Rights without citizenship? Participation, family and community in Rio de Janeiro

Abstract

This chapter shows how poor families in Rio de Janeiro are reinterpreting notions of citizenship on the basis of their experience of exclusion from formal political and economic structures. Owing to copyright restrictions, only the first 3 pages are attached, together with a link to the book at Zed Books.
