Cidades sustentáveis e inteligentes: desafios à cidadania através do planejamento urbano

Abstract

The research work intends to analyze the evolution of the concepts of sustainable and intelligent cities, with a focus on urban and environmental issues, in order to contribute to the definition of sustainable development, in accordance with the principles defined by the Rule of Law, the defense of environment and reducing regional inequalities. In this way, it is proposed to carry out a diagnosis of the legal-regulatory situation applicable to the construction of an ideal city, as opposed to the real identity, aiming to promote sustainable and regional development through urban planning. As a phenomenon that expanded across the globe, urbanization gave rise to social demands and had an impact on the perception of the city as a right through the sociological concept of the “Right to the City”. It turns out that as international law absorbs environmental and human settlement perspectives, the right to the city acquires a new meaning literally and requires adjustments in its applicability. Thus, in addition to establishing sustainable human settlements as a right in the international legal order, Resolution 70/1 - Agenda 2030 - adopted by the United Nations General Assembly, proposed the Sustainable Development Goals-SDGs. The relevance of this research topic lies in Sustainable Development Goal “11”. Sustainable Cities and Communities” The democratic management of smart cities gains prominence with digital governance, associated with Information and Communication Technology-ICTs, influencing public behavior and relying on urban planning. The 1988 Federal Constitution and urban legislation stand out for their ability to address the use and occupation of urban land, taking into account the inseparability between environmental and urban issues. As for the methodology, it is qualitative, theoretical research, whose method is deductive, being developed under an exploratory and descriptive modality. Specifically in relation to technical procedures, bibliographical, legislative and documentary research is used. Through research, the objective is to make considerations about the phenomenon of a more inclusive city, whose purpose is to improve the quality of life of citizens. The general objective of this work is to demonstrate that current urban citizenship is the result of public management or inclusive smart governance, considered as digital governance, implemented through applied technologies (or ICTs) to public policies for smart cities. From there, specific objectives are achieved through understanding the importance of the right to the city in the context of sustainable and smart cities. It is concluded that citizens connect to the city's smart grid as a way of thinking about long-term infrastructure and services, which can flexibly meet the needs of multiple participants, affected in the public or private sector, through aggregation of solutions to coordinate its most diverse functions.
