This paper analyzes the protests and popular demonstrations that took place in the city of Belo Horizonte between 2012 and 2015, having as theoretical background the new mobility paradigm. Through a quantitative and qualitative analysis of three hundred and twenty three journal articles and reports, firstly we verify he composition and intensity of the protest motives that claim the right, access and quality of urban mobility. In a second moment, it was shown how the spaces of mobility and the movement of the bodies present in those events are fundamental in the composition of performative repertoires of political groups. Our finds show that urban mobility is not only a complex and extremely important political agenda, but that the very act of moving and / or interrupting the flow of movement of this city are fundamental strategies in the search for visibility and dissemination of political challenges on the public scene.

Palabras clave : urban mobility; public space; protests; politics, urban sociology.
