Summary
"Compares two favelas in greater Rio de Janeiro, one based on clientelistic politics and the other on community activism. Using solid fieldwork, this profitable study of traditional politics and emerging political challenges is an excellent example of an interdisciplinary approach to the study of popular sectors"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
