This thesis analyzes processes of social transformations lived by the young people from the urban periphery of Uberlândia in the past two decades. The periodization between 1990 and 2016 it is effective as a thought of some processes of change referring to the constitution of social projects and achievement of rights that involves youths. In the quest to understand those processes it has been analyzed several types of documents, such as local newspapers, laws, official publications and 21 century researches about themes and problems related to Brazilian youth. Besides interviews were made (with video resource) with young people that participate of public places occupation. Those interviews were articulated with the other evidences as a way to understand the relation between these young people, public space, rights, social experiences and the city. In dialogue with research sources were possible to verify a city lived by the young deeply marked by differences, inequality, exclusion and segregation. However, even in the limits of these power relationships, in the middle between memory, experiences and history, a series of public places occupation practices reveals themselves as revindications, rights and/or affirmation fights in the city. Some of the practices observed trough the sources were protests, “pixações”, graffitis and events organization in squares and another public places From these elements, that show the multiplicity of temporalities and processes, it was developed a possible cartography of Uberlandia from the dialogue with the young people experiences that take participation in the public and private places occupation. As extension of the cartographic production were analyzed relevant questions to the city and the poor young people, in dialogue with the categories downtown, periphery and social classes. In between that, it was found relationships based on inequality, exclusion, connections and disconnections in social and cultural life.
