This thesis examines the regulation and development of the moneylending and pawnbroking markets in Britain since the 1870s. The six regulatory episodes examined illustrate how the role of state intervention in these markets has been debated, and how it has evolved. The thesis asks: what were the motivations for reform, which market features were regulators most concerned with, and what were their proposed solutions? It demonstrates how majority and minority viewpoints have informed regulation and documents the often-conflicting expectations of how regulation was meant to influence lending decisions, borrower outcomes and poverty. By identifying the primary motivating factors behind regulation, the study answers why and how some policymakers sought to restrict low-income borrowers from gaining access to credit. It finds that policymakers have shifted their focus from market competition and freedom of consumer choice towards financial inclusion and poverty reduction. The result is a better understanding of the regulation and development of two credit products that were, and remain, vital to the working class. This research shows that the motivations for reform have varied over time. In 1872, 1900, 1927, 2006 and after the Great Recession, policymakers sought to restrict ‘illegitimate, evil and predatory’ small loan lenders, who were accused of exacerbating the conditions of the poor. In 1974, policymakers sought enhanced regulation such as information disclosure to increase market competition and decrease the cost of borrowing. In 2014, the FCA believed that the payday loan market still lacked price competition and implemented price controls as a corrective measure. Less varied were the issues of concern and proposed solutions. This research identifies five main areas of regulatory concern: the high cost of loans, advertising, the use of an annual percentage rate (APR), the legitimacy of moneylenders and pawnbrokers in the financial system and regulatory enforcement. It identifies three main policy responses: price controls, information disclosure and licensing. By analysing the motivations, debated issues and proposed solutions, this research examines wider questions concerning freedom of contract, borrower rationality, bargaining inequity, market segmentation and credit rationing. It contributes to the scholarly and policy dialogue on price controls, information disclosure and the development of non-bank lending. This research also provides new perspectives on the Victorian poverty debate and the modern financial inclusion agenda as they relate to the interaction between regulation, high-cost credit and poverty.

The thesis deals with the life of people over sixty-five years, with special focus on financial security and loneliness. The theoretical part of the thesis describes the problems of aging and aging-related changes. Following chapters are devoted to the issues of poverty, gender inequalities in old age and social exclusion. Furthermore, according to the available scientific literature, i describe the themes of loneliness, the impact of loneliness on health and the importance of interpersonal relationships on the issue of loneliness. The thesis aims to better understand the impact of life events and life circumstances on poverty and loneliness in the lives of respondents, and how were these aspects perceived and experienced in the past. Also how do they perceive their current situation, especially in the area of the financial safety and loneliness. There was random selection of five respondents for the research with special objectives in mind equal participation both men and women and living alone after divorce or widowhood and marriage / partnership. These respondents retold their life stories with the help of extensive narrative interviews, which I later transcribed in detail and carefully read through, not to omit important milestones in their lives, which helped me to accomplish the aim of the thesis. For the practical part of the thesis I have chosen the strategy of qualitative research using narrative interviews. Narrative mode is based on a unique and compelling life story presentation with an emphasis on life experience. This technique is suitable for the older generation, which was also confirmed during the research. Two main questions were established for the research. 1.Did the experienced life events and life circumstances influence poverty and loneliness in their current lives? 2. How they perceived and experienced the poverty and loneliness during their lifetime? To answer these questions, it was necessary to keep the conversation arend relevant topics. The research resulted in the following conclusions. Surprisingly, respondents feel no poverty, although the level of their pension is often very near poverty area. Poverty is percieved as the situation of nothing to eat, nowhere to live and no means of subsistence. The explanation lies in the fact that all respondents lived in a time and place where you had to make do with less, and it is the source of their modesty and unpretentiousness. All respondents agree that the transition to retirement was an important milestone in their lives. Altough current pensions doesn't provide for that much activities they were accustomed to, they don't perceive their situation as feeling poor. You can say, that a modest life prepare respondents for life in retirement. In a similar way, respondents expressed the theme of loneliness. In all the interviews family was dominating factor. Respondents living in villages and small sized towns declare to maintain good neighbor relationships, often lasting from the time of childhood. Loneliness is most often associated with the loss of a partner. In the stories of two female respondents, there was loneliness occurance after the death of a partner. This period is stated as the worst in their life and they felt most alone then. Currently the loneliness is compensated by their children and grandchildren.

