The private cemeteries in the metropolitan area of Buenos Aires: architecture and landscape as a key of social differentiation

This article is part of a research line on the changing cultural practices around death. In particular, we analyze the private cemeteries of Buenos Aires, their architectural and landscape trends, and the ideas about death that appear explicitly or implicitly in the ways in which they are designed, built and sold. We try to highlight the importance of the spatial analysis, since architecture and landscape have become important in relation to the differentiation of the supply of burial places, which in turn is part of broader processes of social and cultural differentiation.Documento incorporado en 2018 en el marco del "Programa de becas de experiencia laboral" de la Biblioteca Profesor Guillermo Obiols para estudiantes de Bibliotecología, a partir de un procedimiento técnico de captura de datos desarrollado por el personal del IdIHCS.Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias de la Educació
