To achieve this, thirteen fields were defined in which the different manifestations are registered. However, most of these fields are distant from the cultural processes that are woven in the city. Based on this statement, the study of the market place is considered from a historical perspective that allows recognizing its transformations and permanence, to move on to an ethnographic analysis of the Plaza de Mercado de las Flores, located in the Kennedy neighborhood in Bogota, from which new categories of analysis emerge: knowing, transmitting, coexisting, recognizing, and valuing, which allow the market to be interpreted as a complex cultural framework.  a0123-4471
