villa miseria 35
It is called 'misery village' in Argentina to a type of neighborhood with informal and precarious building, a settlement with neighbors of very low socioeconomic resources, usually on usurped or illegally occupied land. The name is an irony for the luxurious European villas, where the most wealthy people live or summer; but as no one remembers today, the terms villa and villero (inhabitant of the villa) for the Argentine are always derogatory.
