  • The research donde by Reyes focuses its interest in the analysis of the effects that the everyday work practices of the pedlars at Historic Dowtown of México City has in their perception of space, and how through out this perception, the spaces affects the deffense strategies of the commercial use of the street, along with the shaping of identity among the pedlars themselves. In order to do so, the author makes, in first place, a characterization of the study subjects and their distribution in the central space of the City and, subsequently, she comments the way how the practices ant the space perceptions of the pedlars filtrates the politic-economical conditions of a macro-structural character, and moulds their strategies to preserve the commercial use of the streets. Reyes considers - just as José Luis Lezama does- that "the space, more than a passive entity where man creates his history and where the facts of life pass, is a maker of reality"
