Summary

Recent urban transformations in the Quebrada de Humahuaca, Argentina—a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2003—reveal profound shifts driven by economic crisis and tourism. The study identifies key morphological changes, including new urban expansions, discontinuous developments, and densification patterns, while assessing their relationship to broader socio-economic forces. By analyzing territorial 'windows' at multiple scales, researchers mapped these transformations, highlighting how global recognition and national tourism policies have reshaped local dynamics. This work provides a nuanced framework for understanding the interplay between heritage designation, economic pressures, and urban evolution in Argentina's arid landscapes.