The thesis titled "Health and social situation of people living in the excluded locality "Stalingrad", arose because nowadays they are socially excluded localities increasingly viewfinder researchers, scholars and not least the media. Residents of socially excluded localities get from their neighbors in most cases verbal abuse and an overall disinterest. Locations also receive various nicknames, such as "house of horror" or "gypsy ghetto". The theoretical part of the thesis describes and explains the basic concepts and phenomena that are the subject of the thesis. Such concepts and phenomena are eg. social exclusion and its effects on the lives of individuals affected, or causes of socially excluded localities and what people are at risk of social exclusion. Furthermore, the theoretical part describes the health situation of people living in socially excluded locality in general. There are presented the basic concepts that bind to a medical situation such as quality of life and determinants that affect health and condition. In the last part of the theoretical background is given governs employment and economic situation of the socially excluded locality, focusing on unemployment, work accidents and the impact of unemployment on health. The main aim of this thesis was to describe what health and social situation of people living in the excluded locality "Stalingrad" and the sub-objective was to determine what relationships are residents of the excluded localities "Stalingrad" with their neighbors who live near the site. Have been established two research questions were: VO1: What is the history of people living in the excluded locality "Stalingrad" in the health and social context? VO2: There is a relationship between social and health situation of people living in the Czech excluded locality "Stalingrad"? In the research part of the work is characterized by the research group, which consisted of two informants from socially excluded locality "Stalingrad" and three neighbors who live near that site. For data acquisition, qualitative and strategy to be exact, narrative interviews. Before beginning the interview informants were familiar to the interview and its course, and were satisfied that the talks are completely anonymous and will be used only for the purposes of this thesis. It was determined topic of conversation for people living in excluded locality "Stalingrad" I set the question "Tell me about your life in "Stalingrad" from the time you've moved up until now.". For people living close to the site was established topic question "Tell me about your relationship with the neighbors of "Stalingrad". Interviews were transcribed verbatim and then analyzed using open coding and axial coding. In the discussion of the information obtained is compared with the available literature and research. The results are that the health situation of these people of "Stalingrad" is hampered mainly because of the physically demanding work (work in the forest, in a construction company, car service). Health situation of the signed occupational injuries suffered by the informant and his friend. These injuries are undoubtedly permanently signed on the quality of life of these people. A potential threat to the health status of the moisture that gets into the homes destroyed because of the structure of the garage. The social situation is such that informant have due to high spending three jobs that have yet demanding working hours. Social situation affects the fact that residents of "Stalingrad" must commute to work, and that it must invest a larger sum of money to refurbishment of dwellings. In the past, there were some conflicts and problems with the adoption of the residents of "Stalingrad" in the village community. In the conclusion of thesis is mentioned possible use of this work. The work may be assisted by social workers or Roma coordinators in solving health and social situation of people living in the surveyed area.

