This work provides an analysis of the process of urban restructuring in the city of Niterói since the 1970 s, specifically with regard to the northern government region, where Cubango and Viçoso Jardim neighborhoods are located. The intention is to verify the ideological and practical basis which has resulted in Niteroi, as a city, being characterized by its "quality of life". This reflects the recent social imagery of the city. The emphasis in this process contributed to higher instances of socio-environmental vulnerability and risk in Cubango and Viçoso Jardim districts, especially regarding the disposal of solid waste in the garbage dumps ("Lixoes"), which historically have been located in this region. In this sense, the hypothesis that we draw in this research is that the actions and negligence of government, which may be categorized as a group of assisted absences, became responsible for the expansion of risk factors and vulnerabilities that culminated in the Morro do Bumba tragedy on 07/04/2010.
