Abstract

In Bogotá the street sales have been historically seen as a public problem, which is materialized in the urban space and over the last years has become a strongly politicized issue. The debate has been mostly focused on the contradiction between the defense of the right to enjoy the public space and the protection of the right to work for thousands of citizens who make a livelihood from the street sales. In this context, the left-wing local administrations are proposing to develop a policy intended to create ´analogous spaces´ as a potential solution to this contradiction. This article outlines the context in which they came up with such proposal. It also describes the development of a set of hypothetical provisions calling for reflection on the spatial implications of hypothetically implementing such a policy and on the potentialities of a diagram analysis methodology.
