Abstract

Las áreas centrales de las grandes metrópolis han perdido población y transformado sus actividades económicas como respuesta a la redistribución intrametropolitana de la población y los cambios en la demanda ocupacional. ¿Significa que los centros de las ciudades han perdido su centralidad? El concepto de centralidad puede ser abordado desde diferentes perspectivas, pero todas ellas enfatizan la concentración espacial de funciones urbanas y actividades económicas. En este documento se analiza la evolución de la demanda ocupacional en la Zona Metropolitana de la Ciudad de México entre 1980 y 2003, y en particular en su ciudad central. El periodo de estu­dio se inscribe en un contexto nacional y local de reestructuración económica, e interesa conocer el papel de la ciudad central en el crecimiento económico y en la generación de empleo metropolitano, así como en su transformación económica y ocupacional.AbstractDowntown areas of large metropolises have seen a decline in population and transformed their economic activities as a response to intra-metropolitan population redistribution and changes in occupational demand. Does this mean that city centers have lost their centrality? Although the concept of centrality can be dealt with from various perspectives, they all emphasize the spatial concentration of urban functions and economic activities. This document analyzes the evolution of occupational demand in the Mexico City Metropolitan Zone between 1980 and 2003, particularly in its downtown area. The period of study is framed within a national and local context of economic restructuring and focuses on the role of Mexico city’s downtown area in economic growth and the creation of metropolitan employment, as well as its economic and occupational transformation
