SUMMARY:

The present doctoral thesis in Social History sought to construct a homotranscartography, aiming to reflect and explain how the daily practices of transvestites and gays resignified and incorporated new meanings to the center of the Plano Piloto of Brasília, Federal District, during the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. For its construction, it was carried out the analysis of legal texts, publications of the Correio Braziliense and the conduction of interviews with two transvestites, Danny Wonderful and Bethynha Surfistinha, and a gay man known as M@na Vida, who played important roles in this region of the city. The reflections presented in this study sought to question the negative senses and meanings that frequently affected these people, their territorial claims, experiences and histories, subjecting them to symbolic violence and the violation of their fundamental rights. The experiences shared by the interviewees made it possible to understand the constructive dynamics of the new design and process of occupation and resignification of space in Brasilia. The dialogue established with these sources was enriched through dialogue with various theoretical contributions, with emphasis on the "practices of space or practiced spaces", by Michel de Certeau; the "itinerant territorialities", as defined by Néstor Perlongher; in addition to the concepts of "stigma and deviant behavior", formulated by Gilberto Velho, as well as several works published by members of the two communities. In this way, this thesis seeks to be a contribution to the consolidation and affirmation of the History of the LGBTQIA+ Population in Brazil, as well as a history of the Federal District beyond the low expectations often imposed on the so-called regional history.
