Abstract(s)
This study examines the development of gated enclaves in the Lisbon Metropolitan Area (AML) in order to evaluate the relationships between socio-urban segregation and spatial confguration in contemporary urbanities. It assumes that social segregation is an inherent characteristic of cities since ancient times, proposes that this characteristic has a geometric confguration, both social and spatial, and endeavours to determine how this confguration functions at the local and metropolitan level.
As such, the project applies a three-pronged multiparadigm approach into building a spatial theory of socio-urban fragmentation through theoretical research into the immaterial condition of urban segregationist thought, a historical survey on the development of gated enclaves, and a morphological and confgurational analysis into socio-spatial division through cartographic and aerial surveys of gated enclaves in the AML from the XII to XXI centuries.
It posits that we are currently witnessing the beginning of a New Age of Confnement, requiring a thorough understanding of liminal spaces, and in so doing, lay the foundations for a confgurational theory of auto-poietic socio-urban segregation. Through a series of fndings on the synergetic behaviour of enclaves within the metropolitan network, we establish a correlation between culs-de-sac, and a complex yet contradictory relation between choice and integration in local and global networks of gated enclaves, paving the way for a reinterpretation of the origins and growth of urban agglomerations and concluding with the suggested hypothesis of self-segregation frst, integration later.
