Resumen
Nieto and Nivón start the essay talking about La Habana and other cities in Latin-America where modernity has collapsed, and in regard to this fact, culture specialists must put in the right place options that give identity as well as the traditional ones which are in opposition. Subsequently, they make a critical revision of the analysis of culture in Latin-American modernity based on the works of Néstor García Canclini, Roberto Da Matta and Norbert Lechner who share the appreciation of subjective daily spaces and dimensions of culture as well as the conviction that culture can only be theoretically reconstructed by putting different levels of social, institutional, communicative and historical action at stake. Lastly, they analyze Mexico city starting from the outskirts in order to explain the metropolis itself
