Abstract

This research aims to investigate an ongoing process, where the strategy of entrepreneurship in the management of urban public policy has been adapting and conforming to the current context of economic policy called the neo-developmentism. Thus, the role of public-private partnerships stands as fundamental in the management of urban development within the three spheres of power. Discuss, therefore, the history of political reforms in the country that led to the adaptation of national developmentalism to the new developmentalism policy, to understand the context in which thec urrent public-private partnerships have been developed as a model for managing the territory. Also mention the legislation and discourses behind the defense of this kind of deal between the government and the private sector. Still, as the country faced a crisis in 2008, called the crisis of crises, using this model of land management. The megasporting events will be analyzed as strong attractives of investmentand business to the cities. In Rio de Janeiro, with the choice of city to host the Olympic Games, and also being one of the host cities of the FIFA World Cup in 2014, several of territorial transformations began. In addition to evidence that a series of violations were to come in order to make room and expand the market for private investments. The Olympic Park, the main site of the 2016 Olympics competitions, appears as an immense business opportunity with private enterprise, locatedon a broad expansion of the real estate market in the city: Barra da Tijuca. Thus many poor communities have suffered from the policy of forced displacement to make way for investments in theterritory. In this context, is the Vila Autódromo community, well established local side of the venture. The removal of this community is planned in the feasibility study and in de concession contract. Therefore, we will study the public-private partnership held for the construction of the Olympic Park, through the analysis of documents related to the bidding process and the selection of the winning consortium. Yet, as this project has impacted the case of Vila Autódromo community, which in addition to having been the target of other attempts of eviction, was subject to a policy of land regularization in the past and has a strong history of resistance and struggle for permanence.
