Resumo: The present article analyzes photographs taken of the favelas in the city of Belo Horizonte from the Favela Extinction Commission. In 1955, this commission was created by the City Mayor, Celso Mello de Azevedo, in order to study and submit a solution for “the problem of the favelas”. The photographs were used in the social analysis reports and in the political rhetoric that justified the creation of a department for the “extinction of favelas” in Belo Horizonte. The images created a dialogue with the urban culture of the state capital, Belo Horizonte, from the perspective of engineers, lawyers and social workers from the Favela Extinction Commission, thereby creating a visuality that thereby justified a certain governability for the issue of favelas in the city.

Em 1955, a Comissão foi criada pelo prefeito Celso Mello de Azevedo para estudar e propor uma solução ao “problema das favelas”. As fotografias foram usadas nos relatórios de análise social e na retórica política que justificava a criação de um órgão para o “desfavelamento” de Belo Horizonte. As imagens dialogavam com a cultura urbana da capital do estado da época, e, com base no olhar de engenheiros, advogados e assistentes sociais da Comissão de Desfavelamento, criavam uma visualidade que justificava certa governabilidade para a questão das favelas na cidade.ANPUR2021-09-04info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://rbeur.anpur.org.br/rbeur/article/view/663510.22296/2317-1529.rbeur.202119ptRevista Brasileira de Estudos Urbanos e Regionais; Vol. 23 (2021): Janeiro-DezembroRevista Brasileira de Estudos Urbanos e Regionais; v. 23 (2021): Janeiro-Dezembro2317-15291517-4115reponame:Revista Brasileira de Estudos Urbanos e Regionais (Online)instname:Associação Nacional de Pós-graduação e Pesquisa em Planejamento Urbano e Regional (ANPUR)instacron:ANPURporenghttps://rbeur.anpur.org.br/rbeur/article/view/6635/5391https://rbeur.anpur.org.br/rbeur/article/view/6635/5392http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOliveira, Samuel Silva Rodrigues de2022-12-01T20:24:33Zoai:ojs.rbeur.anpur.org.br:article/6635Revistahttps://rbeur.anpur.org.br/rbeurONGhttps://rbeur.anpur.org.br/rbeur/oairevista@anpur.org.br2317-15291517-4115opendoar:2022-12-01T20:24:33Revista Brasileira de Estudos Urbanos e Regionais (Online) - Associação Nacional de Pós-graduação e Pesquisa em Planejamento Urbano e Regional (ANPUR)false
