title: Gentrification in urban studies: an investigation about the academic production of cities

description: Abstract Many of the current urban transformation processes are discussed based on the notion of gentrification. Its traditional definition implies urban restructuring and replacement of social classes. However, its application to urban studies has led to a debate focusing on various topics. What types of processes are related to gentrification in current studies? This article presents the findings of a bibliometric research concerning the use of the term gentrification. We searched for documents published in the databases Web of Science and SciELO in the last five years containing the term in their titles. A total of 159 articles was found. The results indicate an increase in the use of the term, the establishment of diverse types of gentrification, and academic differences in the attribution of the consequences of this process.

title: Entrepreneurial urban planning in real estate, residential and service complexes: Reserva do Paiva under analysis

description: Abstract The Real Estate, Residential and Service Complexes (CIRS) are plurifunctional enterprises that require a long period of time to be completed and whose production involves inter-scaled actions. They are designed under a global-local logic in which the place adjusts itself to monetary requirements as a condition to fit new modernizing standards. Governance evidences the leading role of private capital, although the State is a fundamental agent that regulates and ensures the viability of the business. Based on this, this article analyzes the urban governance of this entrepreneurial type of urban planning that resulted in the design of the CIRS Reserva do Paiva, in the Metropolitan Region of Recife. The main criticism that arises is that these real estate complexes are a conservative response of urban planning to current urban problems and, when they are designed and produced under the keynote of socio-spatial exclusiveness, they deny the city as a whole and do not contribute to the overcoming of its problems.

title: Space in geography and the space of architecture: epistemological reflections

description: Abstract Geography and architecture are two areas of knowledge whose respective subject corpora apparently focus on the same object – space. This is the starting point of these theoretical notes, the objective of which is to draw attention to certain epistemological distinctions between the above-mentioned areas. Therefore, in the first part, it is noted that it was only in the 1970s that the concept of space became a key concept of geography. Moreover, possible differentiations of this concept are announced in comparison with the theoretical formulation of architectonic space. In the second part, the theoretical and methodological specificities that define architectural space are indicated. It is hoped that the reflections presented in this article will contribute to minimize possible instances of epistemological confusion.

title: When the project disguises the plan: conceptions of planning and its metamorphoses in the city of Belém, state of Pará

description: Abstract The recent initiative of the municipal government of Belém to renovate the Ver-o-Peso open market, the main symbol of the capital’s historic downtown, is taken, in this paper, as a starting point to discuss conceptions of city and interventions conducted by local political groups based on coalitions with the private sector and the local media. The paper approaches, particularly, the contradictions observed in the attempt to internationalize Belém and the selective nature that strategic planning offers when the political sphere does not consider the complexity of the Amazonian urban environment. The text argues that it would be possible to create mediations for exogenous conceptions of planning in order to propose a philosophical basis for the modernization of Belém that takes into account popular participation, the inclusive party and the local socio-biodiversity.

title: Street performers: workers or beggars?

description: Abstract This paper presents the main features of the interaction between street performers and the audience at different times, locations, and types of art, using the observation method. The results enabled us to note relationships among the observed codes, such as the spectators’ social profile and the kind of art they appreciate and to which they contribute financially. Other aspects that influence the interaction with the artist are the age group of the audience and the geographical location of the performance. The research showed that these artists’ performance is a democratic phenomenon but, generally speaking, these professionals are still seen by the population as beggars, not as people whose artistic career is under construction.

title: Crisis and neoliberalization rounds: impacts on metropolitan areas and on the labor world in Brazil

description: Abstract The purpose of this essay is to analyze the crisis and recent neoliberalization rounds on the global and national scales, aiming to discuss possible impacts on the labor market, especially in urban--metropolitan areas in Brazil. Based on the nature of the Brazilian urbanization process, it seeks to identify the logic of those rounds and of current geopolitical and geo-economic transformations, trying to place Brazil within this context. It analyzes the urban network and the phenomenon of the metropolis, which is an urban and complex socio-economic and socio-spatial system, as an important locus to investigate changes in the labor world of Brazil. It concludes by arguing that, in the last 20 years, from 1995 to 2015, Brazil underwent three neoliberalization rounds that used very different devices, mechanisms and instruments of re-regulatory experiments. They have had different repercussions and require in-depth comparative studies.

