Do invisível ao insurgente: planejamento da paisagem a partir da experiência territorial

Abstract

Throughout the history of city development, planning has often been represented as the voice of reason in modern society. However, over time, this romanticized view of planning began to be confronted, based on the understanding of different invisible agents and factors exogenous to the planner in the construction of democratic urban landscapes. In this sense, the problem that guides the research is the understanding that traditional planning models are not capable of responding efficiently to territorialized social demands, sometimes due to the real lack of knowledge of the problems and sometimes due to faulty territorial management, especially in urban informality contexts. As a way to better understand this scenario, an investigation was sought into the role that different planning models assume in the maintenance and reproduction of subordinate urban spaces. In addition, as a way of proving the research hypothesis, the Pici territory was defined as an analytical cut, being studied its formation context, obstacles faced over the last few years, and previous planning experiences developed in the territory. Finally, as a result, the present work presents a framework of action guidelines for the settlement worked on, relating the territorial issues raised to the spatialized intervention proposals in the study area, as a way of strengthening community struggles by recognizing the role of landscape planning as an exercise for local popular empowerment
