The construction of Fortaleza’s urban space is marked by processes of socio-spatial segregation, also expressed by the cases of expropriations/removals of poor communities located mainly in places that draw estate speculation. Expropriation/removal decrees tend to consider the impacts on the life of the residents as relevant analyzes concerning to the legal and structural aspects of the houses, without considering the affective and psychosocial implications from the people regarding their place of residence. Therefore, this research aim was to analyze the feelings and emotions involved in the expropriation/removal process of communities and their psychosocial implications. In order to reach it, we sought to I) discribe the socio-spatial segregation process in the city of Fortaleza, based on the Vila Vicentina da Estância case; II) understand the affectivity present in the person-community relationship; and III) Analyse the psychosocial implications of that conflict in the daily life of the residents. Based on Social Psychology and Community Psychology from Latin America within a Historical-Cultural base, and support from Environmental Psychology from a transactionalist perspective, the research was guided by the ethical and political commitment to the reality of the studied community residents, with the perspective of construction of socially relevant knowledge. Anchored in the qualitative approach, through participatory action research , the researcher inserted himself into the daily life of the community during the expropriation/removal process, characterizing this as a continuous moment in which the residents feel threatened by the effective removal. For the corpus construction, it was used as main tools I) Diário de Campo; II) Affective Maps Generator Instrument, with coupled interview; and III) Culture Circle. Content analysis was used in the treatment and in the interpretation of the collected information. Among the results, the affective image of contrasts was highlighted in the affective mapping, expressing indicators of belonging and pleasantness resulted from a long lived experience with the community (emotional background) that contrasts with insecurity and destruction affective indicators, emerged not from the experience in itself with the community, but from external threats of removal (emotional front plane). As a consequence of this emotional configuration, the residents organized themselves in a resistance movement, composed mostly of women over 50 years old, who perform several community activities, revealing a process marked by an esteem for the place of active and potentioning implication.