title: Crisis, dispossession and labor market in Spain: impacts on the Metropolitan Region of Madrid

description: Abstract The Spanish urban areas have experienced a crisis that is global in its dimension but has different local manifestations. Such crisis has intensively affected the labor markets of these areas. Dispossession processes are reflected in the strong growth of unemployment, job insecurity, wage devaluation and less protection for workers, who are concentrated in the most vulnerable urban sectors. The article offers a theoretical reflection on these issues and analyzes what has happened in the metropolitan region of Madrid, in the Spanish context, by using different indicators. It also specifies deep internal disparities in the impact of the crisis within the agglomeration, which increase the territorial segmentation that has been inherited and pose new challenges.

title: The crisis of neoliberal globalization and labor markets in Andalusia (Spain)

description: Abstract The profound changes in economic, labor, social and institutional structures that have been occurring since the late 20th century have become faster, deeper and more complex over the last decade, as a crisis of exceptional depth has been generated. Although it began as a financial crisis, it has evolved to become systemic. This crisis, in addition to exposing the frailties of the system, is causing new socio-economic and territorial inequalities. The aim of this paper is to analyze the effects of the crisis on labor markets of the cities of Andalusia that have more than 20,000 inhabitants, trying to detect whether there have been changes in the territorial model of this region, which is considered peripheral both in the Spanish and European spheres.

title: Post-2008 crisis in the Portuguese cities of NUT III Oeste: unemployment and social exclusion

description: Abstract In this paper, we evaluate the impact of the post-2008 crisis on unemployment, accessibility to sources of income and essential goods, and on situations of poverty and exclusion experienced by families living in the cities of NUT III Oeste2 (Alcobaça, Caldas da Rainha, Peniche and Torres Vedras). The results are based on a fieldwork (387 households were inquired and the collected information refer to 1,028 individuals) that was conducted from April 4 to May 6, 2014. Overall, the results we attained quantify and qualify the decline of the access to employment and, as a consequence, to sources of income by the households, exposing multiple dimensions of the social exclusion that these communities experienced in the six years that were analyzed (between 2008 and 2014).

title: Contradictions among development, labor and spacein periods of crisis: the case of Rio de Janeiro

description: Abstract During periods of crisis, it is common to state that the limits and contradictions of economic and political models are revealed. Recent crises have triggered pressures to reduce public spending; moreover, they have increased unemployment and brought proposals to reduce labor and social rights. In this article, we argue that the general characteristics and contradictions of the national development model and its crisis can be best observed in their spatial and labor dimensions. Thus, the objective is to examine transformations in these dimensions in Brazil and in the state of Rio de Janeiro between 2003 and 2016, given that the national cycle and the cycle of this state are largely articulated.

title: Employment in the oil sector: economic dynamics and work in the North of the state of Rio de Janeiro

description: Abstract This article records and analyzes the impacts caused by the oil industry in the North of the state of Rio de Janeiro, its structuring role in the labor market, and its influence on the behavior of the regional economy. The methodology applied to carry out the survey of regional jobs was based on quantitative research, which employed the analysis of secondary data related to formal work. Data from the General Roll of Employed and Unemployed Individuals (Caged), among others, were primarily used. It was concluded that medium – and long-term perspectives characterize this region as a declining oil province. However, it is possible to find strategies of productive reconversion based on endogenous projects, since the region has a high population density and has already achieved economic complexity in terms of service infrastructure.

title: The Brazilian shipbuilding industry and the recent crisis: the case of Polo Naval and Offshore Rio Grande (state of Rio Grande do Sul)

description: Abstract This article analyzes the reactivation of the shipbuilding industry in Brazil in the 2000s as a result of the neo-developmentalist policy of the governments of Lula and Dilma, which immediately reflected in the creation of jobs in the sector. Based on the historical contextualization of this industry in Brazil, with the use of data provided by the Annual Social Information List (Rais), by the General Roll of Employed and Unemployed Individuals (Caged), by the employers’ association (SinavaL), and by an interview with the workers’ union (Stimmmerg) on employment and its recent hiring dynamics, we have found that, although this activity is seasonal, characterized by the hiring of workers for specific projects, the employment crisis in 2015 can be explained by the political and legal scenario that has settled in Brazil.
