“…The perception that the higher frequency of violent deaths among Blacks is related to socio-environmental and economic factors resulting from the position occupied by this population in the social space is shared by some national and international authors [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] . On the other hand, geographical space has been understood as an inseparable set of systems of objects and actions which, when employed as a unit of analysis, reveals the historical production of reality 17 . Because this concept transcends its physical or natural condition and recovers its sense of historical and social character, it tends to be a theoretical/methodological alternative for guiding the analysis of social inequalities in health 18,19 .…”

Introduction: In Brazil, deaths by external causes rank first in the mortality statistics. Nevertheless, studies which investigate the relationship between mortality by external causes and race/skin color are scarce. Objectives: To evaluate the relative contribution of race/skin color to the spatial distribution of mortality by homicide in Salvador, state of Bahia, Brazil, in the period 1998 -2003. Material and Methods: This is a spatial aggregate study including secondary data on 5,250 subjects, using a unit of analysis called the "weighting area" (WA). Annual average death rates by homicide were estimated. The Global and Local Moran Index were used to evaluate the presence of spatial autocorrelation and the Conditional Auto Regressive (CAR) model was employed to evaluate the referred effect, using the R statistical package. Results: Global and Local Moran's I tests were significant. CAR regression showed that the predicted mortality rate increases when there is a growth in the proportion of black males aged between 15 and 49 years. Geometrically weighted regression (GWR) showed a very small variation of the local coefficients for all predictors. Conclusion: We demonstrated that the interrelation between race, violence and space is a phenomenon which results from a long process of social inequality. Understanding these interactions requires interdisciplinary efforts that contribute to advancement of knowledge that leads to more specific Public Health interventions.

“…Las investigaciones demuestran lógicas más positivistas de mapeo de las situaciones y su clasificación. Algunos de ellos han sido mapas de distribución socioeconómica en Londres de Charles Booth a fines de 1889, la ecología urbana de la Escuela de Chicago, investigaciones críticas de la producción socio-espacial como la de David Harvey en Social Justice and the City (1993) o la teoría de los dos circuitos de la economía urbana de Milton Santos (Santos, 1979) ; incluso, el desarrollo desigual de Neil Smith (1984) más la geografía del bienestar de David Smith (1974) han sido enfoques que han transmitido la preocupación mediante, por ejemplo, designaciones de zonas de la ciudad según las necesidades básicas y condiciones socioeconómicas.…”

2022) se hace necesario entender los patrones de consumo fundamentalmente en aquellas zonas urbanas. La geografía comunal de consumo establece un cambio radical en entender la sustentabilidad urbana, desde un foco en el desafío de la pobreza y consumo limitado. Mediante un Índice de Sustentabilidad Urbana se identifican patrones que develan procesos y oportunidades materiales de bienestar y niveles de consumo. Centrándose en aquellos marcos que dan cuenta de un metabolismo urbano o indicadores de impacto al bienestar intergeneracional, se evidencian altos niveles de consumo en cuatro comunas y además brechas destacables en las condiciones materiales y sociales a niveles intra regionales y nacionales. El articulo presenta la geografía del bienestar y el consumo urbano en Chile, cuyo propósito es indicar la condición de sustentabilidad urbana para el mejoramiento de condiciones materiales y sociales desacopladas del consumo y que, a su vez, advierta de ciertas paradojas en el decurso hacia el desarrollo.

“…Space is constructed by social relations in the process of social reproduction and therefore reflects the division of labor, the division into classes, power relations, centrality and marginalization, differences, inequalities and injustices of the distribution of resources and wealth, the products of collective work, and the contradictions of this process (Santos, 1979). The urban space of the capitalist city, which is a reflection of the social structure, is divided into segregated residential areas with different rhythms and natures of changeability, as a result of their social-spatial diversity: "... the presence of the poor increases and enriches social-spatial diversity, manifest by both the production of materiality in such contrasting neighborhoods and sites, and by the forms of work and life " (SANTOS, 1996, p.323).…”

The air quality in the metropolitan region of Rio de Janeiro (MRRJ) is compromised due to the presence of the second largest concentration of sources of air pollutants in the country, potentiated by the relief that interferes with the transport of atmospheric pollutants, forming areas with distinct concentrations. Despite this, MRRJ has received major projects such as the Rio de Janeiro Petrochemical Complex (COMPERJ) and the Companhia Siderúrgica do Atlântico (CSA), as well as many other industries attracted by the new BR493 highway, the Metropolitan Arc. Thus, the objective of this work is to identify areas of risk to human health, that is, the areas that most concentrate air pollutants and that are inhabited by a more vulnerable population. The methodology uses the ArcGis software to create maps of the areas with difficulties in dispersing atmospheric pollutants and of the vulnerability of the population, so that when they are overlaid a map is created showing the spaces of risk to health. The results show that the risk areas are precisely in the municipalities of the MRRJ that have received the most new ventures, which may exacerbate the health risk of the population.Keywords: Air Basin; Particulate Material; Social Vulnerability. RESUMO/ RESUMEN ESPAÇOS DE RISCO À SAÚDE EM CONSEQUÊNCIA DA POLUIÇÃO ATMOSFÉRICAA região metropolitana do Rio de Janeiro (RMRJ) tem a qualidade do ar comprometida devido à grande concentração de fontes de poluentes atmosféricos e ao relevo que interfere no transporte desses poluentes. Apesar disso a RMRJ vem recebendo grandes empreendimentos, inclusive industriais, atraídos pela nova rodovia BR493, o Arco Metropolitano. Assim, o objetivo deste trabalho é identificar os espaços de risco à saúde, as áreas que mais concentram poluentes atmosféricos e que são habitadas por uma população mais vulnerável. A metodologia utiliza o software ArcGis para criar mapas sobre as áreas com dificuldades em dispersar poluentes atmosféricos e sobre a vulnerabilidade da população que ao serem cruzados permitem obter o mapa dos espaços de risco à saúde. Os resultados mostram que os espaços de risco estão justamente nos municípios da RMRJ que mais têm recebido novos empreendimentos.Palavras-chave: Bacia Aérea; Material Particulado; Vulnerabilidade Social.
