Esse ensaio objetiva contribuir com os estudos acerca das articulações entre o comércio e a cidade, na medida em que o aparecimento de novas formas comerciais tem um rebatimento no processo de produção do espaço urbano. O funcionamento, as relações sociais, as mercadorias, os movimentos interno e externo, e tudo aquilo que dá vida aos mercados, feiras e outros tipos de comércio ditos tradicionais, são cada vez mais atrativos ao ponto de se tornarem, hoje, no diferente, que resiste em meio ao que se tornou homogêneo, tais como as formas que abrigam o denominado comércio moderno, a exemplo dos shopping centers. Essa dinâmica do comércio motivou uma pesquisa em andamento, sobre o papel dos mercados, das feiras, das mercearias, das galerias e diversos outros tipos de comércio no espaço urbano, os quais, historicamente, incorrem em mudanças espaciais. O ponto de partida das análises são os mercados e as feiras sobrevivendo em meio à pressão do crescimento da metrópole, uma vez transformados em centros de lazer (culturais, gastronômicos, turísticos, etc.). O texto privilegia a primeira parte da pesquisa, sistematizando um levantamento de fontes bibliográficas/teóricas, especialmente aquelas relacionadas ao desenvolvimento histórico do comércio, do desdobramento das trocas comerciais que, aos poucos, exigem abrigos para o funcionamento permanente na cidade. Abstract THE COMMERCE AND THE PRODUCTION OF THE URBAN SPACE The objective of this article is to contribute with the studies concerning the joints between commerce and city in the measure where the appearance of new commercial forms has an striking in the process of production of the urban space. Functioning, relations social, merchandises, movements internal and external, and everything what of the life to the traditional markets, fairs and other said types of commerce, they are each time more attractive to the point of if becoming, today, in different, that it resists in way what if became homogeneous, the such as the forms that shelters the called modern commerce, as shopping centers. This dynamics of the commerce motivated a in progress research, which comes studying the paper of the markets, the fairs, the grocery, the diverse galleries and other types of commerce, which, historically, they incur into changes in the city. The starting point of the analyses is the markets and the fairs surviving in way to the pressure it growth of the metropolis, a time transformed into leisure centers (cultural, gastronomical, tourist, etc.). The text privileges the first part of the research; systemize a survey of bibliographical sources/theoreticians, especially to those related to the historical development of the commerce, of the unfolding of the commercial exchanges that, to the few, demand shelters for the permanent functioning in the city.

O texto compreende uma discussão sobre o processo de modernização na cidade de Porto Alegre em vários momentos de sua história, articulando as transformações e modificações havidas no espaço urbano com uma paralela segregação social operada e/ou desejada na cidade. São recolhidos vários exemplos para demonstrar a vontade de se construir uma “cidade una”, na qual não se admite o convívio com os indesejados sociais. A combinação modernização/exclusão social, tantas vezes já abordada em diversos estudos da historiografia brasileira, encontra neste artigo mais um exercício de aproximação, a partir do qual pode-se vislumbrar momentos distintos – sem traçar uma linha de continuidade – desta operação específica da modernidade. Abstract The text discusses the process of modernization in the city of Porto Alegre during various moments of its history, debating both transformations and modifications in the city’s urban space along with a social segregation that was either going on or being wished for at that time. Many exemples are given so as to demonstrate the desire to build a “united city” in which those who were socially unwished were not allowed. The combination of modernization with social exclusion, so often discussed in many other studies of Brazilian history, is shown in this article as another approach to the issue of modernization with its distinct moments.

The purpose of this study was to analyze guerrilla gardening’s relationship to urban space and contemporary notions of sustainability. To achieve this two case studies of urban agriculture, one of guerrilla gardening and one of community gardening were developed. Through this comparison, guerrilla gardening was framed as a method of spatial intervention, drawing in notions of spatial justice and the right to the city as initially theorized by Henri Lefebvre. The guerrilla gardening case study focuses on Dig Kingston, a project started by the researcher in June of 2010, and the community gardening case study will use the Oak Street Garden, the longest standing community garden in Kingston. The community gardening case study used content analysis and semi-structured long format interviews with relevant actors. The guerrilla gardening case study consisted primarily of action based research as well as content analysis and semi-structured long format interviews. By contributing to the small, but growing, number of accounts and research on guerrilla gardening this study can be used as a starting point to look into other forms of spatial intervention and how they relate to urban space and social relations. Furthermore, through the discussion of guerrilla gardening in an academic manner more legitimacy and weight will be given to it as a method of urban agriculture and interventionist tactic. On a wider scale, perhaps it could even contribute to answering the question of how we (as a society) can transform our cities and reengage in urban space.

