Abstract
In Mexico, the privatization of otherwise public urban spaces carries a deep history of social inequality, and its normalization today must be understood in the context of current violence, corruption and high crime rates within the country. At the same time, I argue that gated communities both reflect and maintain current structural inequalities that have been put into place since Mexico’s colonial past. This thesis contains the experiences of residents and workers of three gated communities in the South of Mexico City. By including the workers' perspective's it attempts to counter the lack of representation this perspective has had in past research.
