| 總結: | Recovering a methodological strategy focused on conducting ethnographic interviews with neighborhood leaders from upper-middle- and upper-class neighborhoods in the Miguel Hidalgo Municipality (Mexico City), this article proposes to explore some of the senses of belonging and representations that these actors have constructed regarding the characteristics that public space should possess and the desirable profile of those who can —or cannot— legitimately transit, occupy, and inhabit it. We start from two hypotheses: 1) the aspirations, needs, and fears of the interviewees mobilize an "imagined community" based on a class habitus; 2) the ideological matrices of their notions of citizen participation are akin to liberal-democratic discourse, but at the same time display moral limits.
