Description - Manifesting Democracy?: Urban Protests and the Politics of Representation in Brazil Post 2013 by Maite Conde

This volume explores the series of public protests – manifestações – that took place in a number of Brazilian cities in June and July 2013, when thousands of people took to the streets to demand improvements in urban infrastructures.
  • Critically examines the role these protests played in politics, the political and their relationships to urban space and culture
  • Analyses their connections to the emergence of a ‘New Right’ in Brazil, which saw the election of Bolsonaro
  • Includes first-hand accounts and brings together contributions from both activists and scholars within a number of different fields (geography, history, philosophy, art, political economy)
  • The first interdisciplinary English language anthology to address Brazil’s 2013 protests and the broader political and cultural questions they raise
  • A major contribution to Brazilian and Latin American Studies in Europe and the USA, as well as interdisciplinary studies of social movements, urban culture and politics
