A questão domiciliar no Distrito do Guaibim em Valença-Ba: percepções sobre o fenômeno da segunda residência

Abstract

This dissertation is based on an investigation about the housing issue in the District of Guaibim in Valença-BA Brazil from the verification and reflexion about the elements of perception about second dwellings in the place. The general objective was to analyze what are the most frequent issues in the discourses that express the perceptions about the phenomenon of second dwellings, in order it would be possible to bring to light some alternatives for the minimization of negative impacts in the place. The problem questions to what extent the elements of perception of Guaibim contribute for an analysis of the impacts of its most expressive housing issue, second dwellings. The textual structure was designed to present the theme theoretically, diagnostically and turned to the presentation of the results, in this sequence. In the first section, the discussion was turned to the concepts that nurtured this study. The second was oriented to present how the issue of second dwellings characterizes and defines the place, being based on the space analysis categories of Milton Santos: shape, structure, function and process. The third section lists the speeches of main social actors, so it would possible to verify the elements previously mentioned. The qualitative analysis was preponderant, so even when quantitative indicators were brought, the interpretation and the reflexibility prevailed. The inductive method allowed the results to be found in theoretical fonts, documents, statistics, passing through critical discussions, until it was possible to get to more defining conclusions. In the final verification, the conclusion is that the second dwelling phenomenon on Guaibim is not planned and has deficit management. This condition pointed out to critical conflicts of social, political and environmental orders. It is expected that this study may assist in following works of planning, collective decision-making and in individual attitudes that face possible conflicts on that place.
