| description | This study explores the narratives of the Reconquista’s river basin in the greater Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area, in particular the Morón River - the main polluter. The aim is to explore how to design counteractive narratives in regards to the current development. The method is partly derived from the Travelling Transect, a method developed by Lisa Diedrich, Gini Lee and Ellen Braae since 2013. The method is adjusted to fit the specific conditions concerning the river Reconquista.
The complex challenges operate at a global scale which also affect the Reconquista and therefore needs to be addressed. This is done by exploring space, or the simultaneity of ongoing stories-so-far. Trajectories on site are identified and studied as challenges and opportunities.
The operating narratives lead to an unsustainable development which generates informal settlements and pollution. The New Urban Agenda offers a solution in the form of a value codex that points out the direction for the new narratives. Emscher park as a reference case provides tools on how to conceive a transformation. The key findings are juxtaposed into new narratives that challenge the existing reality.
The thesis contributes to the ongoing discussion regarding the river’s future development by constructing new narratives. The result is the designed narratives, enabling a new future. |

Este estudio explora la narrativa de la cuenca de la Reconquista en el Gran Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires, en particular el río Morón, el principal contaminador. El objetivo es explorar cómo diseñar narrativas contrarias en relación con el desarrollo actual. El método se deriva en parte de Traveling Transect, un método desarrollado por Ellen Braae, Lisa Diedrich y Gini Lee (2014). El método se ajusta para adaptarse a las condiciones específicas del río Reconquista. Los complejos desafíos operan a escala global, lo que también afecta a la Reconquista y, por lo tanto, debe ser abordado. Esto se hace explorando el espacio, o la simultaneidad de las historias en curso, hasta el momento. Las trayectorias en el sitio se identifican y se estudian como desafíos y oportunidades. Las narrativas operativas conducen a un desarrollo insostenible que genera asentamientos informales y contaminación. La Nueva Agenda Urbana ofrece una solución en forma de un código de valor que señala la dirección de las nuevas narrativas. El parque Emscher como caso de referencia proporciona herramientas sobre cómo concebir una transformación. Los hallazgos clave se yuxtaponen a nuevas narrativas que desafían la realidad existente. La tesis contribuye a la discusión en curso sobre el desarrollo futuro del río mediante la construcción de nuevas narrativas. El resultado son las narrativas diseñadas, lo que permite un nuevo futuro. 2019-03-29 Second cycle, A2E NonPeerReviewed application/pdf sv https://stud.epsilon.slu.se/14360/17/axelblom_c_wistrom_s_190724.pdf Axelblom, Caroline and Wiström, Sophie, 2019.