As ações afirmativas são medidas especiais, temporárias ou não, implementadas pelo Estado e por setores da sociedade civil, que visam corrigir desigualdades acumuladas ao longo de muitos anos, sejam elas raciais, de gênero, religiosas, étnicas, entre outras, e garantir a igualdade de oportunidades e de tratamento. Historicamente, o ensino superior brasileiro não tem registro em seu quadro de discentes e docentes de um percentual de negros condizente com a população existente no país. Este quadro é majoritariamente composto por brancos, o que demanda a geração de políticas públicas que possam reverter este cenário. A implementação de cotas raciais no ensino público superior teve início em 2003 na Universidade Estadual do Rio de Janeiro, sendo seguida por outras instituições; em 2010, compreendia 39 universidades, sendo 16 estaduais e 23 federais, além de outras instituições públicas de ensino superior que também adotaram este sistema, como centros universitários, fundações e institutos. Sendo um processo recente e ainda em avaliação, as cotas raciais têm sido objeto de reflexão em função de sua justificativa social, que consiste em dar mais oportunidades aos negros, dando incentivo para acessarem o ensino superior, oportunizando que possam futuramente ter as mesmas condições de inserção profissional que tem o restante da população. Com objetivo de analisar como essa experiência está ocorrendo, especialmente em sua efetividade enquanto ação inclusiva, realizou-se uma pesquisa qualitativa na Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul. A investigação, de cunho exploratório e descritivo, buscou, em fontes documentais, em entrevistas com servidores e discentes e na participação em diversas atividades institucionais, os elementos que poderiam elucidar o problema de pesquisa. Para analisar as diversas fontes de dados, foi utilizada a triangulação, que possibilita ao pesquisador entrelaçar e interpretar os dados coletados e devidamente organizados. Os resultados apontam que a inclusão desses alunos através das ações afirmativas de cotas efetiva-se gradativamente em aspectos como inserção no trabalho, mudança em relação ao sentimento de autoconfiança e na descoberta de novos horizontes, como a pesquisa, o ensino e a extensão, dimensões da vida acadêmica. A universidade tem desenvolvido ações para que essa inclusão seja efetiva, promovendo atividades e disponibilizando benefícios que dêem suporte financeiro e acadêmico para a permanência e a conclusão do curso, o que tem sido importante para os alunos cotistas quanto ao apoio básico necessário para que continuem essa caminhada acadêmica. Entre os aspectos que merecem maior atenção, estão a visibilidade dada aos cotistas e a efetiva integração destes junto à instituição em todos os segmentos. / Affirmative actions are special measures, temporary or not, implemented by the State or by private initiatives, aiming at correcting inequalities accumulated over many year, be they social, gender-related, religious, ethnic, among others, and at ensuring equality of opportunities and of treatment. Historically, the Brazilian higher education body of professors and students has no record of a percentage of blacks in keeping with the current country's population. This body is mostly composed of whites, which requires the creation of public policies that may reverse this scenario. The implementation of racial quotas in public higher education began in 2003 at the Rio de Janeiro State University, which was followed by other institutions; in 2010, these comprised 39 universities, 16 state universities and 23 federal universities, as well as other public institutions of higher education, including universities, foundations and institutes. As a recent process still under evaluation, racial quotas have been the object of reflection because of its social justification, which is based on giving more opportunities to black people, encouraging them to enter higher education, thus providing them with the opportunity of eventually having the same conditions of employability that the rest of the population has. Aiming to analyze how this experience has been realized, particularly in its success as an inclusive action, a qualitative research was carried out at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul. This investigation, of an exploratory and descriptive character, sought the elements that could elucidate the research problem in documentary sources, in interviews with the staff and the students and in the attendance to many institutional activities. In order to analyze the diverse sources of data, we used triangulation, which allows the researcher to cross and interpret data that was collected and properly organized. The results indicate that the inclusion of these students through affirmative action quotas is gradually actualized in aspects such as occupational integration, changes in the feeling of self-confidence and in the discovery of new horizons, such as research, teaching and public outreach, all dimensions of academic life. The university has promoted actions to ensure that this inclusion is effective, fostering activities and providing benefits that give financial and academic support for the students to stay in the course and finish the course. This has been important for the students who benefited from racial quotas in providing the basic support they need to continue their academic journeys. Among the aspects that deserve greater attention are the visibility given to these students and their effective integration into the institution in all its segments.

