A estruturação do mercado de terra urbana e habitação em Salvador-Ba a partir de 1970

Abstract

The present text tries to examine the development of the urban residential space reproduction in the city of Salvador, Bahia, from the structuring of the urban lands market, organized through the actions of the social agents involved with the local real state market. The discussion on the agrarian speculation and its implications in the reproduction and organization of the urban space becomes an always current fact, since it is directly associated with the issue of the high financial costs referring to the implantation and maintenance of the urban infrastructure; of the not less important inhabitation deficit esteemed, that in 1950 was of 16.539 habitations and in 2000 already reaches 91,170 habitations, of which, in the last period, 98.8% are demanded by families of the social classes of income of up to three minimum wages; and yet to all the precariousness of the peripheral residential areas.
