Notes

1. As Castells and Hall (1994) showed, in the informational economy, production and management base their productivity on technological change and the capability to generate and process information and knowledge.

2. Informationalism refers to a technological paradigm that replaces and subsumes the previous paradigm of industrialism (Castells 1996).

3. As Sennett (2000) indicates, there is a process of “concentration without centralization.”

4. The development of the informal economy, which affects the physical aspect of these cities and has a significant impact on the socioeconomic structure, persists in the major urban centers of Latin America. Garza (2006) points out that in Mexico City, it is estimated that between 25% and 50% of the active economic population belongs to the informal sector.
