Sumario:In the context of a globalization of capital that fosters a "war of the places, in particulary at the “South global", favelas, paradoxically, have become a strategic place that attracts foreign and national capital. In 2011, the first urban cable car system installed in Brazil, in the favelas of the Complexo do Alemão, in Rio de Janeiro city, was inspired by the Medelín (Colombia) model. I will argue that the architectural and urban icons that characterize urban interventions in the globalized world give cities, and more specifically Latin American favelas, a "generic" physiognomy without eliminating the marks of their specific processes of formation and spatial organization, neither the inequalities and nor the sociocultural practices that characterize them and confer them singularity.
