The city contain relationships and productives, social, political, cultural and others processes that translate into socio-materiality. This dynamic is filled with contradictions, continuities and discontinuities that allow us to interpret it in various analytical biases. In this sense, we based on trying to understand the production process and centrality redefine on perspective of the articulation between localities, defined from relation between the different actors producers of urban life. These elements make up the web that weaves the content of urbanization and the development of social relations that are materialized in the city where location, flow, work and productive processes arise as a condition and means, among other determinants, which make up the redefinition of the city and the urban way of life.
