Abstract

Gated communities in Latin American cities have become the new normal. The streets bordered by fences, walls and the occasional gate, formed when two or more gated communities face each other, dominate the urban landscape today. In this Urban Studies article, taking Bogotá with its 3500 gated communities as a case study, CSS’ PhD candidate David Kostenwein creates a novel typology focusing on the gated community’s spatial dimension, not portraying it as an isolated island but as an integral part of the urban realm.
