Abstract

MENEZES, Marluci. Neighbourhood: reverberations of an idea in a moving Lisbon. Cadernos do Arquivo Municipal [online]. 2019, vol.ser2, n.12, pp.15-26. ISSN 2183-3176.

The article addresses the notion of ‘neighbourhood' as an important symbolic resource of the imaginary of Lisbon today, not only confirming the transformative continuity that the city is “a city of neighbourhoods”, but also influencing the everyday reality of these neighbourhood places. For this purpose, a re-visitation of the notion of neighbourhood in literature is carried out. It is then exemplifies, through certain cases, some resources to the neighbourhood notion and its re-signification of the concept, seeking to observe some of the contemporary problems of the city and, as such, its neighbourhoods.

Keywords : Neighbourhood; Continuity; Change; Re-signification; City.
