description What is the role of public participation in statesanctioned participatory spaces in the production of cities in contemporary Brazil? This paper discusses the practices of urban social movements that use state-sanctioned participatory spaces to fight against the (re)production of urban inequality. Specifically, we study the case of the homeless movements in Downtown São Paulo and their relationship to the state in their struggle for the right to housing. The practices developed by these movements show that critical action towards the state, although limited, has been crucial to further the agenda of social housing in Downtown São Paulo. Based on this case, we identify how other popular organizations can use critical state-sanctioned participation to advance social and spatial justice agendas.

Qual o papel da participação social junto ao Estado na produção das cidades no Brasil contemporâneo? Neste artigo, discutimos as práticas de movimentos sociais urbanos que utilizam a luta institucional como forma de combater a (re)produção da desigualdade urbana. Especificamente, estudamos o caso dos movimentos de sem-teto do Centro de São Paulo e sua relação com o Estado na luta pelo direito à moradia. A prática desses movimentos mostra que a atuação crítica junto ao Estado, ainda que possua limites, é crucial para fazer a agenda de moradia social no Centro avançar. A partir desse caso, identificamos alguns caminhos para a consolidação de pautas de justiça socioespacial por meio da política institucional que podem ser adotados por outras organizações populares. 2021-05-20 2022-03-17T19:06:04Z 2022-03-17T19:06:04Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/2236-9996.2021-5111 10.1590/2236-9996.2021-5111 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/53747 por https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/2236-9996.2021-5111/35348 Copyright (c) 2021 Cadernos Metrópole. application/pdf Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo Cadernos Metrópole; Vol. 23 Núm. 51 (2021): geografia do ressentimento; 697-716 Cadernos Metrópole; v. 23 n. 51 (2021): geografia do ressentimento; 697-716 2236-9996 1517-2422
