SECTOR POLICIES IN GUARAPUAVA: FROM THE URBAN VALUATION TO THE HOUSING PROBLEM

Abstract

The study analyzes the socio-spatial transformations that housing policies cause in Guarapuava-PR, and how to establish the relationship between mobilization of capital and real estate activity in the segment of the production of housing for low income groups. It is noticed that the unequal distribution of investment capital and the communication of real estate agents with low-income groups, expands the role and the ability of the agents, potentiate private and corporate interests in boosting the production of unequal urban space. The discussion becomes pertinent from what refers to the recognition of the reproduction of social inequalities at new levels, an increasing of social basis of capitalist reproduction, which is solved to produce an uneven everyday life in new spaces that are revealed in a whole as new fringe valuation/ capitalization estate. This process at the same time includes some, but indeed secretes others.
