Her current research work is the second phase of her research published in 2011 as the book Buenos Aires: El Poder de la Anticipaci贸n. She studies the anticipations of the urban future in Buenos Aires Metropolitan Region (BAMR) 1990-2015, and analyses and compares two fields, the disciplinary and extra-disciplinary, i.e. plans produced within the professional discipline of urban planning and policy, and those ideas and proposals produced by local journalists, community organizations and general public, published in Blogs, Websites and YouTube. There are still no other studies in Argentina that analyze all the plans which have been produced in the BAMR in the last two decades, and this is the only study which compares and contrasts disciplinary plans with "plebeian" anticipations as expressed in the digital sphere.
