A Via Light e a “Queda dos Muros” em Nova Iguaçu

Abstract

This paper analyzes the possibility to investigate the urban environment through a stroll down Via Light in the city of Nova Iguaçu, chosen as the reference element and act as trail which states globalization. This city tour is to collect the images that illustrate their spaces of abandonment, charity, poverty, urban growth, public investment and others to approach the reflection of the dialectical utopianism presented in the book by David Harvey Spaces of Hope. The completion of the construction of Via Light in Nova Iguaçu will serve as a crossing, allowing us to investigate the object of research: processes of sociability in built in Via Light for social cohesion in order to capture the challenges of the contemporary embodiment of utopianism
