RESUMO:

The city of Natal, like other cities in Brazil, has different patterns of use and occupation of its urban space. These differences are evidenced by the different types of land use and occupation and bring light to the division of the city into formal and informal spaces. Housing problems, closely linked to this division, are manifested by the emergence of favelas and other precarious forms of housing, namely clandestine subdivisions, irregular occupations and degraded housing complexes. Housing inadequacy, characterized by lack of adequate infrastructure, high population density and land irregularity, is present in the four regions of the city (North, South, East and West). However, over the last two decades, important transformations have taken place in the urban setting of Natal, especially in favela areas. Interventions carried out in parts of the territory where these poverty structures existed (and still exist) had as their background the decades-long context of socio-spatial division of the city. In the period that covers the decades of 2000 and 2010, 17 favelas in Natal have undergone some type of intervention, be it removal and resettlement, or urbanization. In this context, this research, which consists of an empirical-descriptive study, aims, in a general way, to analyze the implementation of social housing public policies that concern the removal, resettlement and urbanization of favelas and other forms of precarious settlements in the city, seeking to investigate the projects implemented in the municipality; identify how the practices of public power are integrated with the public policy planning implemented; and to know the effects of these policies on the urban space of the city. Throughout the research, interviews were conducted with the actors involved in the actions. Institutional documents such as plans, projects and diagnoses, were also analyzed, as well as journalistic articles, which reported the interventions of the public power in the favelas. The results of the research point to a possible improvement in the housing conditions of the population targeted for removals, resettlement and urbanization, but on the other hand they indicate signs of the reproduction of the segregation pattern of the poor in the city, a phenomenon that has historically been present in the urban configuration.
