Entre estética e política: fazer cidade fazendo festa
Abstract
The present work seeks to analyze the dispute
for the use and circulation of the Santist territory, as a focus on the central
neighborhoods. The insular territorial portion of the city is tiny and highly elitist
as we advance toward the beachfront. On the other hand, the distant portions of
the sea are progressively deprioritized in the strategic planning of the
commodification of the Santist territory. In dialogue with the international
literature on clubber culture, but also with authors who bring the debate on
partying to the Latin American context, I aim to build an interface for discussion
of the aesthetics proposed by Boiler Ruim, the city's underground clubber party;
and Alegra Centro, an architectural reform project in the Centro neighborhood.
For this, a bibliographic survey was carried out on the role of the central
neighborhoods in the growth of Santos to be added to the literature on partying.
Interviews were conducted with the organizers of Boiler Ruim, while the
analysis of the documents that regulate and publicly present the Alegra Centro
composed the research methodology. It was possible to list discursive elements
expressed in the construction of the party that allowed to draw parallels and
dissidences of Boiler Ruim with Alegra Centro, shedding light on the dispute
between hegemonic and dissident forms of feeling and modifying the city.
