the metamorphosis of marginality




I found a good study made by the American researcher Janice Perlman about favelas in Rio. Her 1970's book "Myth of Marginality: Urban Poverty and Politics in Rio de Janeiro " has been developed further in 2002 and has been presented to the World Bank under the title "The Metamorphosis of Marginality: The Favelas of Rio de Janeiro: 1969-2002"

you can see the presentation here
