High Society and its High Walls
Keywords:
Ciudades cerradas, urbanizaciones privatizadas, segregación social, Francia.Abstract
The paper comments that while throughout the world the upper classes live apart and away from undesirable
promiscuities, it is also to be observed that every process of segregation is the while and unarguably one of
aggregating with ones like. The Real Estate Market and the part played by the Public Sector in the creation
and administering of housing estates limit the possibilities open to existing social groups though those at
the top ever have more say as to where they will abide. Social Power is thus here seen to entail the power
to choose room for oneself within that available for living in and thus it is said that those families with
major means, these primarily economic but not exclusively so, are ever those that get first choice as to
where to set up residence or, to put it in another way, to overcome those sociological obstacles that lead them
to prefer living with but we few rather than with the mass of the rest of them.
