Sumario: In this paper it is made a contrast between the current official discourse about urban control in the city of Bogotá and a critical view of it, from some historical and regulatory evidence. It takes as methodological references sociology of crime control and the critical discourse analysis; the latter allows to discover that the urban control is a kind of centralized state control that has been exercised from Colonial times to the present based on surveillance, discipline and punishment, which operates in the best interests of the dominant economic groups and excludes other types of control. As a result, there has been a pattern of segmented city with a high degree of social and spatial segregation, by creating territorial barriers to the enjoyment of the city and satisfaction of the needs and fundamental rights in conditions of equality.
