The right to housing as a struggle and recognition: one Honneth reading for Belo Horizonte / O direito à moradia como luta e reconhecimento: uma leitura de Honneth para Belo Horizonte

Resumo

Abstract

This paper investigates whether the way the housing realized in North Vector of the metropolitan region of Belo Horizonte in recent years, especially in the case of "Isidoro" occupation, can be identified as recognition policy within the meaning of Axel Honneth that social struggles allow personal fulfillment - and the very popular movements claiming the effectiveness of fundamental rights. Critical to planning legislation, especially at a municipal level of production, in that it will legitimize the State's option for non-recognition, if not carry the right to housing and concomitantly not honor human dignity and democracy.

Keywords: housing policies – Belo Horizonte – recognition – critical theory – Honneth.
