Abstract
GATO, Maria Assunção. Consuming residential spaces beyond economic values. Sociologia [online]. 2015, n.tematico5, pp.67-92. ISSN 0872-3419.

Based on a comparative analysis between two residential areas located in Lisbon - Príncipe Real and Parque das Nações -this article aims to explore the consumption and the valuation of residential space as products socially produced and whose value goes beyond the economic dimension
Keywords : residential spaces; consumption; production of value.
