The main aim of the thesis is to analyse the recent socio-spatial patterns of Istanbul, in which squatter areas on publicly-owned land (gecekondu) and old historical centre of the city are subjected to regeneration projects, under the impact of making Istanbul a purified place for the significant social classes via exclusion of the others. The formulations of Henri Lefebvre for analysing the production of (social) space are used as the conceptual framework of the thesis. To reveal the case study, the recent urban regeneration projects in Istanbul, a wide range of qualitative data collection techniques and methodology, documentary analysis, in-depth interviews, participant observations, which will pave a way to understand the complex relations among social and spatial formations, are used. According to the analysis on the acceleration of urban regeneration projects in the city of Istanbul, the thesis argues two main points: Firstly, the specificity of urbanisation period in Istanbul after 2000 is characterised with the strong role of the central state, mainly MHA. Secondly, the people, who are living in the gecekondu areas and old historical centres in the inner city are not only evicted from their living spaces, they are also socially and spatially excluded from the city centres.

Presenting itself as implementation of residential condominiums, discusses the transformation of the built environment that has resulted in significant differences in the ways urban insertion of these residential complexes. The objective of this work is to characterize the phenomenon of residential condominiums homes, identifying determinants for the production process of this type, and performing a critical analysis of its features and its significance. Relates to the phenomenon of dynamic real in Fortaleza, and the time from 1995 to 2009 is justified because it represents a specific moment of this dynamic real estate in the good economic times facing the country and the availability of credit contributed to the explosion of residential condominiums. The methodology used in this work consisted in field observation, in order to register the impact on the perception of the built environment and public space in the neighborhood, in records obtained from aerial photos on the occurrence of residential condominiums and reports and interviews of architects designers of these condominiums. This M.Sc. thesis research found that the studied phenomenon is causing problems in urban space, especially residential segregation; provided mainly by the migration of high-class and middle-income of the neighborhoods in Fortaleza, influenced by the real estate marketing for the area southeast of the city which until recently was characterized with low density. / Discute o fenômeno dos condomínios horizontais no bairro Sapiranga em Fortaleza, do ponto de vista de sua relação com a Cidade. Apresentando-se como implantação de empreendimentos fechados (condomínios horizontais), discute-se a transformação do ambiente construído que resultam de significativas diferenças quanto às formas de inserção urbana desses complexos residenciais. O objetivo deste trabalho é caracterizar o fenômeno dos condomínios residenciais de casas, identificando causas determinantes para a produção desta tipologia, e realizando uma análise crítica de suas características e de seu significado. Relaciona-se o fenômeno à dinâmica imobiliária da cidade de Fortaleza, e o recorte temporal de 1998 a 2009 se justifica por constituir um momento específico dessa dinâmica imobiliária, em que o bom instante econômico enfrentado pelo País e a disponibilidade de crédito contribuíram para a explosão dos condomínios dessa natureza. A metodologia empregada no trabalho consistiu na observação em campo, com o objetivo de registrar o impacto sobre a percepção do ambiente construído como espaço público no bairro em estudo, em registros obtidos de fotos aéreas sobre a ocorrência de condomínios horizontais fechados e de relatos e entrevistas dos arquitetos projetistas destes condomínios. Assim, esta dissertação entendeu que o fenômeno estudado causa problemas no espaço intraurbano, notadamente a segregação residencial proporcionada, principalmente, pela migração das classes de alta e média renda dos bairros mais antigos de Fortaleza, influenciadas pelo marketing imobiliário, para a área sudeste da Cidade, que até pouco tempo era caracterizada com baixa densidade.

Une des priorités des gouvernements chiliens entre 1990 et 2005 était la réduction du déficit de logements. Les progrès ont été significatifs sur le plan quantitatif mais pas sur le qualitatif. Dans ce contexte, la première administration Bachelet a mis en place la Nouvelle politique du logement et d’amélioration de la qualité et l'intégration sociale, qui comprend le premier programme de réhabilitation des quartiers vulnérables, Quiero mi Barrio (PQMB). Une première étape d’étude reconstruit la généalogie et formulation du PQMB et une deuxième examine le développement, notamment à partir d’une étude de cas de deux quartiers. Les résultats indiquent qu’une intégration sociale à l’intérieur des territoires a primé sur une intégration sociale urbaine des quartiers par rapport au reste de la ville. PQMB apparaît comme un programme participatif d’amélioration d’espaces publiques, résultat qui renferme un processus dialectique provenant des décisions et des pratiques de tous les acteurs impliqués. PQMB a toutefois réussi à changer le référentiel des politiques de logement, de la satisfaction de la quantité à la considération de standards de qualité, ainsi qu’à introduire la participation comme un processus indispensable. Plutôt qu’une approche territoriale globale on observe une territorialisation des dépenses publiques, n’étant jamais suffisante pour répondre à la complexité du problème. Nous identifions ainsi trois impératifs pour la réhabilitation chilienne des quartiers défavorisés : le développement d’un système d’appui institutionnel collaboratif, riche et varié, un véritable travail interdisciplinaire, et une pratique d’échanges permanents entre chercheurs et praticiens. / One of the Chilean governments priorities between 1990 and 2005 was the reduction of the housing deficit. Progress has been significant quantitatively, but not qualitatively. In this context, the first Bachelet administration has implemented New housing policy of quality improvement and social integration, which includes the first rehabilitation program for distressed neighborhoods, Quiero mi Barrio (PQMB). A first research stage reconstructs the genealogy and formulation of the PQMB, and a second examines its development, in particular through a case study of two neighborhoods. The results show that a social integration within the territories took precedence over an urban social integration of the neighborhoods in relation to the rest of the city. PQMB appears as a participatory program to improve public spaces, which contains a dialectical process coming from the decisions and practices of all actors involved. However, PQMB has achieved a paradigm shift from quantity to quality in terms of Chilean housing policies, as well as the introduction of citizen participation as an indispensable process. Rather than a comprehensive territorial approach, a territorialization of public spending is observed, which is nonetheless never sufficient to tackle the complexity of the problem. We thus identify three imperatives for the Chilean rehabilitation of disadvantaged neighborhoods: the development of a collaborative institutional support system, rich and varied; a real interdisciplinary work; and a permanent exchange between researchers and practitioners. / Una de las prioridades de los gobiernos chilenos entre 1990 y 2005 fue la reducción del déficit habitacional.

No obstante, el PQMB logró cambiar el referencial de las políticas habitacionales, de la satisfacción de la cantidad a la consideración de estándares de calidad, así como también introducir la participación como un proceso indispensable. En lugar de un enfoque territorial integral, se observa una territorialización del gasto público que nunca es suficiente para satisfacer la complejidad del problema. La tesis identifica tres imperativos para la recuperación de barrios vulnerables en Chile: el desarrollo de un sistema de apoyo institucional y de colaboración, rico y variado, un auténtico trabajo interdisciplinario, y una práctica de intercambio permanente entre investigadores y profesionales ejecutores.
