Abstract

The city of Porto in the nineteenth-century is an area of industrialization, modernization, population and urban growth, but it is also an area of economic and social disparities. The industrial age led to the increase of the number of rich bourgeois and created a new social class, the factory workers, eventually generating a “hidden city” dominated by the workers, who lived in the same city space but at the same time were excluded from this same space, generating situations of tension and conflict often exteriorized in the last decades of the nineteenth century through demonstrations and strikes.
