Elementos das desigualdades raciais nas políticas públicas habitacionais brasileiras: estudo da centralidade urbana à luz da execução do programa federal de habitação popular Minha Casa,Minha Vida na cidade do Rio de Janeiro no período de 2010 a 2017

Abstract

Public social housing policies have been formulated over time in order to attempt to increasingly serve the most vulnerable urban populations affected by diverse systems of inequality. However, some permanencies in the implementation of these policies indicate that they continue to reproduce certain excluding stigmas. The main objective investigated in this research focuses on the difficulties that the black population has in accessing the centers of urban cities. Through deductive reasoning, it will study how social housing programs interfere with the dynamics of racial integration in popular public spaces. For this, the Minha Casa, Minha Vida program was selected as the subject for quantitative analysis, specifically its enterprises which concern the black population, the so-called ‘faixa um’. By observing the location of these residencies in the city of Rio de Janeiro, it will be possible to better understand the context of social housing between 2010 and 2017, particularly to what extent the program maintains the socio-racial segregation present in urban spaces. In order to investigate these possible perpetuations it is necessary to discuss certain black trajectories, such as the formal abolition of slavery and the removal of the black population from city centers through gentrification; this will be done in the first and second chapters. Following this, in the third chapter, an analysis will be carried out based on data obtained from the Ministry of Regional Development, which comes from empirical research consolidated by the agency. The fourth chapter will discuss some reflections that propose affirmative racial and social actions in order to conduct more egalitarian public policies, which privilege both the redistribution of assets as well as the recognition of these subordinate groups
