Reconfiguração do uso do espaço em contexto de arrendamento em um assentamento informal: um estudo entre agregados no bairro Maxaquene B, Cidade de Maputo

Abstract

The present work analyzes the reconfiguration in the use of spaces in the context of lease in an informal settlement between households in the Maxaquene “B” neighborhood in city ​​of Maputo. From the analyzed literature, I understood that there are contexts in which private leases houses to upper middle class people, governments lease houses to helping people on low wages to purchase a home or people who rent parts of their homes to other people. Additionally, I understood the dimension of the relationships that occurs in contexts of lease or coexistence of several families in the same aggregate. In order to deepen this dimension of relationships and the use of space in contexts of leasing in informal settlements, and guided by the idea of ​​Lopes (2010) about reconfiguration as modification of space and social relations, I made a study ethnographic in the context of leasing in an informal settlement between households in the Maxaquene “B” neighborhood in the city of Maputo. The present study, showing informal renting as a means of housing over time and sharing the same space and relationships with the owner, is a reconfiguration in the use of spaces and in the type of relationships established between the members of the households, allowing to deepen the dynamics in the relationships and in the uses of spaces in the daily lease in informal settlements.(TRADUÇÃO NOSSA)
