| Abstract | |
At the beginning of the XX century, the city of São Paulo passed through several embellishment projects and urban improvements in an attempt to adapt to the demanded modernity of the time: thus, moving from being known as coffee\'s metropolis to a big urbanized and sanitized city. In this context, several people who lived in and at the city ended up becoming marginalized and invisible due to exclusion policies, that were mainly being enforced downtown. Although the public authorities aimed for the expulsion of these unwanted people from downtown to the suburbs, many of them resisted and proceeded with their lives despite public policies. It is within this context that drunks, bar owners, prostitutes, and women victims of femicide appear, searching to maintainactive their existence in their city. We seek, through urbanization studies and urban history, to illustrate how these people lived and resisted various forms of control imposed by the city against them. Therefore, this thesis investigates how those excluded from history remained in the region that public authorities sought to reform and sanitize. To that end, we appoint the time known between 1905, demolition date of \"Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Rosário dos Homens Pretos\", up to 1938, publication date of \"Relatório sobre os Divertimentos Públicos\", of the Capital Culture Department.
