Resumo: In Latin America, neoliberalism, a cyclical economic growth, the region’s insertion in the world’s capitalist accumulation and the simultaneous social crisis have changed its socioeconomic structures. Its metropolises experience mutations driven by the dominant financialreal estate capital and territorial conflicts grow. Governments have abandoned their intervening and regulatory function, adopting the facilitator of private capital; those of the "turn to the left" have followed a similar course, without achieving the expected changes and causing popular disillusionment. This, together with the capital’s and the Right’s offensive, has caused the governments’ erosion. Urban research, dependent on imported theories, does not provide accurate explanations or effective alternative policies. We must generate theories appropriate to our particular social formations that respond to the uncertain urban future caused by the wild accumulation of capital.

En este contexto, sus metrópolis sufren grandes mutaciones impulsadas por el capital inmobiliario-financiero dominante y crecen los conflictos territoriales. Los gobiernos nacionales y locales abandonaron su función interventora y reguladora, adoptando la facilitadora de la acción del capital privado; aquellos del “giro a la izquierda” siguieron similar rumbo, sin lograr los cambios esperados, causando la desilusión popular, que, sumada a la ofensiva del capital y la derecha, están produciendo su caída o desgaste. Una parte importante de la investigación urbana en la región, dependiente de teorías importadas, no aporta explicaciones acertadas ni políticas alternativas eficaces. Debemos seguir generando teorías adecuadas a nuestras formaciones sociales particulares, que respondan al incierto futuro urbano causado por la acumulación salvaje de capital.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2018-12-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/2236-9996.2018-4302Cadernos Metrópole; Vol. 20 No. 43 (2018): as metrópoles no atual padrão de expansão do capitalismo; 649-672Cadernos Metrópole; Vol. 20 Núm. 43 (2018): as metrópoles no atual padrão de expansão do capitalismo; 649-672Cadernos Metrópole; Vol. 20 No. 43 (2018): as metrópoles no atual padrão de expansão do capitalismo; 649-672Cadernos Metrópole; v. 20 n. 43 (2018): as metrópoles no atual padrão de expansão do capitalismo; 649-6722236-99961517-2422reponame:Cadernos Metrópole (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPspahttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/2236-9996.2018-4302/27370Copyright (c) 2018 Cadernos Metrópole.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPradilla Cobos, Emilio2018-12-19T03:01:15Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/38485Revistahttps://revistas.pucsp.br/metropolePRIhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phpcadernosmetropole@outlook.com||cadernosmetropole@outlook.com2236-99961517-2422opendoar:2018-12-19T03:01:15Cadernos Metrópole (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false
