Condomínios fechados: a produção habitacional contemporânea e a auto-exclusão dos ricos no espaço urbano de Natal RN (1995 2003)

The present work analyzes the fast evolution of gated communities in Natal-RN´s urban space. Characterized by the occupation of large areas, providing private security and utilities, this kind of real estate use arises a long list of questions and issues from society and scholars, due to privatization of urban space, bending of law constraints and the lack of an integrated planning of the cities where they are built. The reasons for its fast growth in Brazil s urban areas are analyzed, considering the impact on formal urban planning and municipal services and on the identification of urbanistic, architectural pattern and constraints, as well as legal, social and economic issues. This study is based on the detailed analysis of the first three units of gated communities built in the urban space in Natal, between 1995 and 2003, including their evolution throughout time and the specific social and economic reasons for its present widespread adoption in Brazilian real estate market and, particulary, in our city. The main objective of this piece of work is to answer the why s and how s these phenomena evolved, setting a basis for the definition of adequate public policies and regulation of this kind of urban land use

O ouro branco abre caminho: o algodão e a modernização do espaço urbano da Cidade da Parahyba (1850-1924)

The present research deals with the modernization process of the Cidade da Parahyba2, between 1850 and 1924, and its relation with the cotton economy, which represented the main source of wealth accumulation for both the private and the public sectors throughout the First Republic. This study on urban history was developed by focusing on the understanding of the city s spatial formation, and despite its emphasis on the economic aspects involved, other factors that also contribute to the development of the social life were not put aside. The modernization process of the Cidade da Parahyba was also analyzed during the period established for the study according to a chronological and thematic approach that established comparisons with the financial situation of the State, whenever this was necessary, with special attention to the contribution of the cotton economy to the State´s revenues. It was possible to detect a lack of financial help and loans from the federal and municipal administrations for finishing several public works already underway in the capital, since the federal funds allocated to the State of Parahyba do Norte were rather employed in emergency works against droughts and in agricultural development. One can then conclude that the financial resources required for the urban interventions were withdrawn from the State s treasury itself, resources that were collected mainly from activities such as cotton exportation and cotton trading. Another factor shows the interdependence between the urban remodeling and the cotton economy: during the years marked by great droughts or by hard plagues on the cotton plantations, cotton production decreased, as well as the State s finances. The first measures taken by the State s administrators were to halt all projects of urban remodeling in progress in the Cidade da Parahyba, which was, clearly, the most privileged city by the State s presidents during the period analyzed. 2 The city of João Pessoa was named Cidade da Parahyba, a designation that remained until September 1930, when it received its present-day name in order to pay homage to the president of the State, João Pessoa Cavalcanti de Albuquerque, murdered in the city of Recife in August of that same year. At that time, the State of Paraíba was known as Parahyba do Norte. Since this work is limited to a period of time comprised within the First Republic, the names employed respect the terms used in those days

Uma cidade para pessoas: funcionalidade, racionalidade e emotividade nas relações mobiliário urbano, espaço público e cidadãos

This research investigates how functionality, rationality, and emotionality applied to urban furniture design contribute to the organization, legibility, and qualification of public spaces, according to different layouts, physical and visual qualities of the urban furniture as well as the quality of urban infrastructure that may influence the uses and appropriation of urban spaces by pedestrians, turning those spaces into socially centripetal or centrifugal places. The work consists of two parts. First refers to a bibliographical review concerning two main issues of the investigation: product design and legibility of public space, defining the conceptual and theoretical bases, linked to methodological strategies aimed at systemic planning and integrated management of urban furniture design and legibility of public spaces (sidewalks), that are necessary to define the existing relationships among the user s interface (pedestrians); product (urban artifacts); built environment (sidewalks). The second part refers to the achievement of empirical approach throughout visual analysis of public spaces and the functional and qualitative evaluation of the existing urban furniture in the central neighborhood of Cidade Alta, Natal, RN, according to the theoretical researched concepts and methodological procedures. The results expose the weaknesses and levels of intensity arising from the relations among public space, urban furniture, and users, revealing the need for theoretical and practical approaches which would help the decision-making in planning, designing and integrating innovative, sustainable, and ethical solutions in order to design attractive public spaces that could provide sociability and citizenship throughout integrated public management, city systemic thinking and urban identity. The suggested guidelines at the end of this research will provide the necessary strategies to design suitable urban furniture systems according to aesthetic and practical urban infrastructure and city context, aiming to ease visual and physical conflicts that may negatively interfere with the appropriation of public spaces by the citizens

Centros históricos e desenvolvimento urbano: um estudo comparativo entre os programas Monumenta no Brasil e Polis em Portugal

