ABSTRACT
This is an ethnographic and qualitative research based on the principles of intervention research and has worked with life narratives of three homeless women, with the objective of knowing their ways of life, survival tactics and practices of resistance to daily violations of rights. It is discussed how each narrative reveals the different forms of violation and exclusion, but also the forms of resistance, operated in reinventions of the city and everyday life. The forms of resistance, besides telling us other possible ways of life in the face of everyday difficulties and violence, through art, work, solidarity and militancy, make us see the mechanism of power operating in social life in its perverse production of disposable lives.
