    • Abstract:
      This article compares the neoliberal state sponsored programs such as mass privatization of public goods and divestment in black and brown communities between the two Rio de Janeiro neighborhoods highlighted in Costa Vargas’ work and similar programs in Chicago, USA. The author offers some strategies that move beyond surviving these attacks and poses critical questions to Costa Vargas’ continued work in this area. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
