Responsibility and dignity in the housing

Abstract

The present text responds to the question, What criteria and concepts should we, we would
like, and above all, we could be able to explain, understand and transform in order to design,
and above all, to execute a decent housing based public policy effectively and efficiently In
criteria of social responsibility? When it tries to do so, it leaves open other questions, such as:
In addition to the well - known Vitruvian triadic, firmitas - utilitas - venustas, applicable to collective community facilities, what would be the contemporary basis for “other” manifestations or
architectural creations, such as Housing, public space and even the landscape as a cultural
product of distinction? The author assumes a socio-critical epistemological stance, based on a
holistic research methodology; Its main findings are to discover the architectural delusion of form
by form and how to use diatopic hermeneutics as an antidote to it. Therefore, its conclusions
are presented as non-agreements, as a starting point between several authors, the author and
the reader and their relevance is based on the possibility of restoring resilience and dignity as
the new criteria to define sustainability, Both in the form and behavior of human beings, and of
course, in their “dignified” housing in a context of social responsibility.
