| Sumario: | At the beginning of the third decade of the 21st century, the Brazilian urban and housing context is founded on a paradoxical tripod: a significant public production of new housing units; a persistent housing deficit, concentrated in the lower income strata; and a significant number of vacant households. Despite the enormous normative improvement represented by the 1988 Constitution and the City Statute (2001), access to land for the low-income population continues almost exclusively through self-built or rented housing in precarious peripheral settlements, tenements and slums. This paper aims to present and analyse the reality of four squatters located in São Paulo city centre. The occupation of vacant buildings by organized housing movements has been a recurring practice in large Brazilian cities, both as a way of pressuring the public authorities and as a way of access housing in a central area feasible, albeit in a precarious way. The analyses seeks to point out current challenges, in a time of intense political and social intolerance, of threat to popular movements, of the struggle for housing and for the right to the city by the low-income population in the largest Brazilian city. |
