Summary
The Historic Centre of Morelia, inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has undergone significant urban interventions that have boosted its cultural legacy and tourism development. These transformations, driven by neoliberal public policies, have led to the commercialization of public spaces while enhancing the site's value. The study, employing Troitiño Vinuesa’s (1992) methodological framework, analyzes how post-heritage designation interventions have shaped Morelia’s urban dynamics, revealing a complex interplay between heritage preservation and economic interests.
