Abstract

This study aims to analyse sociologically the process involved into the production of urban space in Hortolândia, which is associated to the growth and structuring of the Metropolitan Region of Campinas. We choose this metropolis due to its populational importance, economic relevance in paulista scenery and singular formation due to the moment of its emergence. In this region, Hortolândia is pointed out because, besides its precarious urban infra-structure and by receiving important industries, it is one of the biggest receptors of migrants, by presenting a disperse spatial and rarefied configuration. The comprehension of the production of its urban space should consider the recent social, political and economic history. Moreover, we introduce in the urban space the perspective of production process of spatial mobility, once we believe if the social relationships produce the space (and, concomitantly, are influenced by its), also, the urban dynamic influences and induces the spatial mobility; which changes or reinforces the spatial production standards. Therefore, we utilize data of demographics census concerned to the population profile and the habitations characters, by showing the restrict tendencies related to the production of urban space. We tried, thus, to develop a debate where different process have being considered, by permitting the comprehension to the signification of the building space and its characters, like concrete data of the social reality (economic, political, ideological, quotidian) and, also, like a reality into transformation (AU)
