Fragmentation of a precarization scale. References to conventional urban structuring

Developing countries play the role of supplying the contemporary economy. The territorial and social conditions of the place refer to the scale fragmentation process and to the increase in the poor population because there is a tendency of unrestricted use of land in order to convert it into an urban and productive place. In the Mexican case, the loss of land used for agricultural purposes implies a reduction in basic food production for the population, particularly corn. Furthermore, the substitution of forests and woodlands is associated with the overexploitation of aquifers in the country’s most populated region. In addition, the records of low housing conditions indicate that a little more than 60% of the population are in this situation, which does not justify the adoption of such strategies.
