Resumo(s)
As cidades, designadas por vezes como espaços distópicos e mercantilizados onde predominam o individualismo e a competição, são palco de fenómenos decorrentes de processos de urbanização que afetam de forma muito diferenciada os territórios que as compõem. Ao mesmo tempo, a forma como os indivíduos se organizam e constroem a sua vida social varia segundo o espaço ao qual destinam as mais variadas esferas da vida humana, como o trabalho, as áreas de residência, e reservadas aos tempos de lazer. Em 2021, na minha cidade, num bairro que não é o meu, conheci a Associação Roots. A Associação tem origem em 2019, numa tentativa de um morador desse bairro reavivar os sentimentos de apoio mútuo e solidariedade que eram tão valorizados na comunidade do seu bairro de origem, de pré-realojamento. Passados quatro anos, é agora fruto de vários processos de mudança. É esta a viagem que me proponho relatar, resultante do trabalho de campo e da minha experiência enquanto membro da Associação, debruçando-me sobre três pontos de análise: estratégia da Associação entre a ação informal e formal; organização interna do grupo com base numa ideologia partilhada entre os membros; espaço que a Associação ocupa no bairro (local) e na comunidade (relações interpessoais).
Cities, sometimes referred to as dystopian and mercantilized spaces where individualism and competition are prevalent , are the scene of phenomena resulting from urbanization processes that affect the territories that make them up in very different ways. At the same time, the way in which individuals organize and build their social lives varies according to the space to w hich they allocate the most varied spheres of human life, such as work, residential areas and leisure time. In 2021, in my city, in a neighborhood that is not my own, I met the Roots Association. The Association originated in 2019, in an attempt by a resid ent of that neighborhood to revive the feelings of mutual support and solidarity that were so valued in the community of his original, pre relocation neighborhood. Four years on, the mission of supporting the community is still the same, but now it has und ergone several changes . This is the journey I propose to tell you about, resulting from my fieldwork and my experience as a member of the Association, focusing on three points of analysis: the Association's strategy between informal and formal action; the group's internal organization based on an ideology shared by the members; the space the Association occupies in the neighborhood (local) and in the community (interpersonal relations).
