Description
Summary:This work reviews the factors that participate in the expansion of irregular settlements in the city of Nuevo Laredo. The central hypothesis is that popular urbanization in Nuevo Laredo has gone through three stages. The first one is characterized by the state and municipal governments' authoritarian responses to a settlement fostered by parm, an oppositional political party. The second stage is characterized by the autonomy granted to the ejidatarios (owners of ejidos) to sell part of their lands. In the third stage, speculation or acquisition of more than one property becomes a motive for the appearance of the more recent irregular settlements.
