An approach to the process of urbanization in Baja California Sur during the porfirian period: the case of San Jose del Cabo

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to explain the process of urbanization in
Baja California Sur during the porfirian period, specificaly in San Jose del
Cabo, A town, which is located at the southern part of the peninsula. We
resumed the idea that urban is a space that is characterized by the existence
of a regular merchant trade, political and administrative function and
relatively differentiated social organization. The next is divided into four
sections where you can see that the urbanization process involved a legal
order as the basis of the organization of space and the provision of public
services.
