Das táticas de criação à requalificação do espaço público Rioteca, Vila Santa Luzia, bairro da Torre, Recife-PE

Abstract

This dissertation focuses on the history of the emergence, consolidation and requalification of the RioTeca square and urban library. In a qualitative way, the research analyzes the history of the territory where RioTeca is located, in order to understand the motivations that originated the square, the obstacles in this process and the advances in this action. This required a bibliographical and documental research, application of a questionnaire with the public using the square and interviews with relevant agents. However, the intrinsic relationship between the emergence of RioTeca and the favela Abençoada por Deus was addressed, thus, through the reconstitution of historical events in the area, it is possible to identify and understand urban tactics implemented by the resident who built the square. Consequently, the relationship between RioTeca and the State was analyzed from the process of recognition of this public space, to the process of regularization and requalification of the square, which was carried out by the Recife City Hall.
