Includes bibliographical references (p. [190]-197) and index.

Shaping the colonial city -- Splendor and misery in the viceregal capital : the physical, material, and political environment of Bourbon Mexico City -- In sickness and health : disease, healing, and the urban population -- A basic necessity : water and the urban environment -- Restoring orderout of chaos : garbage collection in theory and practice --Mastery over the streets : drainage, street paving, and renovation of urban space -- Concluding thoughts.

Constructing Mexico City: Colonial Conflicts over Culture, Space, and Authority examines the spatial, material, and cultural dimensions of life in eighteenth-century Mexico City, through programs that colonial leaders created to renovate and reshape urban environments. In doing so, this studyreveals various points of conflict and discord over how various social groups defined and shared thepublic spaces in the city, and understood their place within a wider colonial system. Bailey Glasco, drawing on research from numerous archives in Mexico City, sheds new light on the critical roles that urban planning and renewal played in the social and cultural dynamics of the city, as well as how it anticipated early definitions of modern Mexican identity.
