Housing policies, market and home ownership in Portugal 1 Housing policies, market and home ownership in Portugal Beyond the cultural model Teresa Costa Pinto and Isabel Guerra Introduction 1 In previous articles (Pinto, 2017 ; Pinto and Guerra, 2013) on the dynamics of the Portuguese housing system, the specificity of the Portuguese case in the context of Southern European countries was pointed out, according to the literature on this subject, suggesting the formation of a cluster, characterized by an incipient welfare state, high rates of housing ownership, supported by a “welfare society”, and a residual sector of social housing (Allen et al, 2004). It was argued that the specificity of the Portuguese system was, on the one hand, a late but intense urbanization process, exerting strong constructive pressures on cities (especially since the 1960s), combined with an insufficient supply of housing, both private and public. On the other hand, a late and fragile development of a welfare state, in counter cycle, in the context of a general questioning of its sustainability.

Nõukogudeaegsetest ehitistest on kaitse all sellest üsna marginaalne osa. 1 Valdav osa sellest on unikaalsed ehitised nagu näiteks Lillepaviljon, Linnahall, Tallinna Olümpia Purjespordikeskus, „Kalevi” spordihall jne. Sellest valikust torkab omakorda silma elamuarhitetkuuri alakaitstus – väikeelamutest on nimekirjas all neli 1950. aastate individuaalelamut (Vana-Pärnu maanteel Nõmmel ja Kose teel Maarjamäel), korterelamutest üksnes Tartu mnt-Liivalaia nurgale jääv endine „Dvigateli” stalinistlik elamukompleks. Nimekiri ei peegelda näiteks üldse modernismi (ka postmodernismi) tulekut elamuehitusse ja tööstuslikku ehitamist, mis tegelikult suuresti määras nõukogudeaegse elamuehituse üldpildi. Siiski ehitati paneelmagalate kõrval ka palju huvitavat arhitektuuri unikaalprojektide järgi (nii eramuid kui kortermaju), millest paljud on tänaseni hästi säilinud. Arhitektuuristiilide kõrval on samavõrra oluline käsitleda hooneid, mis kõnelevad ajastu spetsiifilisest ühiskonna- ja elukorraldusest ning sageli vastuolulisest elamupoliitikast (nt. valuutapood, parteinomenklatuuri elamud jne.).

Abstract: Stable access to affordable quality housing is a core feature of public health principles and practices. In this report, we provide an update on the research project “Mapping Public Housing: A Critical Review of the State-subsidised Residential Architecture in Portugal (1910–1974)” (MdH), developed between 2016 and 2019 at the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Porto (FAUP) in Portugal. This funded research project (PTDC/CPC-HAT/1688/2014) brought together an international and multidisciplinary team composed of architects, sociologists, historians, an economist, an anthro- pologist, information scientists and archivists, from different academic levels (senior researchers, postdoctoral, PhD and Master’s degree students), adopting a variety of approaches and operating in a range of different contexts. The aim of the research undertaken was to investigate the reality of social and state-subsidised housing in terms of its architecture, while, at the same time, seeking to broaden our understanding of this phenomenon and of the transition to a democratic regime. Furthermore, this research project was designed to contribute towards the development of common ground for supporting decisions in the environmental, social and economic fields relating to housing Citation: Ramos, R.J.G.; Gonçalves, E.; Lameira, G.; Rocha, L.

    HOW CAN WE QUARANTINE WITHOUT A HOME? RESPONSES OF ACTIVISM AND URBAN SOCIAL MOVEMENTS IN TIMES OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC CRISIS IN LISBON LUÍS MENDES Institute of Geography and Spatial Planning, Universidade de Lisboa, R. Branca Edmée Marques, Lisboa, 1600-276, Portugal. E-mail: [email protected] Received: April 2020; accepted May 2020 ABSTRACT In Lisbon, during the COVID-19 pandemic period, new spaces for contestation and the action of urban social movements intensified, capitalising on the visibility for the right to housing, as a basic human right and an unconditional public health imperative, to fulfil the duties of lockdown and social isolation, imposed by the State of Exception. Its narrative and strategies reinforces the counter-hegemonic movement that denounces the logics of commodification and financialisation in the housing sector, placing hope in a post-capitalist transition in the post-COVID horizon. We conclude that the actors in this urban struggle have limited power over the changes they initiate, or make an effort to inflict, if they are not involved in a concerted and politically integrated action, not least because the achievements they obtain are temporary and exceptional, like the state of emergency imposed by COVID-19. Key words: Urban social movements; urban struggles; housing rights; COVID-19; Lisbon INTRODUCTION crisis, not only turns out to be a condition of worsening socio-territorial inequalities and res- A global emergency situation due to the out- idential segregation of the pre-COVID, but also break of the COVID-19 pandemic obliges an obstacle to full compliance with sanitary Governments to mobilise resources to enable standards.

Local elements of a place and their relations such as urban form and topography, landscape and local climate are essential to define the character and can contribute positively to the planning and design process. In the last decades the distinctiveness of locality has been a central theme in planning policy guidance towards a better practice. To promote character in place making and architectural design, distinctive local patterns of development should be identified. But the most global issue of the current times at the local scale is climate change. It must be clear that climate change is essential to address the design process. This responsibility extends especially to both education structures and local authorities that still lack of a cohesive approach to the problem of sustainability. Nowadays, it is evident that sustainability represents not only an applied philosophy but can help as a generator concept for design process at both local and international level. But if sustainable architecture is an international issue must be more specific to the constraints of every context.

By taking a closer look at two films – Peeter Urbla’s I’m Not a Tourist, I Live Here (Ma pole turist, ma elan siin, 1988) and Ilkka Järvilaturi’s Darkness in Tallinn (Tallinn pimeduses, 1993) – this paper attempts to offer some insights into the dyna‑ mic process of reshaping the cinematic imaginary of urban environments, as well as the psyches, histo‑ ries and experiences of their inhabitants, both individual and collective.