A produção do espaço urbano em bacias hidrográficas constitui a problemática ambiental dos rios urbanos, já que os rios são negados pela expansão da malha urbana na medida em que suas margens são ocupadas arbitrariamente. Trata-se de um tema de interesse para os pesquisadores que se dedicam ao estudo da urbanização, processo que quase sempre é marcado por sérios problemas ambientais. Diante desse contexto, a ideia desta pesquisa é analisar a problemática ambiental urbana decorrente da ocupação irregular das margens do Riacho da Prata, visando identificar sua origem, as áreas de vulnerabilidade socioambiental e os possíveis riscos ambientais para moradores ribeirinhos da cidade de Lajedo – PE. Esta pesquisa parte de um viés crítico dialético, através da pesquisa documental, bibliográfica, histórica e de campo. Ao final da pesquisa constatou-se que o Riacho da Prata foi negado pelo processo de crescimento urbano alavancado desde a década de 1960, e por isso se encontra sem vegetação ciliar, assoreado e poluído. Enquanto a população residente em suas margens, isto é, em áreas de risco ambiental, onde desenvolve diversas práticas sócio-espaciais que degradam o rio, e que ao mesmo tempo podem comprometê-las nos que se refere à saúde: são elas: criação de animais, crianças brincando nas margens do rio, acúmulo de lixo nas margens e/ou no leito do rio, dentre outras. Além disso, percebeu-se que as comunidades mais pobres são mais vulneráveis aos riscos ambientais, tanto pela escassez de infra-estrutura básica, como pela menor capacidade de se proteger contra algum desastre, como uma inundação.Palavras - chave: Problemática ambiental, Rios urbanos, Riacho da Prata, Vulnerabilidade, Risco Ambiental. Environmental Problems of Urban Rivers: Vulnerabilities and Risks on the Banks of the Silver Creek in the City of Lajedo-PE ABSTRACTThe production of urban space in watersheds is the environmental issue of urban rivers, as the rivers are denied by the expansion of the urban fabric in that its banks are occupied arbitrarily. This is a topic of interest to researchers who are dedicated to the study of urbanization, a process that is often marked by serious environmental problems. In this context, the idea of this research is to analyze the environmental problems caused by urban irregular occupation of the shores of Silver Creek, to identify their origin, areas of environmental vulnerability and potential environmental risks to residents bordering the city of Lajedo - PE. This research starts from a critical dialectical bias through desk research, literature, and historical field. At the end of the study it was found that the Silver Creek was denied by the process of urban growth leveraged since the 1960s, so it is no riparian vegetation, silted and polluted. While the resident population on its banks, that is, in areas of environmental risk, which develops various socio-spatial practices that degrade the river, and at the same time may compromise them in relation to health: they are: creating animals, children playing on the banks of the river, accumulation of garbage in the margins and / or in the riverbed, among others. Moreover, it was noticed that the poorest communities are more vulnerable to environmental risks, both by the lack of basic infrastructure, such as poorer ability to protect against a disaster, like a flood.Keywords: Environmental Issues, Urban Rivers, Silver Creek, Vulnerability, Environmental Risk.

This paper discusses the literary, artistic, scientific, and educational narratives that are (re)created to facilitate the city’s recovery of memory in the wake of the Holocaust.This is the case with Lublin.The story of the complete destruction of its Jewish quarter in the Second World War is a tragically familiar one in Central Europe, even though it had been silenced and forgotten for decades during the communist period. I would like to analyze an essayistic project that searches for a new language about a place left empty. How could one fill the void by making it mean something to new people, becoming their own narrative, and preserving the presence of the city’s former inhabitants? How is it possible to create a new mythology of a place? I assume that such questions must have been the starting point for essays on Lublin byWładysław Panas (1947–2005), related to the commemoration in the context of urban space. My text comes in four parts. I begin with general information and historical background, as well as an introduction to the analysis of Panas’s essay Oko Cadyka (The Eye of the Tzaddik) − the main subject of my paper − which exemplifies the reflection on the creation of narrative and urban space in contemporary humanities. In the second part, I focus on and contextualize the relationship between text and city that the essay postulates. The third part deals with theoretical approaches to interpretation. The fourth part underlines the scientific and critical aspects of Panas’s text, which questions the language of science − the humanities, historiography, and theory in general. I end with a look at some artistic projects inspired by his images.

Understanding the specificity of communication behaviour of individual groups of participants of the transport system is one of the most important areas of interest of urban logistics. An important problem to be solved on this occasion is to indicate the most important factors and determinants that determine the manner of displacements. Determining how these conditions change depending on the age of people carrying out urban sprawl can be the starting point for the development of an appropriate organizational offer of the transport system in the city. One of the more numerous groups moving in cities are high school students and students. For this reason, the goal set for the implementation was to learn the specificity of communication behaviour of students and students. The decisive factors in the selection of displacements to and from school / university and other dis-placements performed in the urban space have been determined on the basis of a pilot survey carried out in Radom. The obtained results and their analysis are presented in this article.

