Abstract

NOBRE, Paulo José Lisboa. Landscape as patrimony: urban social function. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2007, vol.7, n.2. ISSN 1808-4281.

It is understood that singular landscapes constitute the cultural patrimonies of the cities, once they are part of the daily life of the citizens and are present in their social representations. Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, is a city where the ambient qualities are well defined and known by the beauty of the area where it is located. The urban legislation tried to preserve the features of the local landscape delimiting “Areas for Controlling Building High”, destined to protect the scenic value of some parts of the city. On the other hand, the civil construction sector has made constant pressure in sense to abolish or to modify this legal instrument. This work tries to raise elements about the subject at local level, in sense to use Natal City experience to contribute for the formulation of indicators to raise the question about the lack of measure for subjective values, for example the cultural and affective value of the landscape

Keywords : Landscape; Patrimony; Urban legislation.
