| Sumario: | This work reviews the contributions of Dr. Matheus da Silveira Grandi, professor at the Faculty of Teacher Education of the State University of Rio de Janeiro. During an international research stay, I had the opportunity to interview him on multiple occasions. His work offers a theoretical-methodological framework for analyzing the scalar dimension of human spatiality. Through studying the everyday trajectories of housing activists in Brazil’s homeless movement, Grandi demonstrates how collective struggle serves as a medium through which activists converge and produce scalarities as emergent outcomes of their daily practices. His contribution reframes socio-spatial processes through the lens of continuity rather than rupture: scalar dynamics are interpreted from the perspective of everyday life, reinforcing the notion of unity in socio-spatial practice. Here, scales are reconceptualized as products of practice rather than tools for practice. Crucially, struggle becomes a central signifier that binds not only space but also futures through quotidian acts. |
