Segregación y pobreza multidimensional en el sistema urbano colombiano

Abstract

The article aims to identify the patterns of distribution of the multidimensional poverty in the main urban agglomerations of the Colombian city system, and to estimate the magnitude of residential segregation between poor and non-poor population at the same scale. Based on a conceptual reflection on poverty and segregation, a comparative study is proposed to establish how this phenomenon occurs in urban agglomerations of the Colombian city system. For this, multiple methods of spatial and statistical analysis are used, allowing the construction of indices at different scales that lead to the conclusion that segregation presents particularities in geographic patterns in each urban agglomeration.
