Abstract
The production of a tourist space on the Bahía de Banderas, on Mexico’s Pacific coast, has required converting the land, the river, and the bay into private property, dispossessing the citizenry of its access to them and interfering with the right of free transit. The production of this unequal and exclusive space demonstrates the absence of democracy in spatial production and the defenselessness of the citizenry in the face of the neoliberal project.
La producción del espacio turístico de Bahía de Banderas, en la costa del Pacífico mexicano, require convertir en propiedad privada el suelo, el río y las playas, lo cual implicó despojar a la ciudadanía de su acceso al río, al mar y al derecho del libre tránsito. Tal producción de un espacio desigual y de exclusión social evidencia el alto déficit de democracia en la producción espacial, así como la indefensión de la ciudadanía que conlleva el neoliberalismo.
