In the seventies and eighties, in Latin America, the Marxist tradition developed a rich conceptualization in regards to the popular practices of habitat production, which revolved around the concept of multiple production forms. Presented in this text is an updated reflection composed particularly of aspects of real estate circulation and land access methods. From this perspective recent developments in "illegal" or "informal" methods of urbanization and their recently formulated policies are analyzed in an evaluation which attempts to debate the implicit or explicit duality of other approaches.
