This new corporal urban practice, native of France, is been gaining adepts from worldwide, especially after the emergence of video hosting sites on the internet. This study aims to provide a brief historical about the relationship between body and city, using the urban leisure as a point. For this, pretends to present the specificities of Parkour in this context. By historicizing the emergency of this news practices, intend to defend the hypothesis that they are marked by the passage of disciplinary society to control society. Finally, the study pretends to use the idea of ludic construction of the city in contrast to the notion of appropriation of urban space. (AU) | |
