Tramas e dramas no urbano: o projeto renascer em Dourados-MS e o processo de reprodução socioespacial

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the process of reproduction occurred in the sociohousing Pora Star I, II and III and Star YVAT (Project Rebirth), built to accommodate 409 families removed from a slum area along the Good Water Creek (Dourados-MS ), because in the rainy season, these families suffered from the floods. The area was unfit to live because of pollution of the stream that receives part of the sewage of the city and because it is an area of valley bottom. In 2005 the families who lived on the banks of that stream started to be removed to an upper, west of the city, where new housing developments cited above. We look at how to set the process of reproduction of social relations in the new place, since, as this is an area built by the public (standard with a significant number of identical houses, one next to each other) no process construction of space-time, with a characteristic morphology imposed, not having the network of meanings that the previous location had. We have, therefore, we seek to further our understanding of the process of identification with the new location, since the relationship with the neighborhood and especially the relationship belonging / alienation and, given this perspective, the place will be taken as an analytic category . We have also sought to evaluate the mechanisms adopted by the population to rebuild some of the benchmarks of life lost by the removal, because the challenge of this population is to build a new location that meets their expectations and needs. Faced with these contradictions we conclude that the urban transformations imposed by the government modify the uses and meaning of space as the reproduction of life, redefining social relations.
