description In this paper, we discuss the inclusion of cycling in the mobility agenda of the city of São Paulo as a resistance process in the configuration of the urban space, which is characterized by the road paradigm and the commodification of the territory, in a neoliberal context. Through a qualitative research, which articulates secondary and primary data, we argue that, in São Paulo, there are resistance movements against the private appropriation of the urban space in the field of mobility. We conclude that cyclist activism has played an important role in the circulation of resistance ideas and in tensioning the road paradigm, being one of the elements that explain the insertion of the bicycle in the city, besides the 2013 protests and the election of Fernando Haddad to the City Hall.

Discute-se a formação da agenda de ciclomobilidade em São Paulo/SP enquanto um processo de resistência na configuração do espaço urbano, com raízes profundas e longevas no paradigma rodoviarista, na mercantilização do território, em contexto neoliberal. Por meio de pesquisa qualitativa que articula dados secundários e primários, argumenta-se que, em São Paulo, há movimentos de resistência ao processo de apropriação privada do espaço urbano no campo da mobilidade. Conclui-se que o ciclo-ativismo tem cumprido um papel importante na circulação de ideias de resistência e no tensionamento do paradigma rodoviarista, sendo um dos elementos que explicam a inserção da bicicleta na cidade, além do ciclo de manifestações de 2013 e a eleição de Fernando Haddad à prefeitura. 2019-08-28 2022-03-17T19:06:03Z 2022-03-17T19:06:03Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/2236-9996.2019-4609 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/53729 por https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/2236-9996.2019-4609/pdf Copyright (c) 2019 Cadernos Metrópole. application/pdf Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo Cadernos Metrópole; Vol. 21 Núm. 46 (2019): O ativismo urbano contemporâneo: resistências e insurgências à ordem urbana neoliberal; 879-902 Cadernos Metrópole; v. 21 n. 46 (2019): O ativismo urbano contemporâneo: resistências e insurgências à ordem urbana neoliberal; 879-902 2236-9996 1517-2422
