摘要
The water crisis in Guatemala City's metropolitan area reflects the interaction of two dimensions of the deployment of power in low-income neighborhoods-the direct exercise of power over actors and spaces by elites or political centers and micropolitical operations. This interaction produces patterns of behavior that deepen socio-spatial segregation, social fragmentation, and the delimitation of horizons of political possibility among broad sectors of the urban population. La crisis del agua en el area metropolitana de la Ciudad de Guatemala refleja la interaccion de dos dimensiones a partir del despliegue del poder en barrios de bajos ingresos-esto es, el ejercicio directo del poder sobre actores y espacios por parte de elites o centros politicos y operaciones micropoliticas. Esta interaccion produce patrones de comportamiento que profundizan la desegregacion socio-espacial, la fragmentacion social y la delimitacion de horizontes de posibilidad politica entre amplios sectores de la poblacion urbana.
