Abstract

The article analyzes the solutions used to resolve the housing problem of Roma people since the mid-twentieth century in cities of northwestern Spain. Its interest lies in a common trajectory and in various situations and responses, which have not been successful. We use a geographical methodology based on the diachronic approach, the dialectical method between the quantitative and qualitative, the comparative, and the consideration of habitat as an expressive element of spatial relations in the landscape. Among its main results, this paper interprets a cross-sectional reading of urbanism and architecture in the so-called no-go zones incorporating the necessary nuances to avoid simplistic generalizations. These explain different rhythms and experiences in the same development towards typical housing, emphasizing the substantive weight of territorial variables, the regional context, and local factors beyond political decisions.