From ancient times, some spaces have been understood to be more sacred than others. Even though many of these spaces have no specific religious meaning, there have been new religious movements which can easily be seen in daily life. In order to understand the current dynamics of religion, a focus on the material presence of religion (religious buildings, sites and artefacts in urban spaces) is a fruitful starting point. Thus, the objective of this study is to explore the potential meanings of the sacred in urban spaces, and the effects of these meanings or characterizations of the sacred have on places. Moreover, the focus is on analysing new manifestations of the religious and the sacred in urban space, as well as the ways in which material traces mediate diverse practices, discourses and effects in the various domains of the sacred. By investigating the alignments of these two fields, the city and the sacred, this study sheds new light on the metropolis of London, which manifests both religious diversity and multiple modernities via traces of the sacred in urban spaces. The results show that sacred traces in urban places have a prominent image that many residents and visitors fail to appreciate in their daily lives. The study concludes with a discussion of findings and implications.

Dans les politiques de la ville en France, les personnes à mobilité réduite font l’objet d’une attention particulière. Comment se rendre en ville, circuler, rejoindre différents bâtiments éloignés les uns des autres? Avancer dans l’espace est une condition essentielle de l’Homme, lui permettant de se déplacer, certes, mais aussi de rêver ou de réfléchir. Pour les personnes à mobilité réduite, aller d’un lieu à un autre étant difficile, la mobilité se réduit souvent à de petits trajets, dans des actions où domine l’obligation et non le plaisir. Avoir accès à l’espace urbain au sens large du terme, permettre aux individus de se déplacer librement en évoluant dans un environnement approprié représente donc un enjeu politique qui intéresse les sociologues, les urbanistes... et les designers. Cheminer implique non seulement d’avoir des lieux sans trop d’obstacles, mais également de pouvoir faire des haltes tout au long du parcours. L’étude présentée ici se penche sur la possibilité d’instaurer des repères fixes grâce à des lieux d’assise répartis dans l’espace de la cité afin que les personnes à mobilité réduite puissent non seulement se reposer, mais aussi procéder par étapes lorsqu’elles se rendent loin de chez elles et/ou dans des lieux différents. In urban political agendas in France, people with reduced mobility are given special attention. How can they get to the city, go around, and reach different buildings that may be far from each other? Moving around is an essential condition of mankind, which makes it possible to go somewhere, of course, but also to dream or reflect about things. For people with reduced mobility, moving from one place to another is difficult, and mobility is often reduced to small trips often dictated by obligation rather than pleasure. Having access to urban space in the broadest sense of the term, allowing individuals to move freely while at the same time evolving in an appropriate environment is therefore a political issue of interest for sociologists, town planners, and designers. Finding one’s way implies not only reaching places without encountering too many obstacles, but also being able to make stops all along the route. The study presented here examines the possibility of establishing fixed landmarks by means of seating spots distributed throughout the city so that people with reduced mobility can not only rest, but also proceed step by step going from one place to the next.

Este trabalho analisa o objeto do olhar a cidade do Recife-PE e as suas características espaciais e sociais a partir da perspectiva antropológica e fílmica. A discussão tem como ponto de partida a questão de documentar e ficcionalizar a cidade por meio das narrativas fílmicas do espaço urbano, e também de como o olhar sobre a cidade pode ser analisada através da ótica espacial e fílmica. Considera-se, portanto, os arranjos espaciais, imagéticos, identitários e estéticos presentes no âmbito urbano para então discursar acerca do problema central deste trabalho: os olhares fílmicos construídos da cidade do Recife-PE por meio das narrativas fílmicas dos curtas-metragens pernambucanos. Dessa indagação parte-se às contribuições do imaginário urbano, da memória e da identidade como elementos que constituem a construção do olhar para a cidade.Palavras-chave: Olhares fílmicos. Cidade. Recife-PE.Memories, narrative policies and dicotomies of the city: Film Looks on Recife-PE    AbstractThis work analyzes the object of the look at the city of Recife-PE and its spatial and social characteristics from an anthropological and film perspective. The discussion has as its starting point the question of documenting and fictionalizing the city through the film narratives of urban space, as well as how the view of the city can be analyzed through space and film optics. The spatial, imaginary, identity, and aesthetic arrangements present in the urban context are then considered, and the discourse about the central problem of this work is considered: the film-based views constructed from the city of Recife-PE through the film narratives of Pernambucan short films. From this question we start with the contributions of the urban imaginary, memory and identity as elements that constitute the construction of the look for the city.Keywords: Film looks. City. Recife-PE.
