Resumen: A través del estudio de diversas fuentes documentales (padrones municipales, fuentes judiciales, noticias periodísticas, relatos literarios y periodísticos, planos de viviendas, etc.) se pretende analizar el proceso de segregación social del espacio madrileño y la construcción de un imaginario social en torno al Ensanche Sur de Madrid, encarnación de los bajos fondos de la ciudad. La comparación entre la realidad social y la representación de esa realidad permite ilustrar una parte del complejo proceso de modernización de la sociedad urbana madrileña antes del estallido de la guerra civil.
Palabras clave: Madrid, Ensanche Sur, segregación, bajos fondos, delitos.