A presente dissertação focaliza os fundamentos da escravidão presentes na realidade brasileira, considerando os ideais liberais do projeto político de construção do Estado Nacional e a visão de políticos e intelectuais envolvidos no processo de discussão do escravismo, tendo o 1º Império (1822-1831) como um dos seus marcos temporais. Na atualização do tema o estudo aborda a questão dos afrodescendentes no Brasil Contemporâneo (2002-2006), visando a compreensão das políticas públicas de discriminação positiva: as cotas, cujo objetivo é constituir gradativamente a inclusão de negros e pardos em diferentes instâncias sociais; entre elas, as universidades públicas. Para tal, analisam-se as antíteses das propostas, discursos e práxis políticas, a partir da fundamentação teórica sobre liberalismo e escravidão, e de temas correlatos como “estado” e “liberdade”, enquanto dimensões constitutivas da vida política no despontar da sociedade moderna. Isso é feito pela ótica da Ciência Política e de forma complementar da Filosofia e da História Social do país. Para a realização do trabalho nos baseamos no método dialético, cujo suporte é a negação de uma realidade tida como estática. Tal procedimento nos permitiu trabalhar com as contradições ou antinomias sociais, através de bibliografias, artigos e pesquisas on-line. A partir desse material investigamos questões referentes às práticas atuais de racismo que desvendam o dilema da exclusão social e da ineficácia das políticas públicas de atendimento aos pobres e, de forma mais intensa, aos afrodescendentes. Também examinamos atividades de atendimento e assistência destinadas aos alunos cotistas nas universidades públicas que já aderiram o projeto de cotas raciais. Por meio da Ciência Política analisamos e problematizamos parte das categorias mediativas do processo de exclusão do negro que remontam ao Brasil-Colônia e se mantém até atualidade enquanto fato político, uma vez que a abolição não foi acompanhada de políticas públicas constituintes de cidadania afrodescendente. Assim, encontramos marcos importantes onde a negação sistemática do racismo contrasta com a sua existência velada, pautada pelo falso conceito de democracia racial. Experiência capaz de reproduzir uma realidade perversa nivelada apenas pelo conteúdo, mas sem consistência nas relações concretas nas quais, cotidianamente, os afrodescendentes são excluídos pela cor da pele. Por conseqüência, trata-se de necessidades que revelam e fundamentam a urgência da implantação de políticas de cotas em nível nacional. / This dissertation focuses on the basis of slavery present in Brazilian reality, considering the liberal ideals of the political project of the building of the National State and the vision of politicians and intellectuals involved the process of discussing slavery, having the First Empire (1822-1831) as the temporal landmark. In the development of this theme, this study addresses the issue of afro descendants in Contemporary Brazil (2002-2006) aiming the understanding of public politics of positive discrimination: the quotas, which attempts to gradually increase the number of afro-descendants, included in different social instances, among them, public universities. Thus, the antithesis of the proposals, speeches and political praxis will be analyzed from the theoretical framework of liberalism and slavery, as well as of correlate themes like “state” and “freedom”, while constituent dimensions of political life arise for modern society. This analysis is performed from the perspective of Political Science and of the Philosophy and Social History of the country as well. This research was based on the dialectic method which is the denial of a static reality. Such a procedure allowed us to work with the social contradictions or antinomies thorough bibliography, papers and on-line researches. From this material we investigated questions referring to actual practices of racism which reveal the dilemma of social exclusion and of the inefficacy of public politics serving the poor and more specifically to afro-descendants. We also examined services and assistance designated to “students selected by quota” of public universities that have already agreed to the project of racial quotas. Using Political Science we evaluated some of the categories that mediate the process of exclusion of the afro-descendants that date from the “Brazilian-Colonial” period and continue to the present as a political issue, since the abolition of slavery has not been accompanied by the success of public politics in creating afro- descendants as citizens. Thus, we find important indications where the systematic denial of racism contrasts with its evident existence, marked by the false concept of racial democracy. Experiences capable of reproducing a perverse reality, mediated only by the theoretical content of law, but with no consistency for the concrete relations in which, daily, the afro- descendants are excluded based on the color of their skin. Consequently, there are needs that reveal and underlie the urgency for the emergence of quota politics on the national level.

