A history of the representation of Rio de Janeiro’s slums in maps

Maps, as well as law, are regulated distortions of social territories (Santos, 2001). By analysing Rio de Janeiro’s local maps (notarial records, aerial photographs, urban projects, decrees, tourists maps, participatory maps, digital maps etc.) from 1928 to the current year, especially those of the...

By analysing Rio de Janeiro’s local maps (notarial records, aerial photographs, urban projects, decrees, tourists maps, participatory maps, digital maps etc.) from 1928 to the current year, especially those of the Cantagalo slum – Pavão hill – area, located between Copacabana and Ipanema’s neighbourhoods –, and crossing their information with the history of the struggle for permanence and rights gradually acquired by residents (from 1907 until now), one can clearly see the gradual change of some Rio de Janeiro’s slums from opaque spaces to bright ones (Santos, 2009). Based on the maps’ analysis, it’s possible to question whether the brightness of some slums happens at the expense of the opacity of others, for the slums without UPP [Police Peacekeeping Unit] end up being removed from the state’s mapping route and the major mapping companies, like Google.Keywords: mapping, law, slum, representation, participation. Os mapas, assim como o direito, são distorções reguladas de territórios sociais (Santos, 2001). No presente artigo, foram analisados os mapas cariocas (cadastrais, aerofotografias, projetos urbanísticos, decretos, mapas turísticos, mapas participativos, mapas digitais, etc.) de 1928 até o ano vigente, especialmente os da região onde se encontra a favela Cantagalo – morro do Pavão, situado entre os bairros Copacabana e Ipanema –, e cruzadas as informações neles contidas com o histórico de luta pela permanência e os paulatinos direitos adquiridos pelos moradores (1907 até o ano vigente). Assim, revela-se visualmente a gradual conversão de uma parcela das favelas do Rio de Janeiro de espaços opacos em espaços luminosos (Santos, 2009). Com base na análise dos mapas, é possível indagar: será que a luminosidade de algumas favelas acontece em detrimento da opacidade de outras? Pois as favelas que não possuem UPP acabam saindo da rota de mapeamento do Estado e das principais empresas de mapeamento, como é o caso da Google.Palavras-chave: mapeamento, direito, favela, representação, participação.
