Abstract
In the successful process of planning, design and implementation of cycling infrastructures in Seville, the intervention and participation of certain actors proved to be decisive. In order to identify and characterize the evolution, milestones, components, interests and other relevant aspects of this process of cultural production, various qualitative and ethnographic techniques have been used, especially the interview, the participant observation and the analysis of sources, using Bourdieu’s concept of field as a methodological axis according to Martín’s proposal. Through the historical analysis of this local social field of urban cycling —formed by technicians, politicians, institutions, firms and academics around a pre-existing core of activist kind— it can be stated that the specific knowledge held by its members, as well as their positions in different fields of influence, turned out to be decisive for such a proposal from municipal institutions to be well valued and embodied by broad social segments.
