“…Lethal violence in favelas is mostly directed at young black men. However, women suffer very high levels of non‐lethal, everyday violence (Coelho, 2012; Krenzinger et al, 2021). By shifting the frame of analysis from death to debilitation and ‘biopolitics multiple’, we are better able to understand women favela residents' experiences of violent bordering.…”

“…The Maré is also the site of particularly aggressive, invasive, and militarized police operations (Silva, 2009). The gendered nature of this everyday conflict, and how it impacts on embodied feelings and emotions, needs to be understood more fully (Coelho, 2012; Krenzinger et al, 2021; Wilding, 2012). In this section, we focus on the debilitating effects of urban violence on women's biosocial embodiments and lived experiences.…”

Within emerging fields of research focusing on neuro-urbanism, neuro-geographies, and biosociality, which experiment with using emerging mobile biosensor methods, few if any have used them to research socio-spatial life in communities that suffer high levels of violence and other socio-spatial injustices. Extending non-representational accounts of the body, emotions, and affect, this paper discusses an experimental geography-neuroscience collaboration, working in a favela of Rio de Janeiro to explore the embodied urban emotions and affects of violently bordered urban communities. Emphasising non-representational, corporeal spatial practices in a study of women living in Brazil's favelas, we use electrodermal activity biosensors to propose a novel methodological and analytical approach that focuses on forms of affective debilitation and resilience. Theoretically, we draw on biopolitical theory and border theory to propose a method that avoids oppositions between biopolitical and necropolitical accounts of borders. The aim of the research, conducted in June 2016, is to understand levels of affective debilitation or resilience among women living in the Maré Complex of favelas in Rio de Janeiro. Using a wearable biosensor, we took measures of electrodermal activity of eight women as they undertook one of their routine, everyday journeys within the favela. We also conducted an hour-long qualitative interview with each participant. We find that for all our participants, navigating the favela's violent border spaces subjects their bodies to very high levels of affective and cognitive demand. While some women responded to this with stress reactions that created acute levels of affective debilitation, others responded very strongly, showing exceptionally high levels of affective resilience. Our research highlights the affective labour required of women to co-construct urban borders, and emphasizes their agency and forms of everyday resistance in shaping the favela's affective atmospheres.Combined biosensing (electrodermal activity/galvanic skin response) data and interview data reveal that women living in the favela experience high levels of

“…185–186). In favelas, women are much less likely than men to be killed (though see Barbosa, 2001; Romio, 2009), but disproportionately suffer the effects of non-lethal, routine forms of violence and terror (Alves, 2018; Krenzinger et al, 2021; Perry, 2013; Rocha, 2012; Santiago et al, 2019). This violence has profound impacts on women’s mobility – a key aspect of the right to the city.…”

This article offers a creative disjunctive feminist analysis of affective rhythms within a complexly bordered complex of favelas in Rio de Janeiro. It explores the gendered atmospheric constitution of authority in the favela’s violent border spaces, arguing that authority is partly embodied through a channelling of attention. Attention is conceptualised as involving not just conscious intentions, perceptions and emotions, but also non-conscious rhythms of autonomous affective self-regulation. The article is structured through a tripartite disjunctive form that expresses the bordering of city, body and experience. Drawing on qualitative interview data, quantitative electrodermal activity physiological data and creative writing, the article dwells with the materiality of words and the forms of affects to express material and physiological aspects of emotion and affect in journeys around the internal border-spaces of the city. Adapting the modernist tradition of ‘stream of consciousness’ writing, we style a ‘stream of attention’ form of writing that expresses multiple modes of embodied, conscious and preconscious attention.

“…Em uma revisão não sistematizada, encontramos a seguinte compreensão de território conflagrado: sem definição 6 ; território com a presença da violência armada 7,8 ; sob o domínio do tráfico de drogas 9 ; com prevalência do ordenamento jurídico criminal 10 ; localidade com frágil presença do Estado de Direito, que se evidencia na precarização de serviços públicos e em uma segurança pública que atua constantemente com violência 11 . O Projeto de Lei nº 9.762 de 2018, de autoria do deputado federal Ivan Valente (PSOL), define em seu art.1 §2º territórios conflagrados pela violência uma área caracterizada pelos altos índices de violência, apresentando índices de homicídios superiores à média nacional em mais de 25% e/ou que sejam objeto de operações de segurança resultantes de intervenção federal ou de garantia de lei e ordem.…”

RESUMO O artigo propõe discutir os impactos da violência na experiência cotidiana e nas condições de vida dos trabalhadores e usuários do Sistema Único de Saúde, que vivem e trabalham em localidades do espaço urbano designadas como ‘territórios conflagrados’. Para abarcar a complexidade do tema nos debruçamos sobre dois conjuntos de indagações, que se interrelacionam a diferentes campos do conhecimento: i) os territórios no campo da saúde e, mais especificamente, do descritivo conflagrado; ii) o fenômeno da violência urbana – considerando às disputas armadas pelo poder e comando do tráfico de drogas em territórios conflagrados de favelas – e seus impactos no trabalho da Atenção Básica. A partir da autoetnografia foram trazidas diferentes cenas vivenciadas em unidades de Atenção Básica do município do Rio de Janeiro. Verificou-se uma sobreposição de invisibilidades e violências que geram sofrimento mental e expõem vários desafios e dilemas na prestação do cuidado desses territórios. Propõe-se a ampliação do conceito de território conflagrado com o intuito de abarcar os processos sociais relacionados ao fenômeno da violência e dar visibilidade à necessidade da efetiva transformação das condições de vida e saúde das coletividades. Compreendemos a importância de articulação interdisciplinar e intersetorial tendo em vista que esse complexo problema social traz impactos para a saúde pública.
