autoconstrucción, construcción comunitaria, Karl Linn, John F.C. Turner, Urbanismo participativoResumen
Este artículo explora la influencia que han tenido los arquitectos Karl Linn y John Turner en el desarrollo comunitario y los asentamientos informales. Partiendo de la tradición norteamericana del barn raising, o construcción comunitaria de graneros, sus trayectorias ponen de relieve el poder de la participación comunitaria en los barrios marginados. Los proyectos Neighborhood Commons de Linn y las ideas de autoconstrucción de Turner desafiaron las políticas institucionales y han tenido una enorme repercusión en las prácticas urbanísticas colaborativas actuales de mejoramiento barrial y entornos urbanos inclusivos.
