Resumen
CAROLINO, Júlia. Living (in) a “precarious neighbourhood”. Questioning based on three housing trajectories. CIDADES [online]. 2023, n.au23, pp.4-14. Epub 09-Oct-2023. ISSN 2182-3030. https://doi.org/10.15847/cct.29247.
This article addresses the theme of housing for Afro-Portuguese populations, with a focus on Cova da Moura, a Lisbon neighbourhood often portrayed as an African migrant enclave and its housing precarity. It draws on three biographies that illustrate the life experiences of families with migrant trajectories that connect them to both Cape Verde and Portugal. The article aims to show the complexity of realities that are often simplistically considered as situations of linear poverty and disempowerment. In particular, it aims to contribute to more democratic ways of considering different issues regarding ‘othered’ neighbourhoods in the Lisbon Metropolitan Area and devising ways to address them.
