Interrelación entre identidad de barrio y la identidad personal. Un estudio a través de la memoria

Abstract

The cities, the peoples, the neighbourhoods in which we live are much more than the space where our daily life develops. They have an identity that we, as inhabitants and active subjects have contributed to create with our action and our observation. This contribution is reciprocal, our identity is also configured by the neighbourhood as a space for relationships. It endows us with a common history with our contemporaries, and with those who preceded us. Memory, and the verbal history of those who live in these places is an indispensable instrument to understand these processes, and that does not only refer to the past, it can also discourse on the future.
