Abstract
In order to answer the question "how to build the experience of motherhood in popular urban community in Recife? we rely particularly on the contributions of two authors: the theory of social experience by Dubet, and sociology of the generation by Luc Boltanski. These theoretical approaches are articulated with three dimensions: a temporal dimension, which highlights not only the historical context in which the experiment takes place, but especially the diachronic nature of the experience itself; and a relational dimension, which highlights not only on the relationship between mother and child, but also those that grow with various groups or networks that are created around the child and mother. Thus our research protocol takes a new turn to break away without losing much of what is the theoretical basis of our research itself. Why is the issue of space needed for us to understand the experience of motherhood in the women of a city's working-class?
