Valparaíso de Goiás surgiu de um desmembramento do município de Luziânia, em 1995. No Censo de 2010 do IBGE, Valparaíso de Goiás contava com 132.982 habitantes. Em 2015, a estimativa oficial indicou um expressivo crescimento populacional, quando o município atingiu a marca de 153.255 habitantes. O presente artigo analisa o processo de fragmentação regional promovido no curso da integração do território nacional centrada em Brasília. Como elemento central, destacamos o processo de segregação residencial, manifestado neste município goiano, a partir da impossibilidade dos migrantes fixarem residência em Brasília. Nesta perspectiva, investigamos o Programa Minha Casa, Minha Vida, com o objetivo de verificar suas repercussões no processo segregador que, desde a construção de Brasília, afeta drasticamente a vida dos que tiveram a vida polarizada pela nova capital da república.

Esse artigo parte de três experiências distintas de trabalho na cidade, em que verificamos imporem-se questões relativas tanto à violência quanto à segregação. A clínica desenvolvida com população em situação de rua nos apresenta tanto o desarranjo desses sujeitos com suas próprias formas de gozo, que frequentemente resvalam na problemática da violência, quanto a incoerência das respostas políticas do Estado, que, em nome da “garantia de direitos”, muitas vezes se aproxima de processos de segregação. Buscamos elucidar os efeitos produzidos pela presença da orientação da psicanálise. O que acontece quando um psicanalista toma sua posição ética infiltrando-se clandestinamente, como uma peste, nas brechas dos tecidos discursivos urbanos? Pretendemos lançar luz sobre a forma através da qual temos podido responder ao desafio da ética que orienta a psicanálise para dar testemunho sobre o sintoma de nosso tempo e como fazer uso dele no caso a caso e na vida de uma cidade.

Este artigo tem como objetivo entrelaçar a história dos portos de Buenos Aires à própria construção da Argentina como nação, inserindo-se na mundialização capitalista. A História Urbano-Portuária porteña revela mais do que, como e aonde era efetuado o processo de carga/descarga, pode demonstrar como o Imperialismo Capitalista motivou a Segunda Revolução Industrial para superar a Grande Depressão no centro do sistema, alargando as fronteiras do capital. O engenheiro Huergo e o empresário Madero aparecem como grandes agentes nesse processo, mas outras forças foram motoras da expansão quantitativa da produção, circulação, financiamento, população, etc. e da transformação qualitativa da operação portuária em Buenos Aires.

Enquanto espaço onde se apresentam teias de relações sociais, políticas, econômicas, ambientais, etc., a cidade concentra diversos aspectos que viabilizam a aprendizagem geográfica. Ou seja, na cidade pode-se constatar elementos que permitem ao professor de Geografia mediar a compreensão dos processos que dão origem às tramas relacionais em sociedade e, consequentemente, levar o aluno a construir o senso de cidadania. Este artigo objetiva compreender como a cidade, do ponto de vista da Geografia, permite pensar e construir a cidadania, durante o processo de formação do aluno, enquanto sujeito social. Para tal, faz-se uma revisão bibliográfica, transitando por entre referenciais que compõe um estado do conhecimento sobre a temática, abrindo espaço para um debate acerca da pertinência de tratar a cidade em sala de aula, como espaço que em si próprio contém inúmeros diálogos passíveis de serem retratados por professores e alunos em busca do aprender Geografia.

O cenário da educação brasileira tem caminhado para a adesão cada vez maior do uso do livro didático nas escolas. Nesse intuito, o presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar em que medida as fotografias contidas nos livros didáticos contribuem para a construção do pensamento sobre ensino de cidade. O alcance desse objetivo se deveu à observação das fotografias e legendas dos livros que pertencem às coleções didáticas mais adotadas pelo Plano Nacional do Livro Didático (PNLD) de 2012, no Brasil. Pode-se constatar que há cidades que aparecem mais vezes, enquanto outras não são representadas nas fotografias, de modo que pode haver um comprometimento da construção do pensamento, especialmente porque muitas cidades presentes nos livros didáticos não fazem parte das vivências cotidianas de muitos jovens que cursam o ensino médio, no Brasil.

