Pobreza e espaço: padrões de segregação em São Paulo

Abstract

ESTE ESTUDO busca atualizar o debate sobre a segregação urbana no Brasil, com base nos dados do Censo Demográfico de 2000 e da utilização de Sistemas de Informação Geográfica. Sustentamos que o modelo centro-periferia é uma simplificação genérica da forma urbana, sendo a periferia de São Paulo heterogênea, o que acarreta importantes conseqüências para as políticas públicas.<br>THIS STUDY intends to revisit the urban segregation debate in Brazil, taking into account new data from the 2000 Demographic Census and the use of geographic information systems. We argue that the center-periphery model is a rough simplification of the urban form, and that the São Paulo outskirts are heterogeneous, with important consequences for public policies

Identifying areas susceptible to desertification in the Brazilian northeast

“…Each class received a weight factor, related to the potential influence on desertification process, that ranged between 1 (low susceptibility) and 2 (high susceptibility), producing 11 susceptibility maps (SM). The weight factors were assigned based on previous analyses of the literature (Crepani et al, 1996, Torres et al, 2003Alves, 2006;Santini et al, 2010;Symeonakis et al, 2013). These indicators were grouped into two groups as described below.…”

Mapa das juventudes de Santo André, SP: instrumento de leitura das desigualdades sociais

“…In the city of São Paulo, Southeastern Brazil, "higher levels of privation are present in more distant districts, especially in the north, east and south areas of the metropolitan region, while richer groups are highly concentrated in central São Paulo." 14 The map, constructed to reflect adolescents' social reproduction profiles, also shows great similarity with the map of poverty distribution in Santo André, designed from the "half a minimum wage per capita income" variable.7 The lower number of SDAs comprised spaces C and AC, while the higher number of SDAs comprised the more distant spaces AP and P, thus confirming the national pattern of exclusion and wealth accumulation. The average monthly family income of rich young adults was about R$ 22,000.00 in 2003, a value 14 times higher than the average monthly family income in the country and about 80 times higher than the line of poverty, below which the poorest 20% individuals are.…”

“…a This distribution follows the proportionality among classes, found in a sample from a study performed in the city of São Paulo in 2001, showing the growing proportion of young adults present in the population as poorer spaces are approached. 14 The pattern of rich center and poor periphery is not sufficient to portray inequality among the city's adolescents, once there are poverty spaces close to the center, as observed in the city of São Paulo in 2003. 4 Thus, although the dual periphery-center relation, which marked the consolidation of the city of São Paulo as a Brazilian industrial metropolis in the 1960s and 1970s, has evolved towards a less polarized model with the rise of sub-centers, there was no rupture with consolidated inequality patterns, but rather the creation of new designs, with the spread of poverty in spaces closer to the center.…”

Risco Vivido E Risco Percebido: Percepção De Riscos De População Exposta a Deslizamentos De Dunas

“…Isso significa que um número expressivo de pessoas precisa partilhar os recursos comuns que podem ser adquiridos com a renda familiar. Para Torres et al (2003) essa renda torna-se insuficiente trazendo consequências para a saúde, nutrição e educação.…”
