Programa Auxílio-Moradia Emergencial no processo de periferização da população preta e parda de Juiz de Fora

Abstract

This research analyzes the Emergency Housing Assistance Program in the process of peripheralization of the black and brown population of Juiz de Fora, as the main user of this policy. Highlighting the impacts of this program on the dynamics of the concrete lives of residents of the outskirts, who occupy risk areas in Juiz de Fora. This discussion, built on Marxist critical theory, addresses the peripheralization and occupation of risk areas as part of the contradictions of dependent capitalism. As part of this mode of production determined by the resignification and deepening of racism built, in the colonial period, by the logic of value production. This debate, which has as its reference the complex totality of capitalist social relations, without losing sight of the particularities of late capitalism, does not fail to consider social assistance policy in the contradictions of the objective structure that needs to guarantee the socialization of production costs and the appreciation of international and national capital. However, this work highlights the reframing of risks by the Emergency Housing Assistance Program inserted in the complex process of peripheralization (which combines precariousness and resistance) of the population that, historically, has been the most impacted by the precariousness of rights.