O presente artigo analisa a cidade de Canindé-CE a partir das experiências cotidianas de seus citadinos, o que deu origem a duas perspectivas distintas, porém complementares acerca da referida cidade: a coexistência de duas cidades ‒ a cidade habitual e a cidade do romeiro ‒ condicionando a existência da cidade de Canindé-CE, cada uma com suas respectivas características, porém interrelacionadas. Ou seja, essas duas cidades proporcionam no tempo e no espaço a manutenção da cidade santuário de Canindé-CE, de suas atividades e de seu comércio. Como referencial teórico, utilizou-se da dissertação de mestrado intitulada "Canindé é quando dé: trabalho e recompensa" de autoria de Lima (2016), considerando ainda outras leituras do arcabouço da Geografia Cultural, especialmente da coleção "Geografia Cultural" de organização de Zeny Rosendahl e Roberto Lobato Correa. Valeu-se, portanto, da reflexão e problematização desta dissertação à produção deste artigo, sobretudo do conteúdo relacionado ao tema proposto. A coexistência de ambas cidades é necessária à manutenção das atividades religiosas na cidade santuário de Canindé-CE. Tais cidades estão interrelacionadas e coabitam o imaginário popular. São cidades frutos das experiências construídas por cada grupo de indivíduos (moradores e romeiros), dentro de suas respectivas atividades e função social.

Considerando certa escassez de teorias comunicacionais atentas ao comunicar espontâneo do cotidiano, o trabalho destina-se à reflexão sobre o conceito de psicogeografia com tal propósito. O termo psicogeografia foi usado pela Internacional Situacionista para designar os estudos do grupo sobre as influências que atingem a relação entre o indivíduo e o ambiente geográfico. Propõe-se uma articulação entre o viés prático/empírico dos situacionistas e teorias de geógrafos como Augustin Berque, Milton Santos e Henry Lefebvre, para os quais a relação da humanidade com o seu meio é, sobretudo, uma relação comunicativa.

Addresses different practices of robbery in the streets of Rio de Janeiro, accounting for the spatiality, circulation and regulations of this activity conducted by the police and local drug traffic. Based on ethnographical researches, we describe the risks faced by robbers that circulate throughout the city to rob and the technical repertoires adopted in order to minimize them, establishing an analytical distinction according to the means of transportation used: the act of robbing by car/motorcycle and the act of robbing by bus. Therefore, we consider the territoriality of robberies in an urban context of violence and socio-spatial segregation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The urban socio-spatial fragmentation researches are acquiring relevance as new urban patterns are appearing, increased from a set of economic changes and their many consequences. The city is experiencing new society's structures, as segregated areas, showing the process that split up its structures, bringing new frameworks, redefined by selective areas that denies inclusion, defining unequal access to urban perimeter, pointing to distinction in the rights to the city. Considering the importance of these issues and complexity of Brazilian urban network, it's essential to analyze in which cities this events are occurring. This article purposes identify socio-spatial fragmentation tendencies in Ourinhos (SP) a medium-sized city that plays an important role for its region, but isn't central, connecting cities into regional urban network as a middle-sized city. The methodology is bibliography and documental surveys, field work and observation to collect data, defining urban socio-spatial patterns, as mapping out where urban facilities, enterprises, institutions and gated communities are situated, as evidences for this socio-spatial unequal nature. The findings demonstrate an arrange of considerations and data that shows changing aspects as: the urban structure has recently changed, the citizen's residential areas are changing, revealing new patterns, rising up tendencies as new centers into the region and selective areas, evidencing features of non-inclusive practices.

