Abstract
STEPHAN, Ítalo and RABELO, Noara. Socio-spacial segregation in the historical cities of Minas Gerais: an analysis of Diamantina, MG. GOT [online]. 2019, n.18, pp.38-56. ISSN 2182-1267. https://doi.org/10.17127/got/2019.18.002.
Real estate valuation in areas of economic interest boosted peripheral transformation and expansion movements. Such valuation can be related to real estate speculation, responsible for several factors that can lead to gentrification and other urban problems. The present work analyzes the duality of the valorization of different spaces, which can lead to socio-spatial segregation in the cities, including the "historical" ones of Minas Gerais, to which the present work was focused, including Diamantina. An analysis of these aspects allowed us to conclude that urban space should be understood in its entirety and that the social function of property should not be disregarded and overcome by real estate interest and disordered growth in the city.
