Urban uprisings between revolutionary openings and reactionary outcomes: Making sense of the 2013 “June Days” in Brazil
Through a Rancièrian reading of the political as a performative staging of egalitarian dissent, this article conducts an event analysis of the 2013 Brazilian “June Days” uprisings. It identifies and challenges two broad narratives on these uprisings’ emergence and significance: a narrative of June’s “Revolutionary Openings” that views June as a sociopolitical opening that brought new actors and imaginaries into being, and a narrative of June’s “R…
Contentious Politics of Slums: Understanding Different Outcomes of Community Resistance against Evictions in Rio de Janeiro
Between 2010 and 2016, over 65,000 slum dwellers were forcibly evicted in Rio de Janeiro. This article compares three cases of anti-eviction resistance over this period. While the three case study communities were all relatively successful in contesting evictions, the outcomes (material, social, political-symbolic) of their mobilizations were different. To understand how and why, we examine and compare the structures and processes of mobilization…
Eluding the Esculacho: A Masculinities Perspective on the Enduring Warrior Ethos of Rio de Janeiro’s Police
The Police “Pacification” Unit (Unidade de Polícia Pacificadora—UPP) program in Rio de Janeiro pledged to pacify both militarized police officers and the communities they patrolled: favelas occupied by armed drug traffickers. While the UPPs promoted a softer approach, police practices remained permeated with logics of violence. In understanding why, this article examines how an enduring “warrior ethos” influences the occupational culture of the p…
Politics of Urban Transformation in Pre-Olympic Rio de Janeiro: Contentions and Confluences Between Citizen- and Market-centred Agendas
This article uses an urban upgrading programme (PAC Favela) as a lens for examining the contextual dynamics and forms of neoliberal urban development in pre-Olympic Rio de Janeiro. Critical scholarship has contended that Rio’s entrepreneurial governance and mega-event induced state of exception pushed forward a neoliberal urban agenda. While not rejecting this overarching narrative, the present article argues that this tendency was shaped by cont…
"BRICS, megaeventos esportivos e o Rio de Janeiro como "cidade de exceção
Nos países do BRICS, "cidades de exceção" constroem coalizões de governo e empresários em busca de oportunidades de negócio. O esporte combina imagem e acumulação, assim como o pretexto para realizar a pacificação e a retirada da população. No Rio, a Copa do Mundo e os Jogos Olímpicos geraram uma espécie de revolução urbana, indicativa de uma consciência social de que mesmo as pessoas mais pobres têm "direito à cidade" e que a coalizão de classe …