The social unrest that unfolded from October 2019 on saw, among its most visible expressions, the occupation of public spaces like streets, avenues and squares. The "attack" on the monuments that some associated with a kind of rebellion against the history of Chile was also extensively recorded. These events lead us along the paths of history, memory, remembrance and oblivion, represented in monuments, official symbols, the names of streets, squares and parks around the city, and also, along interdisciplinary paths to address this complexity using diverse methodologies and sources. This article seeks to explain what happened in Temuco, the capital of the Araucanía Region, during the last few months of 2019. For this purpose, a research approach is proposed using a long-term perspective that makes it possible to find the elements that started giving a meaning to the urban space, to then explore what occurred in a short time, between October and November, in the logic of the urban space resignification process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Romantic and modernist Brazilian literature tried to tackle the issue of our nationality as a means of self-recognition, a search for national identity. With the rise of post-modernism and especially of cultural studies, the question of national identity and of the representation of the nation is back again; historians, social scientists and literary and visual arts critics have been discussing the theme and we, therefore, see analysis of novels, short stories, poems, paintings, installations, movies and TV series, among others, which deal with how these media try to represent the nation - or if it is still possible to speak in a totalizing way about narratives of the nation and of national identity. Nonetheless, this matter does not seem so compelling in theatre studies. Although there are plays which attempt to narrate a space and its society, whether it be the nation or the city - the latter sometimes representative of an idea of nation -, the debate on what this idea of nation and national identity are is, in theatre studies, limited. Thus, this article aims at analyzing how the nation was imagined and the understanding of national identity in the play BR3, signed by Bernardo Carvalho and staged by the company Teatro da Vertigem.

The objective of this article is to unravel the notion of coreopolitics proposed by the researcher André Lepecki, amplified from a discussion between the boundaries of dance and performance, highlighting the body as a producer of aesthetic and political discourses. This approach comes from a cartography of recent works from the contemporary scene of the city, cut from editions of the edict of Fomento à Dança de São Paulo, which has existed since 2006, and has been fomenting different forms of production and creation in dance. extrapolating stages and cultural equipment, appropriating the public space to create "manifestos". Three figures of approach of the city are presented to bring the body of dance closer to the concept of coreopolitics: the flaneur, the cartographer and the nomad. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this article was to understand the organizational resistance practices expressed by the families that occupied Conjunto Atenas and were later removed to Escola Delfim Moreira, both located in the city of Maringá-PR. Semi-structured interviews were carried out with eight families and the data were analyzed through content analysis. It is concluded that organizational resistance practices were expressed by the families to remain in the occupation and in the time they remained in the school in which they were removed and were identified in meetings, movements and manifestations. Despite the precarious conditions that these families lived in, they fought and achieved results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents the dynamics of a medium-sized city, Pelotas, located in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. It aims to problematize the analysis of migratory flows, which impact the morphology of the city, resulting from state interventions with private initiative. To highlight this reality, data from the research linked to the City Conflict Observatory of the Graduate Program in Social Policy and Human Rights of the Catholic University of Pelotas will be presented. The contributions of the authors Henri Lefebvre, David Harvey and Raquel Rolnik determined the critical perspective of this study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

To think about Brazilian cities is to think about a context of inequalities that is aggravated by regions. However, in the 2000s Brazilian economic growth allowed the development of the economically disadvantaged regions of the country, in the case of a northeastern region. And a city in the state of Ceará stands out, Sobral. In this article, we aim to analyze the culture and its resonances from the modifications in the urban space of Sobral and how these elements interfere with citizens' lives. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Women and Public Space in Bogotá, Colombia: 'A Field of Battles, of Risk and of Fear' presents some of the results of an investigation aiming to determine in which way the women of Bogotá use urban public spaces. It is based on a fundamental premise: urban regions are not a place of neutrality but rather involve unequal relations between men and women. One of the most significant contributions of this paper is the approach to the scenarios through an intense ethnography. In the Colombian case, this is the first investigation developed on the relationship between women and public space through the realization of an important fieldwork. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the construction of a theoretical framework that makes it possible to address the relationship between the city and region, it is pertinent to analyze whether the theory and methodology, that stands as current orthodoxy, has proved appropriate for the study of the development of regions, or if urban and regional trajectories should be addressed incorporating missing elements that allow us to visualize their dynamics. In this sense, we consider that to pretend to recognize the city, decontextualized of its insertion in specific regions and territories represents an incomplete abstraction, which not only fragments the analysis of the urban but also, the processes of reproduction of the space as a whole. The article propose to critically review the relationship between the city and region in the foundations of the predominant theories in the literature, that constitute the mainstream of urban and regional thinking since the 1980s, and in alternative visions that highlight the heterogeneity of the trajectories of the territories, primarily referring to the contributions of Latin American authors.

