"PORTO ALEGRE VIVE": (CO)OPERAÇÃO E FORMAÇÃO DE REDES NA ORGANIZAÇÃO DA CIDADE

Abstract

This paper presents a cartography of networks in (co)operation, in an urban movement: Porto Alegre Vive. We used the network topology for centralized, decentralized and distributed networks; some principles of complex thinking: dialogic, hologram and self-eco-organization, as well as the perspective of order-disorder-organization. The results point to communication forms; to centralization and mediation, as well as the distribution, emphasizing a non-bou­ndary paradigm. The cooperation is understood as cause and effect of more autonomous relations and, therefore, more democratic.
