Desigualdades múltiplas e o direito à cidade: uma análise sob a ótica da redistribuição e reconhecimento

Abstract

In the present research, the challenges of constructing more inclusive cities will be addressed. To that end, the perspectives and dimensions of social justice will be approached through Nancy Fraser's theory, because of the complexity that urban inequalities and injustices present, insofar as they structure the way the urban environment is reproduced. The need to ally the issue of economic redistribution with the recognition of the socio-cultural historical circumstances of exclusion and denial of rights, mainly due to gender and / or race, analyzed under the participatory parity spectrum will be highlighted. Within this key of understanding, will be worked the Brazilian urban policies and the challenge of the Right to the city in face of the multiple faces of social inequality. The idea will be worked out that equality and greater access to cities will not only be achieved through economic redistribution but also through the recognition of historically constructed differences. In this sense, the right to the city stands as a human right insofar as it relates directly to the conception of a dignified life and a search for more equality in social relations, be they economic, gender or race. For this reason, it will be highlighted the collective force of claim of social movements and their role in the phenomena of removal and gentrification. Therefore, the human right to the city can be an object of dispute that depends actively on the action of social actors in the exercise of this right that in theory and in practice belongs to everyone.