From the perspective of classifying the pixação --a brazilian tag graffiti-- as an environmental crime, the article contrasts this practice with the historical processes of exclusionary urbanization and attacks on the environment established in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. It is shown, for example, that in spite of the fact that the city has rectified and ravaged its rivers and that almost a thousand people a year die in their transit along them, the pixação continues to be considered the city's main environmental problem. Thus, based on the discussions on biopower and necropolitics, the pixação is presented as a possibility of life experience that is shaped within the landscape of a city whose operation consists of segregating and deciding who can live and who must die or be brutalized.

This article derives from my participation in the II Congress of Childhood Studies: Politicizations and Aesthetics, held in September 2019, at UERJ/Maracanã. My speech entitled Childhoods, Culture and Intergenerational Relations in everyday life, was delivered in the conference "The ethnic-racial issue and the generational issue in childhood" having at its core extreme burning issues in Childhood Studies: both ethnicracial and generational issues, arguing how these intersecting points (Collins, 2017) have effects on the daily life of Brazilian children, especially children from the popular classes who live in the outskirts of the big cities, such as the slums and urban borders of the state of Rio de Janeiro. In this pre-text, I chose to speak of this Other, named the child from the popular classes, the one who lives in the outskirts, in slums and popular areas. Those who, despite being infants deprived of speech, dare to speak among themselves and are spoken of by us, teachers and researchers of childhood. Considering our proposal of establishing conversation as a device for an encounter (Deleuze, 1998), I tried to speak of this Other, using my notes from the day of the conference, and the voices of authors with whom I dialogue in my studies, researches and daily work in different territories of the city (Tavares, 2019), understanding the contemporary city as a place of encounters, both good and bad. Above all, the city is a place of intergenerational meetings where the co-existence is possible. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Cities have been conceived as one of the main loci for promoting changes in development patterns, and building solutions that can address the complexity of contemporary public problems. In this context, the study of social innovation ecosystems (SIE) and their effects on cities is a relevant theme, considering the socio-environmental crisis diversity and extent of the urban problems experienced. The research seeks to understand to what extent the SIE responds to problems experienced in the public arenas of the city. It proposes a pragmatist-inspired theoreticalmethodological approach to cartography and analysis of SIE that is being applied in the city of Florianópolis. Th rough the co-construction of a collaborative digital platform, the research observes actors, their interactions and practices, to understand "whether" and "how" this network favors "public inquiry" or democratic experimentation and/or promotes more sustainable development dynamics in the city.

The Chilean Social Uprising of October 2019, through its multiple manifestations, has led to transformations in the city, as its architecture has been used as communicational canvases where both the spontaneous temporary facilities, as well as those designed, have allowed having new urban readings. This communication modality shows a porous, active, dynamic society, where longings and hopes need to be addressed and heard. Thus, the urban body is tattooed, expressing the needs of an invisible and unheeded society: architecture, is dressed for the occasion, losing its initial meaning and becoming a means of uncensored citizen communication. From the communicational side of the facilities, we will review three temporary modalities that intervene in the city, redefining it: The urban tattoo as a typology inherent to the Social Uprising coming from street art; the Performances and the human body as a communication tool symbolically arranged in the public space and, finally, the Urban Facilities as the redefinition of a building or public space in the light of an intervention that breaks its original mold. The spirit of change, of renewal, has taken over the city: the urban body enters the maelstrom of permanent transformation, following the dynamic and spontaneous rhythm printed by the citizen's will.

This essay theoretically reviews the different meanings and implications of Walter Benjamin's phrase "lost in the city". To explain and investigate the different senses, a relationship is established between the city and certain categories that make theoretical exploration possible: poetic to inhabit, existence in rupture and a dialectical transcendence of sense, notions from which it is possible to construct a fundamental nexus. The in-depth review of Benjamin's phrase is linked to the critique of capitalist modernity from a conception of the world à rebours and a historical-dialectic view proper to the thinker of the arcades of Paris.

