    • Abstract:
      The area of San Victorino has been one of the most important and significant urban scenarios in Bogota's (Colombia) history. Through many historical periods, it has acquired numerous forms and functions, which have given it its character and identity; however, due to its circumstance as a "border zone", as a "threshold area", as port and door to the old city and the Historic Downtown of the modern city, San Victorino is an urban environment marked by its crossroads and contrasts, reflected in its built area and social actors. This research takes as a point of departure an exploration in urban anthropology which seeks to delve deep into the sociocultural dynamics occurred in this area from a long term perspective, resulting from the conflicts generated by the exploitation of this urban space towards the end of the 20th century.