Para tanto, realizou-se levantamento bibliográfico e estudo dos principais documentos, nacionais e internacionais, que propõem a transformação da escola regular em escola inclusiva, no intuito de levantar as características essenciais da escola inclusiva. A partir desse estudo, realizou-se uma investigação qualitativa de abordagem etnográfica, no período de 17 de agosto de 2004 a 13 de janeiro de 2005. Os instrumentos para a coleta de dados formam, concomitantemente, observação direta nas salas de aula e na sala dos professores, observação participante e entrevistas semidiretivas. O estudo, a análise e a interpretações dos dados, realizados à luz de abordagens multirreferenciadas, evidenciam que as grandes inovações educacionais do momento apontam para a possibilidade da abertura das escolas à diversidade humana. Busca-se, ao final do trabalho, contribuir para a transformação da escola regular em escola que acolha a diversidade humana. / Salvador

Esta dissertação objetivou levantar alguns pontos para a discussão e reflexão do que entendemos como algumas estratégias sociais de resistência aos processos desterritorializantes entendidos, também como socioeconomicamente excludentes. Com aporte teórico, subsidiamos nossa pesquisa, desenvolvendo uma metodologia que envolveu, outrossim, levantamento bibliográfico, entrevistas e observações. Analisamos, especificamente, o caso da Rede Industrial de Confecção Solidária (RICS) e sua contribuição para a geração de trabalho, renda, que, neste caso, vai além de mera sobrevivência, pois se configura na participação efetiva dos envolvidos em todas as etapas do projeto, contribuindo para o desenvolvimento da qualidade de vida e fortalecendo valores como a dignidade dos indivíduos, que visam o benefício coletivo do grupo. Buscamos apreender de que forma o Estado, em suas esferas federal, estadual e municipal, favorece a criação e fomenta a reprodução das redes de solidariedade, para, posteriormente, abordar como o município de Porto Alegre comporta-se diante deste cenário. Assim, apesar de incipiente, tanto na prática e principalmente na teoria, a Economia Solidária vai trilhando o seu caminho, com o trabalho e da criatividade de quem a faz na esperança de sobreviver numa sociedade cada vez mais competitiva e excludente. / This dissertation objectified to raise some points for the quarrel and reflection of what we understand as some social strategies of resistance to the understood desterritorializantes processes, as also social and economically exculpatory. With it arrives in port theoretical, we subsidize our research, developing a methodology that involved, also, empirical survey of data. We analyze, specifically, the case of the Industrial Net of Solidary Confection (RICS) and its contribution for the work generation, income, that, in this in case that, goes beyond mere survival, therefore is configured in the participation accomplishes of involved in all the stages of the project, contributing for the development of the quality of life and fortifying values as the dignity of the individuals, that aim at the collective benefit of the group. We search to apprehend of that it forms the State, in its spheres federal, state and municipal, it favors the creation and it foments the reproduction of the solidarity nets, for, later, approaching as the city of Porto Alegre behaves ahead of this scene. Thus, although incipient, as much in the practical one and mainly in the theory, the Solidary Economy goes treading its way, with the work and of the creativity of which it makes it in the hope to survive in a society each more competitive and exculpatory time.

O sobrepastejo é a principal causa de degradação das pastagens naturais, resultando na diminuição do potencial produtivo e consequente capacidade de suporte desses campos, além da substituição da vegetação natural por espécies de menor valor forrageiro. A exclusão temporária do pastejo é uma ferramenta que pode contribuir para a recuperação ambiental e da capacidade produtiva das pastagens degradadas. Esta ferramenta, além de proporcionar o crescimento da biomassa aérea das plantas, permitindo que espécies de alto valor forrageiro se reproduzam, pode influenciar características importantes na biomassa subterrânea que envolve sequestro de carbono e melhoria nas características do solo. Neste trabalho buscamos compreender as relações entre o sistema radicular das pastagens naturais e a biomassa aérea, com a hipótese de que o diferimento, além de promover a recuperação de áreas degradadas pelo sobrepastejo via acúmulo de pasto e aumento da cobertura do solo, aumenta também a biomassa de estruturas subterrâneas. Foram aplicados três tratamentos de diferimentos: diferimento de primavera (DP), diferimento de outono (DO) e não diferido (ND) em duas áreas com histórico de intensidade de pastejo contrastantes 4% (4 kg de MS para cada 100 kg PV) e 8-12% (8 kg de MS para cada 100 kg de PV na primavera e 12 kg de MS para cada 100 kg