This paper presents the results of a descriptive cross-sectional study in which closed questionnaires were supplied to a population of 44 women participants of Workshop No.43, "Women and Habitat", of the XXXIII National Meeting of Women (Argentina), held on July 13th-15th at Chubut, that aimed to identify 1) the predominant conceptualization of street sexual harassment and its correlation with the definitions established both in current laws and in provincial bills; 2) the formal responses required from the State; and 3) the measures to be adopted in the face of acts of sexual street harassment in relation to the victimizer. The sampling was non-probability of the casual type, therefore it will lack representativeness. Participants were given a questionnaire consisting of three demographic questions (age, province and city of origin, and gender identity) and five closed questions that were aimed at evaluating 1) the definition of the predominant street sexual harassment; 2) the consideration degree of the phenomenon as a security problem; 3) the existence of a requirement for State intervention in the matter; 4) the type of measures that are demanded from the State, should its intervention be considered necessary; and 5) the type of sanction that should be imposed on the perpetrators if it is considered as a contravention of the law or as a criminal act that requires a punitive response from the State.

Studies on the production of urban space and city life have expanded in recent decades. This article is part of this trend. Here we investigate the relationships between urban life, credit and finance and their connections with the impoverishment of urban experience. We argue that the process of urbanization, as presented in the contemporary world, can be understood from its articulations with financialization and indebtedness. A new urban condition, in its objective and subjective aspects, has been taking shape, mediated by consumption, credit and debt, increasingly present in everyday life and space production. This new urban condition has taken shape in recent decades, being influenced by the dynamics of finance and debt in the Brazilian context. In conclusion, we highlight the dialectical relations between economic and social processes linked to financialization and indebtedness, on one hand, and a deepening of socio-spatial inequalities that reinforced the processes of segregation and socio-spatial fragmentation in cities.

This article aims to discuss and reflect about some results of a research which main objective was to know and analyse the symbolic field of the city of Porto and its representations through the students of the Faculty of Arts and Humanities of the University of Porto. By choosing a convenience sample, an online questionnaire survey was applied resulting in a set of 108 valid answers. In order to know the mental images of the students, 5 mental maps were collected. The results make it possible to know and deconstruct the city by the student's eyes through a reading of their mental organization they do from it and the elements that they identify as guiding in the space.

The aim of this paper is to discuss the inseparable transversality of certain factors that shape the madperson's profile today. In this sense, we first consider the city and the urbanization processes led by the modern capitalist system as the socio-spatial framework in which misery and madness emerged en masse as permanent phenomena. In periphery countries, such as Brazil, which were colonized by the world capitalist system based on the slavery of the African workforce, madness persisted throughout the ages as a disease of the black and poor. At present, when the Brazilian urbanization rate approaches 90% and coincides with the structural crisis of the system, we observe that blacks are mostly concentrated in the dense peripheries of cities, with the worst indicators of housing, employment, income, education, and mental health.

El estudio de la ciudad moderna, en la Sociología Clásica, ha sido un punto de inflexión para comprender la transición de la comunidad tradicional a la sociedad moderna. Particularmente, Max Weber y Georg Simmel aportaron marcos comprensivos sobre los cambios de una racionalidad tradicional hacia una racionalidad orientada a fines, así como también la transformación de las formas de socialización en las grandes ciudades. La ciudad representa entonces, un diagnóstico de la modernidad relevante en la construcción de la Sociología. Sin embargo, es necesario incluir la participación de Marianne Schnitger en este diagnóstico y debate tanto con Simmel y Weber. Si bien ella no escribió directamente sobre la ciudad, no se debe soslayar su aportación al tema de la distinción entre lo público y privado, las emociones y sentimientos y la dimensión ética entre la calle y la casa. Marianne tuvo como escenario a Berlín, y desde ahí discutirá la subjetividad de la mujer y su relación con lo masculino, la ética y las emociones. En este texto analizo los argumentos convergentes y divergentes que sobre la ciudad tuvieron tanto Weber, Simmel y Schnitger a partir de conceptos similares que habrán de contribuir a la teoría sociológica clásica.
