| Abstract | |
This master\'s dissertation brings together the results of an ethnographic research carried out in a housing occupation in the city center of São Paulo, with the aim of investigating the societal effects of mass incarceration. By following the trajectories of residents of this type of popular housing who have been imprisoned and/or have family members imprisoned, the work proposes an articulation in the ways of observing these two central dimensions of contemporary urban life: housing and imprisonment. The focus is on the effects produced by prison experience on the research subjects\' journeys and on their housing conditions, verifiable in the dimension of everyday life. This work also highlights the prolonged effects of imprisonment beyond the time of confinement, perpetuated in life on the streets and expanded by urban territorialities. It is also important to understand the updated ways in which the state manages these territories, intensifying the use of penal and police tactics to control their inhabitants. On the other hand, the content includes as well the strategies adopted by the occupants in search of escape routes. By drawing attention to the interlocution between these two problems, which are usually treated separately, the research points to the pertinence of the political articulation between the struggle for housing and against prisons, as well as between the academic fields of studies on the popular appropriation of urban space and on the societal effects of incarceration (AU) | |
