Resumo: This paper aims to analyze the conflicts that threaten of eviction the favelas located in the Alto da Boa Vista neighborhood in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from the history of the policies of favelas removal in this municipality. The Alto da Boa Vista neighborhood is placed in the Tijuca Massif, consisting of the immediate surroundings of the Tijuca National Park. It is characterized by great social contrasts, having in its formal part several houses of high standard, as well as thirteen favelas. These favelas located in this neighborhood are threatened of eviction by two main fronts: a law project to implement an Environmental Protection and Urban Recovery Area and a Public Civil Action carried out by the State Public Prosecutor's Office of Rio de Janeiro. These two conflicts are based on justifications related to environmental issues, whether due to environmental risk or degradation, built from fragile arguments in both cases. Thus, it is intended to carry out a brief history of the favela removal policies in the city of Rio de Janeiro, bringing also the achievements related to the right to housing and permanence, as a way of contextualizing and reflecting on the appearance of environmental justifications for the eviction threats suffered by the favelas of Alto da Boa Vista.

O bairro do Alto da Boa Vista localiza-se no Maciço da Tijuca e consiste no entorno imediato do Parque Nacional da Tijuca. Caracteriza-se por grandes contrastes sociais e há, em sua parte formal, diversas casas de alto padrão, assim como treze favelas, ameaçadas de remoção por duas principais frentes: um projeto de im­plementação de uma Área de Proteção Ambiental e Recuperação Urbana e uma Ação Civil Pública pro­posta pelo Ministério Público Estadual do Rio de Janeiro. Os dois conflitos remetem a justificativas relaci­onadas às questões ambientais – seja pelo viés do risco ou da degradação ambiental –, construídas, em ambos os casos, a partir de frágeis argumentações. Assim, pretende-se realizar um breve histórico das políticas de remoção no município do Rio de Janeiro, mostrando também as conquistas relacionadas ao direito à moradia e à permanência, como forma não apenas de contextualizar o aparecimento das justifi­cativas ambientais para as ameaças de remoção sofridas pelas favelas do Alto da Boa Vista, mas também de refletir sobre elas.EDUNIOESTE (Editora da UNIOESTE)2020-06-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://e-revista.unioeste.br/index.php/ambientes/article/view/2205810.48075/amb.v2i1.22058AMBIENTES: Revista de Geografia e Ecologia Política; v. 2 n. 1 (2020): Primeiro Semestre; 2902674-6816reponame:Ambientes (Francisco Beltrão)instname:Universidade Estadual do Oeste do Paraná (UNIOESTE)instacron:UNIOESTEporhttps://e-revista.unioeste.br/index.php/ambientes/article/view/22058/15838Copyright (c) 2020 AMBIENTES: Revista de Geografia e Ecologia Políticainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFonseca, Tiago Boruchovitch2023-07-07T20:07:09Zoai:ojs.e-revista.unioeste.br:article/22058Revistahttps://e-revista.unioeste.br/index.php/ambientesPUBhttps://e-revista.unioeste.br/index.php/ambientes/oairevista.ambientes@unioeste.br2674-68162674-6816opendoar:2023-07-07T20:07:09Ambientes (Francisco Beltrão) - Universidade Estadual do Oeste do Paraná (UNIOESTE)false