de PV no restante do ano) avaliados por dois anos consecutivos. A biomassa de raízes (Braíz) foi maior no primeiro ano de avaliações no 4% e no 8-12% nos períodos pós DP e no 4% nas avaliações pós DO. A biomassa de rizomas (Briz) foi maior nos diferimentos (DP e DO) quando comparados isoladamente com o não diferido (ND) no 4%, no segundo ano pós DP para o 8-12% e foi maior para o DP no efeito cumulativo dos dois anos. A (Bsubt) também foi maior no primeiro ano de avaliação somente no 4%. A relação da biomassa aérea/subterrânea (R:A/S) foi maior nos diferimento de primavera (DP) e outono (DO) no ambiente com OF 4% nas comparações com o não diferido (ND) nos dois anos de avaliações e o DP apresentou uma melhor resposta cumulativa. O diferimento aplicado em período favorável ao crescimento vegetal proporciona aumento da biomassa aérea e, em ambientes com longo histórico de sobrepastejo, pode aumentar a biomassa de rizomas contribuindo para a maior cobertura vegetal de espécies que apresentam esse tipo de estrutura subterrânea. / The overgrazing is the main cause of degradation of rangelands, resulting in decreased production potential and consequently carrying capacity of these fields in addition to the replacement of natural vegetation by species of lower feed value. The temporary grazing exclusion is a tool that can contribute to environmental recovery and the productive capacity of degraded pastures. This tool, in addition to providing the growth of the biomass plant, allowing species of high forage value to breed, can influence important features in the underground biomass involving carbon sequestration and improved soil characteristics. This study aims to understand the relationship between the root system of natural pastures and biomass, with the hypothesis that the deferral, and promote the recovery of degraded areas by overgrazing pasture via accumulation and increased soil cover, also increases biomass underground structures. Deferrals three treatments were applied: spring deferral (DP), autumn deferral (DO) and not deferred (ND) in two areas with contrasting grazing intensity of historical 4% (4 kg DM per 100 kg BW) and 8-12% (8 kg DM per 100 kg of body weight in the spring and 12 kg DM per 100 kg of body weight in the rest of the year) evaluated for two consecutive years. The root biomass (Braíz) was higher in the first year of evaluations at 4%, and 8-12% in post DP periods and 4% in after THE assessments. The biomass of rhizomes (Briz) was higher in deferrals (DP and DO) compared alone with no deferred (ND) at 4% and was higher in the DP in the cumulative effect of two years. The (Bsubt) was also higher in the first year of assessment only 4%. The ratio of aboveground / underground biomass (R: A/S) was higher in spring deferral (DP) and autumn (DO) in the environment with OF 4% in comparison with the non-deferred (ND) in the two years of reviews and the DP showed better cumulative response. The deferral applied in good times to plant growth provides increased biomass and, in environments with long history of overgrazing, can increase the biomass of rhizomes contributing to higher vegetation species that exhibit this type of underground structure.

We have proposed ourselves to dialogue, in the Social Service Politics area, with the rising of the public politics intersection of attention to the population in street situation of Fortaleza municipality evaluating the social care ways to the people who lives in street and survives upon it. We have investigated the main facing ways of these groups to survive in the streets, discussing the social circumstances that surround the fact and the effective demands of social care to this segment. In this way the investigative effort happens in a double versant: uncovering the street representations which leads and attracts these groups to the public space and ties them in it, as though as their aspirations to the public power; evaluating the answers that the public politics of social care is building in face to the peculiar reality of street population. This is the challenge to be won in our investigation ride. It is in this perspective that we throw each other in the task of “having eyes of seeing” and going beyond the visible, uncovering this new universe of the “street nomads”, throughout a deeper study of the articulations between the segment of street residents to the nowadays rising politics of care to the street population of Fortaleza / No presente trabalho, temos como objetivo discutir a política da assistência social e a sua confluência com o segmento de moradores de rua que faz do espaço público sua morada e da sua presença na cidade uma das expressões da exclusão social. Propusemo-nos a dialogar, no âmbito da Política da Assistência Social, com a então nascente política pública intersetorial de atenção à população em situação de rua do município de Fortaleza, avaliando os rumos da proteção social quanto ao povo que vive na rua e dela sobrevive. Investigamos