| dc.description.abstract | The development of alternative projects, utilizing technical language and instruments, has been a resource used by urban social movements in its struggle for the city at least since the 1960’s. Through counter proposals, organized groups contest real estate projects and urban interventions that threat poor families of displacement. In the Brazil of the 21st century, social conflicts triggered by urban interventions related to mega sports events, are giving rise to autonomous organizations. From outside of the government, and questioning it’s practices, they elaborate alternative proposals. This paper intends to discuss surveyed cases of autonomous planning practices in the context of social conflicts, in contemporary Brazil, in dialogue with the academic literature on progressive, radical, insurgent and alternative planning experiences in central countries (or the Global North) Community planning arises as a strategy to face real estate and official urban renewal projects, which threatened poor communities of displacement, in context of the civil rights movement in the United States (ANGOTTI, 2008). Also from North America, and as result of community planning experiences, radical planning emerges in association with social transformation claims (FRIEDMANN, 1987). Recently, in the 1990’s and 2000’s, reflections on insurgent and progressive planning bring to the present such discussions (SANDERCOCK, 1998; MIRAFTAB, 2009; BEARD, 2003). Since the 1970’s in Brazil, technical advisory offices have supported urban social movements in the development of social housing projects, to face economic and political powers in their struggle for the right to the city (BONDUKI, 2011; USINA, 2008). | |
