Resumen

MOLINA, Fabio Silveira. The production of the - Paris of the Tropics and mega events in Rio de Janeiro in the early twentieth century. Finisterra [online]. 2016, n.102, pp.25-45. ISSN 0430-5027.  https://doi.org/10.18055/Finis3816.

The central theme of this article is based on the role of mega-events in the production of Rio de Janeiro s urban space in the early twentieth century. At this time, through considerable urban transformations, the image of the city was associated with - Paris of the Tropics. at the same time, the city hosted two important mega-events: the 1908 National Exhibition and the 1922 International Exhibition. These mega-events were configured as urban strategies promoted by State, and the territorial modernizations arising from the mega-events were highly selective and exclusive, producing even more elite places and socio-spatial segregation. Used as a pretext to urban expansion, production and the conquest of urban lands, the mega-events analyzed induced redefinitions of land uses and their arrangement in the internal space of the city, demonstrating their relevance in the structuring of the city of Rio de Janeiro

Palabras clave : Mega-events; urban geography; production of urban space; urban structuring; 1908 National Exhibition; 1922 International Exhibition.
