摘要:This paper discusses how the patterns and impacts of socio-spatial segregation are articulated with racial inequalities in Brazilian society, based on data from the Demographic Censuses, National Household Surveys, and some empirical research conducted in Salvador, capital of the State of Bahia, which is currently the fourth largest city in the country and where black population represent the absolute majority. In order to do so, it initially refers to the question of segregation and the so-called “territory effect”, addressing the literature on this phenomenon and its development. It analyses how segregation patterns are articulated with racial inequalities, and how the concentration of poor and mostly black residents in homogeneous, precarious and unassisted areas aggravates their dispossession and their vulnerability, emphasizing that the differentiated appropriation of urban territory also contributes to the persistence and worsening of racial inequalities in Brazil.
