The modern and contemporary urban reforms define and reinforce the characteristic informal scenario of Latin- American cities: favelas, villas miseria, barriadas and many others forms of popular habitat. La ciudad de Río de Janeiro, así como otras ciudades latinoamericanas, viene experimentando los impactos de las políticas neoliberales exacerbados en tiempos de Mundiales de Fútbol y Olimpiadas: entre ellos, las constantes violaciones del derecho a la vivienda y a la ciudad de los sectores marginales y marginalizados de la sociedad. Sin embargo, el proyecto de ciudad excluyente y elitista ya había sido trazado mucho antes, en los comienzos del urbanismo moderno en el país. En este sentido, el presente artículo pretende analizar –a partir de la revisión de estudios anteriores– el proceso de producción social del espacio urbano en Río, a fin de comprobar la hipótesis de que la segregación socioespacial es resultado de un proceso histórico del desarrollo de un urbanismo clasista, materializado en las reformas urbanas del inicio del siglo XX. Las reformas urbanas modernas o contemporáneas marcan y refuerzan el escenario de informalidad característico de nuestras urbes latinoamericanas: favelas, villas miseria, barriadas y otras tantas formas de hábitat popular.

| description |
The city of Rio de Janeiro, as other Latin-American cities, have been experiencing the impacts of neoliberal policies exaggerated in periods of FIFA World Cup and Olympic Games: Among them, the persistent violations of the right to housing and the right to the city, especially of marginal and marginalized sectors of population. Nevertheless, the exclusionary and elitist city project was planned before, in the beginnings of the modern urban planning in Brazil. In this way, the present article pretends to analyze –from the review of previous studies– the process of social production of urban space in Rio, in order to confirm the hypothesis that the social-spatial segregation is the result of an historic process of an elitist development, that materializes on the urban reforms from beginnings of the twenty first century. The modern and contemporary urban reforms define and reinforce the characteristic informal scenario of Latin- American cities: favelas, villas miseria, barriadas and many others forms of popular habitat. |
