ABSTRACT

This article discusses the importance of the territory in the juvenile experiences, especially in urban occupations and in resettlement process, in counterpoint to the ideal of the city and subjectivity in the removals. Results of the research “Moving territories: youth narratives about living, reside, resist”, held in Post Graduate Program in Social Psychology (Master) at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS). This study gathered data from a university extension project in partnership with a Primary Care Health Service in a community in an urban resettlement process associated to the 2014 World Cup in Porto Alegre, Brazil. The participants narrated their experiences with their territories and the research questioned the influences of these experiences in their subjectivity. The main methodological references are the Literaly Montage method, Narration, Flânerie, of Walter Benjamin.
