Security devices and segregation measures that promote homogeneities and heterogeneities in the western sub-region of the SPMA

Resumo

From the perspective of security devices and segregation measures, in a gradient of low-, middle-, and high-income populations together with buildings of low, standard, and high construction levels, this study examines the socio-spatial segregation in peripheral territories in the western sub-region of the São Paulo Metropolitan Area (SPMA). Employing the Street View tool and engaging with visual data via hyperlinks and QR codes, the objective is to illustrate, on a more individual level - at the scale of the human body and from a pedestrian's perspective -, how segregation measures materialized in urban space are related to the homogeneities and heterogeneities that coexist in peripheral territories, the very configuration of the urban environment, together with its social interactions, and formative processes. By drawing on statistical data regarding victimization, based on references from the fields of anthropology and sociology, and analyzing contrasting situations along access routes for housing units through to large real estate developments, the study highlights how individualistic measures, to varying degrees, influence the design of the city and the everyday life of the population.
