About this product

Product Information

How did elites perceive and imagine their city in the late nineteenth century? Looking at Buenos Aires and the discussions that accompanied a series of epidemics in the 1860s and 1870s, Antonio Carbone reconstructs debates on urban space and how they led to a partial transformation of the city. He focuses in particular on three urban hotspots: the slaughterhouses, the tenements inhabited by migrants, and the park in the Palermo neighborhood. Book jacket.

Reviews
An admirably concise and insightful study. . . Carbone bills his book as a materially grounded intellectual history of the liberal elites who regained control over the port city after the defeat of Argentina's authoritarian ruler Juan Manuel de Rosas in 1852.