as principais formas de enfrentamento desses grupos para sobreviver nas ruas, discutindo as circunstâncias sociais que permeiam o fato e as demandas efetivas de proteção social a este segmento. Assim, o esforço investigativo se faz numa dupla vertente: descortinar as representações da rua, aquilo que os leva e atrai tais grupos ao espaço público e nele os atrela, bem como suas aspirações quanto ao poder público; avaliar as respostas que a política pública da assistência social está a construir face à realidade peculiar das populações de rua. É este o desafio a ser vencido no percurso de nossa investigação. É nessa perspectiva que nos lançamos na empreitada de “ter olhos de ver” e ir além do aparente, desvendando esse universo novo dos “nômades da rua”, através de um estudo mais profundo das articulações entre o segmento de moradores de rua com a então emergente política de atenção à população de rua do município de Fortaleza

This borough is famous for its strong fishing tradition and it is loosing its characteristic as time goes by, due to the great property speculation in this area of the city, in which we can see that when they relocate people from their social area they fragment the social relationships, thus risking the identity of the place. In removing the poor people, as well as the fishermen, who are part of the ancient process of Mucuripe, provokes conflicts and resistance of the people. But with the verticalization, which is a product of property speculation in this borough, the conflict became more intense and the main goal of the study is to understand the process of production and appropriation of Mucuripe before the crescent verticalization of this area. And to understand this process it was necessary the seach of a theoretical-countersign concept able to provide a approach intersubjective. It was also worth the analyses of the cartographic material which information about the income of each property, as well as the population density and the numbers of apartment in the borough and the identification of the Mucuripe´s buildings, which the purpose of demonstrating a space concentration of this verticalization. The cartographyc material, on the other hand provides a notion of time, by showing the transformation in this space at the level of lansdcape. The verticalization of Mucuripe reveals a strong socialspecial segregation and it has contributed to aggravation of the problem of the environmental situation of this borough, The Caravelle building, which was built on the edge of the Teixeira´s hill, while the population of the Maceió´s brook demonstrated the terrible conditions of life of the population that lived in risky areas in Mucuripe demonstrating the enviromental degradation in this borough. We see verticalization in Mucuripe as part of a global process of production in the cities of a modern project, in which as turning into a more “modern city”, it also becomes more excluding. / O Mucuripe, um dos bairros mais antigos de Fortaleza, vem passando por um processo de renovação urbana do qual a população de baixa renda é excluída. O bairro, conhecido por sua forte tradição pesqueira, vem sendo descaracterizado ao longo dos anos em razão da grande especulação imobiliária nessa área da cidade, que, ao remover a população de origem, fragmenta as relações sociais, pondo em risco a identidade do lugar. A remoção dos moradores de baixa renda, dentre eles os pescadores, é um processo antigo no Mucuripe, o que provoca conflitos de uso e movimentos de resistência. Mas, foi com a verticalização, produto da especulação imobiliária no bairro, que os conflitos se tornaram mais intensos. Com efeito, o objetivo central desse estudo é compreender o processo de produção e apropriação do Mucuripe, ante a crescente verticalização da área. Para a compreensão desse processo, fez-se necessária a busca de um referencial teórico-conceitual capaz de proporcionar uma abordagem interdisciplinar. Também foi de fundamental importância a análise do material cartográfico com informações sobre a renda por domicílio, a densidade demográfica, o número de apartamentos no bairro e a identificação dos edifícios no Mucuripe, com a finalidade de demonstrar a concentração espacial da verticalização. O material cartográfico, por sua vez, proporciona uma noção de temporalidade, ao mostrar as transformações ocorridas nesse espaço ao nível da paisagem. A verticalização no Mucuripe revela forte segregação sócio-espacial, e tem contribuído para o agravamento das questões ambientais no bairro. O Edifício Caravelle, construído na encosta do morro do Teixeira, a poluição do riacho Maceió e a precária condição de vida das populações que habitam em áreas de risco no Mucuripe, demonstram o nível de degradação ambiental nesse bairro. Entendemos que a verticalização no Mucuripe, faz parte de um processo global de produção das cidades, de um projeto modernizador, em que, ao se tornar mais “moderna”, a cidade torna-se mais excludente.
