O Processo de luta pela moradia em Campo Grande-MS: uma análise socioespacial da favela “Cidade de Deus II”

Abstract

The urban space is produced from different processes and agents. Thus, the border in the city is something very private and in the eyes of many, even appears to not exist. This question is closely linked to access to housing, which determines the place in town where one lives. The acquisition of housing, in turn, is subject to the purchasing power of each individual and / or family. The idea of development / growth of a city does not apply equally to all. Every individual has his or her value in capitalism according to the place they occupy in the city and this fact reflects in access to what has been produced socially. It is in the construction of slum areas that families seek to escape high rents, organizing themselves, resisting and pressing the government. Therefore, analysing the case of the city of Campo Grande, we seek to better understand the history and reality of the favela "Cidade de Deus", aiming to contribute to the understanding of the process of appropriation and use of urban space and its sociospatital unfolding.
