Summary

In this article we establish a comparative reflection between spaces within the historical centre and malls, paying particular attention to primary stimuli and socio spatial relationships that take place in both. The reduction of the contingency level in the malls boosts a feeling of safety and optimises purchases. However, this same circumstance does not affect sociability in the same way, that is why malls widen and complement the possibilities of consumption, but do not substantially transform the basic standards of social interaction which are characteristic of the local culture.
