MOLANO CAMARGO, Frank. The Right to the City: From Henri Lefebvre to the Analysis about the Contemporary Capitalist City. Folios [online]. 2016, n.44, pp.3-19. ISSN 0123-4870.

The right to the city, defined by Henri Lefebvre in 1967 as the right of urban inhabitants to build, decide and create the city, and make of it a privileged space of anti-capitalist struggle, is again at the center of political debate. Social scientists, social movements, international aid agencies and States take it as a benchmark for policy analysis and to discuss the urban changes in contemporary capitalist cities. This article discusses the assumptions made by Lefebvre in 1967 and the transformation that the concept of right to the city has had from authors such as David Harvey, Edward Soja and Ana Fani Alessandri Carlos.

Palavras-chave : Rigth to the city; production of space; capitalist urbanism; space alternatives.
