urban appropriation of aymara migrants in two neighborhoods of the city of El Alto, located in different areas of the same and with different degrees of urban consolidation (the neighborhood of the uptown zone El Porvenir I and the downtown area 16 de Julio), in the period of post-neoliberal globalization 2010-2013. In the uptown, unlike the downtown and older quarter, setting rururban territories where migrants maintain a thread of continuity with their communities. To carry out this study, I conducted semistructured in- depth interviews to migrant residents and a survey was applied to members of 100 households in total. Also, I did non- participant observation of the activities of daily life.
