Este estudo trata das bases legais que suportam uma objetiva discussão dos problemas decorrentes do fato de se ter apenas uma fonte de abastecimento de água no Rio de Janeiro. O pano de fundo a respaldar a discussão é a Lei 9.433/97. Para isso, fornece-se uma breve visão da estrutura jurídica relacionada à gestão dos recursos hídricos ao longo da história do Brasil, com suas diversas legislações constitucional e infraconstitucional. Pela sua pertinência, faz-se uma concisa discussão da efetiva constitucionalidade da Lei 9.433/97, destacando-se artigos que se relacionam com a outorga. Para melhor compreensão da questão do abastecimento da Região Metropolitana do Rio de Janeiro (RMRJ) e da possibilidade de ocorrência de situações críticas de desabastecimento, é oferecida uma limitada visão do potencial hidrográfico do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, particularmente associado ao rio Guandu e à transposição das águas do rio Paraíba do Sul. Palavras-chave: Recursos hídricos, Gestão das Águas, Direito do uso da água; Lei de Águas; Cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Abstract This study deals with the legal bases that support an objective discussion of the problems arising from the fact of having only one source of water supply in Rio de Janeiro. The background to support the discussion is the Law 9433/97. For this, we provide a brief overview of the legal framework related to water management throughout the history of Brazil, with its various constitutions and laws. Due to its relevance, there is a concise discussion of the actual constitutionality of the Act 9433/97, highlighting articles that relate to the grant of water right. To better understand the issue of supply of the Metropolitan Region of Rio de Janeiro (MRRJ) and the possibility of occurrence of critical situations of famine, it is offered a brief view of the hydrological potential of the State of Rio de Janeiro, particularly associated with Guandu and transfer water from the Paraíba do Sul River.

ResumoNossas cidades sãofortemente marcadas por processos de segregação socioespacial que as dividem em territórios  estrangeiros, cada qual com seu universo cultural próprio. Essesestrangeirismos frequentemente colocam desafios às práticas de extensão universitária, ou outras práticas de pesquisa e trabalho que colocam em contato distintos universos culturais. Apartir da experiência de se sentir estrangeira na Favela da Mangueira, que se deu no âmbito de um projeto de extensão universitária vinculado ao Instituto de Psicologia da UFRJ,pretendemos traçar uma reflexão sobre como delimitam-seessas fronteiras urbanas e sobre as possibilidades de invenção do comum em uma cidade dividida, colocando em diálogo nossas experiências no campo com as elaborações de autores da fenomenologia, filosofia política, história, arte e urbanismo. Buscamos colaborar, desta forma, com aqueles que atuam emprojetos de pesquisa-intervenção, extensão universitária, movimentos sociais, ONGs e outras formas de organização social que trabalhem em zonas fronteiriças dentro da cidade.Palavras-chave: Segregação Urbana; Produção do Comum; Estética; Política; Pesquisa-Intervenção.AbstractOur cities are keenly characterized by processes of socio-spatial segregation which divide them into estranged territories, each with its own cultural universe. Such estrangements areoften challenging to university extension practices, as wellas to other work and research practices which foster contact between different cultural universes. Based on our experience of‘feeling like a foreigner’ in the Favela da Mangueira during a university extension project associated with the Institute of Psychology of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, we offer a reflection on how urban partitions arise and how we can invent the common in a divided city. We look to make our experiences in the field conversant with the works of authors from different areas, such as phenomenology, political philosophy, history, art and urbanism. Thus, we seek to collaborate with other researchers who direct research-intervention projects, university extension, social movements, NGOs and other types of social organizations working in urban fringe zones.Keywords: Urban Segregation; Production of the Common; Aesthetics; Politics; Research-Intervention.

The City

The city of Rio de Janeiro underwent profound changes between 1870 and the early 20th century. Its population grew dramatically, attracting migrants not only from abroad but also from other regions of Brazil. It also expanded significantly in size, as the construction of trolley and railway lines and the introduction of real estate capital powered the occupation of new areas. Meanwhile, urban reforms aimed at modernization transformed the social ways in which urban space was used. During this period, Rio de Janeiro went from being the capital of the Brazilian Empire to being the capital of the Brazilian Republic. It nevertheless maintained its position as the cultural, political-administrative, commercial, and financial center of the country. Against this backdrop of change, the city was an important arena for the political struggles that marked the period, including demonstrations in favor of abolition and the republic. Rio de Janeiro’s citizens were not inert during this period of transformation, and they found various ways to take action and fight for what they understood to be their rights. Protests, demands, petitions, and a vibrant life organized around social and political associations are examples of the broad repertoire used by the city’s inhabitants to gain a voice in municipal affairs. Citizens’ use of public demands and petitions as a channel to communicate with the authorities, and especially with city officials, shows that while they did not necessarily shun formal politics, they understood politics to be a sphere for dialogue and dispute. The sociocultural history of Rio de Janeiro during this period was therefore built precisely through confrontations and negotiations in which the common people played an active role.

In the next few years Brazil will receive the largest sum of investment in urban transport in the history of the country for the coming mega sports events. Theoretically, these investments should address the transport crisis that Brazilian cities are experiencing. The paper shows that the issue of transportation is present on the public agenda and in planning connected with mega events in strictly engineering terms. The ‘question of urban transportation' is introduced and a discussion is given of its connection with the preparation of cities for the mega sports events starting with Rio de Janeiro. Here the huge resources involved will probably have deep impacts on urban dynamics and on the socio-spatial configuration of the city without, however, providing solutions to the long standing transportation problems of the more vulnerable population groups.

Abstract Inspired by the reflections on the concept of critique proposed by Luc Boltanski and Eve Chiapello, this article presents some elements for a sociology of critique of the Pacification Police Unit (Unidade de Polícia Pacificadora - UPPs) program. It offers a brief history of the project, typified in phases. We conduct a mapping and a temporal analysis of critiques made about the UPPs throughout the entire period of their existence from 2008 until today. This analysis is based on ethnographic research and interviews conducted by the authors between 2009 and 2015 in the first two "pacified" favelas in the city of Rio de Janeiro (Santa Marta and the Cidade de Deus), and on the analysis of news reports from the major and alternative media and of social networks.

Insight Into

Soon after the Portuguese made landfall in 1500, Europeans and, later, African slaves introduced leprosy, and Saint Lazarus, the patron saint of its victims, into Brazil. Social and political pressure mounted by the middle of the eighteenth century in the city of Rio de Janeiro to remove those unfortunates from the city's streets even before the move of Brazil's capital in 1763. Frei Antônio, the bishop of Rio, founded the venerable hospital that year in the neighborhood of São Cristóvão. He requested that the Irmandade do Santíssimo Sacramento da Candelária provide oversight and administration. The brotherhood continues to honor its covenant of 239 years ago. The history of this hospital provides insight into the complex relationships that existed between the citizenry and church and state. Rio's leprosy hospital, now the Hospital Frei Antônio, had an important role in the evolution of the health care professions, progress in medical science, and the genesis of the hygienic movement in Brazil. This study also contributes to the history of a disease that persists in 2002 Brazil as a public health issue.
