Abstract

The article reports on Argentina's wealth gap as of October 2013, noting the living conditions in the country's suburbs around the city of Buenos Aires which include gated communities and informal settlements, and also discusses the proposed Law of Just Access to Habitat which will impose a tax on new gated communities and fund social housing. Topics include the proposed law's constitutionality, the government's power to regulate land, and taxation of vacant lots.
