It seeks to move beyond infrastructure-focused approaches to understand mobility as a phenomenon that reproduces power relations and social inequalities. The aim is to deal with a critical analysis of the way in which the spatial design of the National Northeast University Campus in Resistencia, Province of Chaco, reinforces mechanisms of social exclusion and discipline. Drawing on the theoretical contributions of Michel Foucault and Paola Jirón, the study examines how a campus layout primarily designed for vehicular circulation creates spatial hierarchies that marginalize pedestrians and people with reduced mobility. This configuration is understood as a form of symbolic violence through which certain urban actors become invisible. In line with Foucault’s concept of disciplinary space, the campus is seen as a control device that naturalizes inequality. Finally, such dynamic is linked to broader effects of the neoliberal model promoting both privatization of public space and reliance on cars, thereby deepening urban fragmentation.   Este estudio aborda la movilidad urbana en América Latina desde una perspectiva interdisciplinaria, anclada en las ciencias sociales, los estudios urbanos y la geografía crítica. Se propone ir más allá de los enfoques centrados en la infraestructura para entender la movilidad como un fenómeno que reproduce desigualdades y relaciones de poder. El objetivo es analizar críticamente cómo el diseño espacial del campus de la Universidad Nacional del Nordeste (UNNE), en Resistencia (Chaco), refuerza mecanismos de exclusión social y disciplinamiento. A partir de los aportes teóricos de Michel Foucault y Paola Jirón, se interpreta la organización del campus –prioritariamente orientada a la circulación vehicular– como una estructura que genera jerarquías espaciales, marginando a peatones y personas con movilidad reducida. Esta configuración se entiende como una forma de violencia simbólica, en la que ciertos cuerpos y prácticas urbanas son invisibilizados. En línea con Foucault, se considera que el espacio actúa como un dispositivo de control que normaliza la desigualdad. Finalmente, se relaciona esta dinámica con el avance del modelo neoliberal, que promueve la privatización del espacio público y la dependencia del automóvil, intensificando la fragmentación urbana.     Facultad de Arquitectura, Planeamiento y Diseño | Universidad Nacional de Rosario 2025-07-24 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf https://www.ayp.fapyd.unr.edu.ar/index.php/ayp/article/view/519 10.35305/23626097v12i22.519 A&P Continuidad; Vol. 12 Núm. 22 (2025): ESPACIO Y VIOLENCIA EN EL CONTEXTO DE EMERGENCIA Y CONSOLIDACIÓN DEL MODELO NEOLIBERAL.
