Fazer o que não foi feito com o que já foi feito: o reuso como alternativa de desenvolvimento para as cidades brasileiras

Abstract

This graduation thesis aims to elaborate on the reuse of built heritage as a possibility for the development of Brazilian cities in the face of the abandonment of central areas. By considering the scope of the issues surrounding the subject, arguments are outlined to understand cities, reuse and the complexities of construction in the face of global climate emergencies, from the context of the global south. A bibliographical study and a list of practical precedents, case studies, are established as the main references to support the discussions established, in order to sustain the ideas in words and actions. Based on this, it is elaborated on the possibilities of action in the context of medium-sized cities, specifically the city-center of Juiz de Fora - MG, from the perspective of the reuse of built heritage and the need for construction logics that respond to the global emergencies and local complexities, to be elaborated practically in the second stage of this work.
