| description | The present article aims to understand the socio-environmental conflicts caused by mining extractivism in the city of Bogotá. For this purpose, three sections are proposed: the first deals with some conceptual and methodological understandings presented by the author on urban environmental history (UAH), which allows the problematization and complexification of socially constructed territories, setting up a counterpoint with some references of urban geography. The second section analyses the mining heritage from three historical periods of the UAH of Bogotá: 1) the colonial period and pottery; 2) the modernization of the city and the mining areas; 3) urban growth and the presence of mining-industrial parks (MIP), placing special emphasis on the MIP in the south of the city from the perspective of extractivism to proceed to analyze the economic dynamics behind mining and its environmental effects. The third section presents the conclusions. |

Para tal fin se proponen tres apartados: en el primero se abordan algunas comprensiones conceptuales y metodológicas que presenta el autor sobre la historia ambiental urbana (HAU), la cual permite problematizar y complejizar los territorios construidos socialmente, estableciendo un contrapunteo con algunos referentes de la geografía urbana. En el segundo se analiza la herencia minera a partir de tres periodos de la HAU de Bogotá: 1) periodo colonial y la alfarería; 2) la modernización de la ciudad y los chircales; y 3) el crecimiento urbano y la presencia de los parques minero-industriales (PMI), haciendo un énfasis especial en los PMI del sur de la ciudad desde la óptica del extractivismo para proceder a analizar las dinámicas económicas detrás de la minería y los efectos ambientales. En el tercer apartado se presentan las conclusiones y reflexiones finales. O presente artigo tem a finalidade de conhecer quais são os conflitos socioambientais gerados pelo extrativismo mineiro na cidade de Bogotá. Para o efeito, são propostos três parágrafos: no primeiro, são abordadas algumas compreensões conceptuais e metodológicas apresentadas pelo autor sobre a História Ambiental Urbana (HAU), a qual permite problematizar e se tornar complexo os territórios construídos socialmente, estabelecendo um contraponto com alguns referentes da geografia urbana. No segundo analisa-se a herança mineira a partir de três períodos da HAU de Bogotá: 1) período colonial e a olaria; 2) a modernização da cidade e as áreas de mineração; 3) crescimento urbano e a presença dos parques mineiro-industriais (PMI), dando um especial ênfase nos PMI do sul da cidade desde a óptica do extrativismo para proceder a analisar as dinâmicas econômicas por trás da mineração e os efeitos ambientais. No terceiro parágrafo apresentam-se as conclusões.
