The dynamics of globalisation have concentrated poverty in certain areas of the urban context, generating a challenge that must be addressed from all disciplines and approaches. However, traditional historiographical currents have not been able to account for the dynamics of the most disadvantaged areas of our cities. Biographical methods, although they have been applied to represent excluded groups, have rarely contemplated urban issues related to them. In this sense, the present research is based on the process of historical reconstruction of the Guadalquivir neighbourhood in Cordoba, Spain through the life stories of its residents, analysing the biographical discourse of 28 key people. The analysis of the life stories from a territorial perspective shows how the technique allows us to generate processes of collective construction of knowledge, as well as to develop emancipatory practices capable of re-signifying the territories and transforming the most vulnerable environments.
