| dc.description.abstract | Neoliberal urban development often entails major conflicts between the requirements of capital and those of local citizens, particularly the low income population. This process is exaggerated in rapidly globalizing cities and even more so in hosting major events such as the football World Cup and the Olympics. Here it seems the political consensus for showcasing the city to the outside world and ensuring timely preparations sweeps all objections aside and dislocates many people from their homes in the process. During the past decade a number of authors have reflected on the transformation of the mode of state regulation and its impact on production of space in Brazil since the end of the military dictatorship in 1985. Accordingly we can note the shift from a ‘roll-back’ neo-liberal position in the 1990s to one of a ‘roll-out’ neo-liberal regime with developmental state tendencies in the 2000s to present (Klink, 2013; Klink and Denaldi, 2015; Rolnik, 2013). | |
