Abstract
This text presents the monographic issue "The house as a nest". The purpose of this issue is to encourage reflection on the house from a sociological and anthropological perspective. The starting point for this reflection is Gaston Bachelard's now classic proposal to consider the house "as a nest" (La poétique de l'espace, 1957). A proposal, however, almost always quoted as an exergue, as an epigraph, but almost never followed in its consequences. Such a programme brings us closer to life as much as it distances us from the way urban sociology, urban planning and architecture consider the problem, closer to the concept of "housing" or “dwelling” (vivienda, logement) than to the poetics of the "house" (casa, maison). Such a project only finds here a set of approaches that invite us to continue exploring a subject that, thus posed, is evidently inexhaustible. The issue begins in the Fundamental section with Roberto DaMatta's classic text "Space. House, street and another world: the case of Brazil", translated into Spanish for the occasion. After this, the issue features contributions by Denis Merklen, Pablo Semán, Claudia Girola, Gabriel Gatti and Elixabete Imaz, Sebastián Aguiar, Natalia Montealegre and Marcelo Rossal, an Eva Sotomayor, to which are added —in the Critical Papers section— the work of Iñaki Robles Elong, and Maïwenn Raoul.
