Resumen
The fast urban growth for which Natal city it passed in last the 20 years made to emerge
diverse forms of reconfiguration of the space, amongst them, the new forms to live, that is,
the horizontal closed condominiums. The present study it has as objective to argue,
initially, the production of the space from the horizontal closed condominiums of Green
Village and Green Woods, analyzing which are the main consequences that the
construction of these enterprises bring for the city. For in such a way, we made a research
that had as base the quantitative procedures, however, that it privileged the procedures of a
qualitative boarding. The data had been raised from two sources: in the first one a bibliographical research and on subjects was made documentary involving the closed
condominiums, in second interviews the inhabitants of the condominiums in order to get
information that in disclosed which to them had been the reasons that had taken them to
choose such enterprises as form of housing as well as, to trace a economic partner profile
of these social groups. The gotten results had been analyzed through one it searches to a
theoretical base. For this, we made a reflection on the different forms of present
segregation in the urban space, as and because they develop themselves and which are the
social agents who had produced this reality. Inside of this perspective, we can say that the
horizontal condominiums closed produce new practical spatial partner that more provide
the self segregation of the supplied social groups and the formation of sites that tend the
social homogeneity. O r?pido crescimento urbano pelo qual o munic?pio de Natal passou nos ?ltimos 20 anos
fez emergir diversas formas de reconfigura??o do espa?o, dentre elas, as novas formas de
morar, ou seja, os condom?nios fechados horizontais. O presente estudo tem como objetivo
discutir, inicialmente, a produ??o do espa?o a partir dos condom?nios fechados horizontais
Green Village e Green Woods, analisando quais s?o as principais conseq??ncias que a
constru??o desses empreendimentos trazem para a cidade. Para tanto, fizemos uma
pesquisa que teve como base os procedimentos quantitativos, por?m, que privilegiou os
procedimentos de uma abordagem qualitativa. Os dados foram levantados a partir de duas
fontes: na primeira foi feita uma pesquisa bibliogr?fica e documental sobre temas
envolvendo os condom?nios fechados, na segunda entrevistamos os moradores dos
condom?nios a fim de obter informa??es que nos revelassem quais foram os motivos que
os levaram a escolherem tais empreendimentos como forma de moradia assim como, tra?ar
um perfil socioecon?mico desses grupos sociais. Os resultados obtidos foram analisados a
luz de um arcabou?o te?rico. Para isso, fizemos uma reflex?o sobre as diferentes formas de
segrega??o presentes no espa?o urbano, como e por que elas se desenvolvem e quais s?o os
agentes sociais que produziram esta realidade. Dentro desta perspectiva, podemos dizer
que os condom?nios fechados horizontais engendram novas pr?ticas socioespaciais que
proporcionam a auto-segrega??o dos grupos sociais mais abastados e a forma??o de ?reas
que tendem a homogeneidade social.
