These changing processes generate new relationships between space, power and identity, which are expressed through symbols and material elements that communicate ideas or values and contribute to shape and order the territory, the population and the investments through a socially legitimated discourse. From this point of view, the development of social housing programs realized during the last decade has put into evidence several types of discourse: discourse of order, produced by the State for places and activities; discourse of power, produced by the established power relationships; and the discourse of differentiation, given by its own urban quality. Thus, from the study of the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Region, we reflect on those city-building mechanisms that show a certain symbolic order of place differentiation on the territory.

En este artículo se analizan dos tipologías de vivienda que aparecen en Añelo desde la década de los setenta: la “casa cajón” y la “casa contenedor”. Para ello realizamos una revisión bibliográfica y documental, entrevistas en profundidad y relevamientos en el sitio, a partir de los cuales se desarrollaron análisis gráficos. A partir de dicho estudio, proponemos que ambas tipologías han evolucionado a lo largo de las últimas cuatro décadas, produciendo variantes de las mismas, que se vinculan a modos de habitar diametralmente distintos y que reproducen la fragmentación socioespacial de la ciudad en que se encuentran.
