- 3. Inclusive: meaning economic growth leading to social development as well! Because Rio has been historically developed under a process of spatial-segregation (when poor people were evicted from the central areas), creating what sociologists called a`broken city卒; This process has made social mobility very difficult (as poor people access the worse educational facilities and as it卒s harder to get a job when you live in a slum - Gutierrez, etc al), This situation generated high criminality (not only because of bad education and job opportuni- ties but also because of a perception of being different - Gutierrez, etc al), A context that have made difficult for Rio de Janeiro to really profit from its vocation as a tour- istic city (Veja Jun 2010) NOW: with better economic climate in Brazil, the city has been investing in cultural facilities (iconic mu- seums) and in organizing sport mega-events (panAmerica games, World Cup, Olympics), as a way of attracting tourists and generating economic growth (construction sector and split over)
