"Urbanismo fantasmagórico” e vida cotidiana, em um conjunto habitacional do programa minha casa, minha vida, em Campina Grande-pb: disputas, resistências e desigualdades.

Abstract

The Aluízio Campos Housing Complex, in the city of Campina Grande - PB, was designed as the “flagship” of the ambitious Multimodal Complex project - a type of planned neighborhood that - in addition to housing, would integrate an industrial and technological hub, with promises of generation of employment and income, education, research and innovation institutions, botanical gardens, etc. The construction of the housing project was publicized as the largest project under the Minha Casa Minha Vida Program, within the scope of Range 1 of the country. An innovative, grandiose project that ended up also generating great expectations among registered families, eligible to participate in the draw that would define those awarded with homes in the project. Through the perspective of the Sociological Craftsmanship of the Qualitative Method, with documentary research and a comprehensive approach to the research elements, this thesis discusses “phantasmagorical urbanism” - the urban promised, but which is not realized, after the delivery of properties - the effect of inequalities, apathy and frustrations, which occur in the daily lives of housing residents, in a social context marked by neoliberal measures to weaken the State and its planning role, associated with conflicts and games of interests between political groups at the municipal and state levels. Four years after the properties were handed over, a context of apathy was identified, with the residents' confinement; and low interaction between neighborhoods; the deepening of social and educational inequalities, with a high rate of unemployment, in addition to the high number of young people without attending high school, due to the fact that there are no nearby State Schools that accommodate the number of students from Aluízio. This study also discusses organization and adaptation strategies in housing; and survival and resistance strategies as a whole, to the detriment of materializing the dream of owning a home. From the heterogeneity of profiles observed, it was identified that the construction of the wall appears as an element of social distinction that separates those who, in some way, believe they are superior in relation to some neighbors, taking advantage of the debate on employment and income relations. , access to education, production of stigmas and sociability, among neighbors of a popular housing complex in the PMCMV.
