MACIEL, Wellington Ricardo Nogueira. The Urban of Margins of the Camp: For a Sociology of Spaces and Residual Lives. []. , 131, pp.25-50.   30--2023. ISSN 2182-7435.  https://doi.org/10.4000/rccs.14750.

Originally designed to describe and analyze the spaces of extermination built by the totalitarian regimes of the mid-twentieth century, the notion of camp has gained new analytical developments in the social sciences, and has also been used to interpret the making of cities on the peripheries of cities at the beginning of the twenty-first century. This article aims to re-discuss this notion based on the transformations of the urban space caused by the politics of life and death on the outskirts of Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil. If the peripheries in Brazil have always been seen as spaces where human rights have been violated and the most basic principles of citizenship have never become the rule, it is urgent to direct our attention to the urban scales that necrobiopolitics has altered.
