Resumo: O trabalho fala dos cotidianos de pessoas que passam pelo rótulo morador de rua. Por meio de uma etnografia numa praia do Rio de Janeiro, descrevo alguns espaços de convívio e, a partir dos mesmos, me inspiro a pensar alguns elementos daquela realidade, levando em conta a imensa complexidade que os movimentos da rua impõem à qualquer proposta reflexiva. Além disso, desenvolvo minha relação com campo em meio ao fazer musical. Explorando, assim, o conteúdo das músicas cantadas em campo e os exercícios coletivos de cantá-las. Isto permitiu dar importância ao movimento, que é um aspecto chave nestas reflexões. Por meio da categoria Exu – desenvolvida em religiões afro-brasileiras –, e alguns autores do interacionismo simbólico, entendo o morador de rua enquanto uma dimensão relacional. A partir daí é possível refletir sobre as condições na rua, a produção de conhecimentos derivados delas e a importância disso no exercício de recriação da cidade do Rio de Janeiro e seus espaços públicos. Palavras chave: morador de rua. Exu. morte. cotidiano. música   PRAIA DA AMENDOEIRA:STREET LIFE ON A CARIOCA BEACH  Abstract: The work talks about the daily lives of people who pass under the label homeless. Through an ethnography on a beach in Rio de Janeiro, I describe some living spaces and, from them, I get inspired to think about some elements of that reality, taking into account the immense complexity that street movements impose on any reflective proposal. In addition, I develop my relationship with the field in the middle of making music. Thus exploring the content of the songs sung in the field and the collective exercises of singing them. This allowed to give importance to the movement, which is a key aspect in these reflections. Through the category Exu - developed in Afro-Brazilian religions - and some authors of symbolic interactionism, I understand the homeless person as a relational dimension. From there, it is possible to reflect on the conditions on the street, the production of knowledge derived from them and the importance of this in the exercise of recreating the city of Rio de Janeiro and its public spaces.Keywords: homeless. Exu. death. daily life. music

This chapter addresses how homeless people navigate bureaucracy. It shows how social institutions, in addition to providing needed functions and services, help to construct what it feels like to be homeless. There are six characteristics of a bureaucracy. First, it is courteous but impersonal. The impersonality of the modern bureaucracy was designed in service of fairness and impartiality; it was intended to counter favoritism. Bureaucracy is also run according to written records and it is hierarchical. Another feature of bureaucratic institutions is rules and regulations. Even for those skilled in navigating the bureaucracy, there is something crazy-making about the structures that most homeless must inhabit. So much of one's life circumstances as a homeless person seeking help is a Catch-22, the term coined to describe what bureaucracies do to people. Its formal definition is this: a dilemma or difficult circumstance from which there is no escape because of mutually conflicting or dependent conditions.

Analysis of the causes of homelessness and attempts to change their situation among homeless people with higher education are the purpose of the presented article. Losing home among people with higher education is not a common topic of research and analysis. In society, a homeless person is associated rather with an uneducated person. In order to analyze the reasons, the general situation and actions taken to overcome homelessness, five individual in-depth interviews with homeless men from the Mazovia region were carried out. All respondents completed university studies. Among the respondents, the main causes of homelessness are addictions and conflicts in marriage. The respondents admit that it is difficult for them to improve their situation, especially in terms of raising professional qualifications. They have education, so they mostly wonder what other actions they could take. Completed studies show that leaving homelessness, even with a university degree, is not easy. There is no effective system of help for homeless people in this group of people – they are offered jobs or courses and training definitely not corresponding to their possibilities and education.

Informal homelessness or, as Centrepoint describe, ‘the hidden homeless’ includes young people who may sleep on their friends’ or extended family’s couches or floor. They estimate that 103,000 people aged 16–24 in the United Kingdom presented to their Local Authority in 2017–2018 as being or at risk of being homeless. A proportion of young people who experience homelessness rely on their own resources rather than approaching their Local Authority for support. There are a number of barriers that make it harder for any homeless person to access services to enhance their emotional well-being. If a young homeless person presents at a hospital, there is an opportunity for them to be directed to the appropriate support required. This is even more critical when young people have an identified mental health need. The authors will outline ways in which hospital practitioners can support adolescents who are sofa surfing and who have an identified mental health need, to receive community-based support when planning for discharge from hospital.

O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever sobre a pessoa em situação de rua, desigualdade social e pobreza, baseado na falta ou ineficiência do Estado em propor políticas públicas eficazes. Realizou-se um levantamento da produção científica publicadas a partir de 2009, nas bases de dados da SCIELO, LATINDEX, REDALYC, LILACS, pela escassez ainda de literatura sobre o assunto, foram também utilizadas, dissertação, anais, livros, TCC e decretos. No Brasil a desigualdade já se tornou histórica, desde o tempo colonial, a situação de rua é um assunto que se trata por diferentes políticas públicas. As pessoas que vivenciam a situação de rua vem acrescentado por diferentes causas, tais como: condição de pobreza, desemprego estrutural, migração, estado de conflitos familiares, entre outros. Viver em situação de rua é um enigma, não só social, mas de saúde pública. Conclui-se que a pessoa em situação de rua convive em uma espécie de pobreza ou extrema pobreza, miséria e exclusão social com prejuízo progressivo da condição de vida e sofrem com a negatividade do Estado dos seus direitos fundamentais.Descritores: Pessoa em Situação de Rua, Desigualdade Social, Pobreza e Políticas Públicas. People in the street situation and social inequality: a public policy issueAbstract: The aim of this study was to describe the homeless person, social inequality and poverty, based on the State's lack or inefficiency in proposing effective public policies. A survey of the scientific production published from 2009, in the databases of SCIELO, LATINDEX, REDALYC, LILACS, due to the lack of literature on the subject, were also used, dissertation, annals, books, TCC and decrees. In Brazil, inequality has already become historical, since colonial times, the street situation is a matter that is dealt with by different public policies. People who experience homelessness have been added by different causes, such as: poverty condition, structural unemployment, migration, family conflict status, among others. Living on the streets is not only a social but a public health conundrum. It is concluded that the homeless person lives in a kind of poverty or extreme poverty, misery and social exclusion with progressive loss of living conditions and suffer from the negativity of the State of their fundamental rights.Descriptors: Homeless People, Social Inequality, Poverty and Public Policy. Persona en la situación de la calle y desigualdad social: un problema de política públicaResumen: El objetivo de este estudio fue describir a las personas sin hogar, la desigualdad social y la pobreza, en función de la falta o ineficiencia del Estado al proponer políticas públicas efectivas. También se utilizó una encuesta sobre la producción científica publicada desde 2009, en las bases de datos de SCIELO, LATINDEX, REDALYC, LILACS, debido a la falta de literatura sobre el tema, dissertación, anales, libros, TCC y decretos. En Brasil, la desigualdad ya se ha vuelto histórica, desde la época de la colonia, la situación de la calle es un asunto que se aborda con diferentes políticas públicas. Las personas que experimentan la falta de vivienda han sido agregadas por diferentes causas, tales como: condición de pobreza, desempleo estructural, migración, situación de conflicto familiar, entre otras. Vivir en la calle no es solo un enigma social sino también de salud pública. Se concluye que la persona sin hogar vive en una especie de pobreza o extrema pobreza, miseria y exclusión social con pérdida progresiva de las condiciones de vida y sufre la negatividad del Estado de sus derechos fundamentales.Descriptores: Personas sin hogar, Desigualdad social, Pobreza y Políticas Públicas.
