Mexico City’s Subaltern Spaces as the FIFA World Cup Arrives
In:
The City as the Southern Question: Alternative Histories of Urbanisation After Gramsci.
Routledge, London, pp. 73-88.
Résumé
This chapter examines, from a Gramscian perspective, the ways of inhabiting a subaltern space in the south of Mexico City, within a specific context: the hosting of the FIFA World Cup 2026. The neighbourhood of Pedregal de Santa Ursula Coapa—a subaltern space—has had to develop a complex relationship with the Azteca Stadium, ever since the stadium was imposed as a representation of capitalist hegemony, later neoliberal and global. In this regard, analysing the scales of capitalist hegemony has been crucial to understanding the depth of how subaltern spaces are constituted, as well as the actors and elements that shape this condition—for instance, the State and violence. To inhabit subaltern spaces, therefore, entails considering how people’s bodies suffer and resist under such hegemony and its scales; yet also how they construct a different future from subalternity.