Both the end of the twentieth century and the beginning of the twenty-first century have been characterized as a period of major political, economic, social and cultural transformations. Two of the major consequences of the political-economical crisis of the end of last century are the restructuring of capitalist production, and the consolidation of neoliberalism as a worldwide phenomenon. This new world political-economical scenario has influenced, in a dialectic way, the contemporary urban development. In that sense, "new" spatial processes and new paradigms in both urban management and urban planning have gained shape. In this context of urban transformations, the central areas of western cities, also known as historic centers, are being increasingly (re)valued. Since the Second World War, the historic centers urban areas which have great infrastructure and symbolic relevance had been undergoing a process of evasion of population and activities, undeniably linked to the neglect of government authorities. However, in recent decades, the question of historic centers rehabilitation has acquired a growing interest, academically and in political agendas. The object of this dissertation is to focus on how the government of each Brazil and Portugal has dealt with the issue of historic center rehabilitation through programs of urban rehabilitation

A CONSTRUÇÃO DE UM ESPAÇO URBANO VOLTADO PARA A CONSOLIDAÇÃO POLÍTICA E TERRITORIAL DO TOCANTINS-BRASIL

Neste trabalho, discutimos os princípios das intervenções planejadas, voltadas para a transformação de um território rural em um espaço urbano, dentro de duas perspectivas: a) legitimação de um território político; b) de modernidade e progresso. Como a pesquisa foi desenvolvida em espaços e tempos pretéritos e diacrônicos, utilizamos duas vertentes teóricas: na primeira vertente, a categoria tempo foi trabalhada no âmbito da essência histórica resultante das intervenções públicas e privadas, direcionadas à ocupação dos espaços da cidade e do poder, nas três esferas do estado, entre os anos1989 e1990; na segunda vertente, a categoria espaço foi desenvolvida no contexto da existência objetivando o entendimento das intervenções direcionadas para a estatização e privatização dos espaços destinados a construção e consolidação de Palmas como capital do Tocantins. Diante das características dos problemas apontados, buscamos na “etnometodologia” os princípios norteadores das discussões sobre a construção de uma cidade planejada em meio às crises econômicas e político-sociais, caracterizadas nos anos 1990. Neste cenário, criaram o Tocantins e construíram Palmas.

CLIMA URBANO EM JALES/SP: CARACTERÍSTICAS DA TEMPERATURA E DA UMIDADE RELATIVA EM EPISÓDIOS DE INVERNO

A partir da década de 1960, ocorreram alterações nas relações de trabalho no campo e na cidade, que tiveram como consequências o êxodo rural e o crescimento das cidades brasileiras, sendo que a cidade de Jales-SP, também se insere neste contexto. As alterações nas características naturais provocadas pela urbanização e, acentuadas pelo planejamento inadequado, resultam em diversas modificações no ambiente urbano. O clima é um dos componentes do ambiente que também está sujeito a essas mudanças. Dessa maneira, o presente artigo tem como objetivo apresentar as características da temperatura na cidade de Jales-SP, às 21h, no período referente ao mês de julho de 2010. Para que esse objetivo fosse alcançado se utilizou de adaptações das propostas metodológicas de Monteiro (1976), Mendonça (1994) e Amorim (2000). As propostas metodológicas utilizadas nesse trabalho compreendem o clima urbano como um sistema, ou seja, a expressão das condições atmosféricas, resultantes da interação de diferentes escalas climáticas e de superfície. Para que os objetivos fossem atingidos foram realizados registros da temperatura e da umidade relativa por meio de mini estações em pontos fixos distribuídos pela malha urbana e pontos representativos do ambiente rural. Os resultados mostraram diferenças térmicas entre o rural e o urbano, além de diferenças entre os diversos bairros da cidade, que atingiram 6,8ºC.

CENÁRIOS AMBIENTAIS E O PLANEJAMENTO PARA O ATERRO DO FLAMENGO, RIO DE JANEIRO

Os problemas ambientais, os quais vêm sendo discutidos em âmbito global, têm tido cada vez mais ênfase nas discussões locais, principalmente nas grandes metrópoles. Esse trabalho tem como objetivo mostrar uma nova forma de pensar o planejamento e a gestão das cidades a partir da utilização de novas propostas e técnicas para a inclusão da questão ambiental, assim como a elaboração de cenários ambientais pode ser uma alternativa viável para o planejamento, pois estes tem como pressuposto alcançar todos os níveis socioeconômicos e ambientais da sociedade e suas inter-relações. Nesse sentido, é adotado como o recorte espacial o Parque Brigadeiro Eduardo Gomes (Aterro do Flamengo), no município do Rio de Janeiro, cuja implantação na década 70 provocou uma alteração da perspectiva e da dinâmica urbana da cidade e atualmente apresenta diversos problemas em função de sua degradação. A partir da elaboração de cenários, são projetadas as possibilidades, para antecipação dos problemas ou soluções que podem aparecer em médio ou longo prazo.
