- The four youths facing the expansion of secondary enrolment and higher education: studying, working, finding yourself., AV.EXT
Abstract
In 2021, during a period of confinement due to the Covid-19 epidemic, we carried out an exploratory study of young people aged 18 to 24, from different social groups, based on four categories proposed by ECLAC: young people who only study, those who only work, those who study and work and those who neither study nor work. Is this classification enough to grasp the strong social inequaliti…

- Between Natural Heritage and Concessions in the State of São Paulo: Psychosphere and Public Policy, BP.DR
Abstract
All over the world, and in various sectors, there is an expansion of so-called neoliberalizing policies, a process that is also putting pressure on legally protected natural areas. Currently, areas that for decades have been managed by the public authorities have been transferred to the private sector through models such as concessions. Although they occur in small parts of protected area…

- Social cooperation as a critique of duty: exploring the boundaries of a cosmopolitan approach to fight against poverty, BP.MS
Abstract
One way to understand contemporary analyses of poverty is through the lens of political philosophy, which has largely favored normative approaches, often overlooking important elements within social dynamics. Thomas Pogge, one of the most relevant contemporary theorists in this field, proposes a cosmopolitan thesis to combat global poverty, based on human rights and the negative duty of j…

Through this perspective, the current study will focus on the reality of the Amazon, specifically the …

- PERIPHERIES OF INVISIBLE WALLS: unequal (im)mobility and spatial segregation by class and race in the metropolis of São Paulo, BE.PQ
Abstract
The most current growth of the metropolises of the global south has revealed intense spatial inequalities and urban poverty on its peripheries. In the metropolis of São Paulo, typical of a peripheral country like Brazil, this is a reality still quite evident, but without consensus in the most recent academic research. Thus, this research project aims to understand the formation of the per…
- Globalization and Modernized Agriculture: The Socio-Spatial and Environmental Implications of the Expansion of Globalized Agribusiness in the Brazilian Cerrado, BE.EP.DR
Abstract
Since the 1960s, the development of globalized agribusiness has been characterized as a conservative modernization of agriculture. However, due to the fact that this production model is based on technical, economic, social and land inequalities, we can argue that this modernization is also socially unequal and especially selective. In other words, only those agents who have the level of c…
- MOVEMENTS IN MOTION: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE ACTIONS OF ARGENTINE AND BRAZILIAN URBAN SOCIO-SPATIAL AND SOCIO-TERRITORIAL MOVEMENTS BETWEEN 2022 AND 2024, BE.EP.DR
Abstract
The socio-spatial and socio-territorial movements in Brazil and Argentina emerge as fundamental organizations in the struggle for the right to the city and territory, revealing the deep conflicts inherent in urban space production. Rooted in contexts of neoliberalization of urban and territorial policies, these movements face processes of segregation, forced evictions, and land commodific…
