Abstract
The objective of this article is to analyze the case of the homeless and the people at risk of homelessness in the city of Buenos Aires between 2017 and 2019, by examining the causes of entry to this situation, time, life strategies and the networks that they implement to live on the street. The case of people who live in hotels but who rely on soup kitchens to eat will also be examined, since their income is not enough to cover their total needs. This situation will be analyzed in the framework of the notion of right to the city and the scope of this concept will be examined in the framework of neoliberal urban policies implemented in the city of Buenos Aires from the 1990s onwards.
