Exploring residential segregation in cities through collective political capabilities
This paper investigates the phenomenon of residential segregation, its harms and processes, and addresses the critical questions of how it contributes to capability deprivation and whether capability approaches focused on the individual level can adequately assess such deprivation. We argue that residential segregation not only creates physical barriers and erodes social bonds between communities but also disrupts important power dynamics between…
Poverty as capability deprivation
Amartya Sen has argued that poverty means much more than lacking income: it means that a person falls short of securing a basic level of capabilities. His main justification for this claim is that we need to look at what is important in a person's life (what a person's actual functionings are, and what alternative outcomes could be achieved), rather than just at what a person has. In this article, I argue that, although Sen's conceptualisation ex…

In-cash Transfers
Over the last few years, there has been an increase in discussions advocating in-cash programmes as a way to alleviate poverty. Indeed, this represents a leap forward in comparison to in-kind programmes. However, little progress, at least in developing countries, has been achieved in answering the question of how the state should transfer the means of redressing deprivation to those who are living in poverty. This article addresses this issue by …
On the need for political integration in cities
Cities are large and densely populated areas, a fact that can influence how individuals relate to each other. However, the intensity and dynamism of cities make them a site for particular kinds of divisions, which may produce inequalities. This is visible through residential segregation, which is the territorial division of groups into largely homogeneous areas correlated with socio-economic disparities and individuals’ negative perceptions of ot…
Cosmopolitismo e Multiculturalismo
O texto apresenta um estudo crítico sobre duas teorias da justiça: a cosmopolita, desenvolvida por Thomas Pogge, e a multicultural, por Will Kymlicka. Do primeiro, investigam-se as vantagens de se ter uma preocupação moral com os habitantes do mundo, destacando as desvantagens de se ignorar as singularidades culturais. Do segundo, ressalta-se a prioritária legitimidade das demandas culturais. Apresenta-se, assim, a importância dos direitos difere…
