Considering the phenomenon of informal settlements and the emergence of new urban occupations in Belo Horizonte Metropolitan Area (RMBH) in the last decade, this paper aims to demonstrate that concrete social struggle for urban reform and the exercise of the fundamental right to adequate housing is not restricted to economic redistribution of goods, but should be understood as seeking recognition in the sense of Hegel and Honneth. To address the phenomenon of urban occupations described above, the research employed the socio-legal catography procedure, anchored in action-research methodology. In order to construct the conceptual social maps in the communities studied between 2013-2015 (Dandara e Camilo Torres), several methodological techniques were used, such as: legal and social bibliographical data collection, visits, immersions, interviews, social cartography workshops and confection and discussion of booklets containing the results of the researches carried out. Two important features were observed in the occupations studied: the permanent engagement of the social groups and the improvement of the practical self-relation of the members of the community. The main contribution of the paper was to show that, through their struggle, dwellers came to have their value recognized as subjects entitled to rights. They also increasingly have their axiological world view adopted by legal and administrative institutions, overcoming part of their social and spatial exclusion.
