The Southern Urban Political in Transcalar Perspective: A View from the Squatter Movements of Belo Horizonte -- 13. Counter Publics and Counter Spaces This book examines the political and economic trajectories of cities following the 2008 financial crisis. The authors claim that in this era-which they dub "late neoliberalism"-urban spaces, institutions, subjectivities, and organizational forms are undergoing processes of radical transformation and recomposition. The volume deftly argues that the urban political horizon of late neoliberalism is ambivalent; marked by many progressive mobilizations for equality and justice, but also by regressive forces of austerity, exploitation, and domination. |
